Crazed dictator running your country? There's an app for that.

In a bizarre twist of events, North Korea manufacturers have produced the "Korean Ipad" or as it is known in the Korea peninsula, the Samjiyon is the epitome of North Korea ignoring copyrighted patents and international law. This introduction into the tablet family has no internet access which would ordinarily be an issue when it comes to tablets, but in the land of forced labour camps and crippling poverty, the preloaded device is a certified marvel of modern technology. Oddly enough, the device comes with a copy of "Gone with the wind" preinstalled. Margarett Mitchell's story is an American classic, but has found a cult following in the Hermit Kingdom, a land well known for its distaste for the west and has even been used to teach North Korea agents rudimentary english. One of the great joys of following the daily events in North Korea are the everyday ironic moments such as this. Is it breaking news that will shape our world today? Perhaps not, but stories like these make following North Korea well worth it.
