Those peel-off window stickers (usually with a holiday theme) cling  
quite well to the iBook plastic.

I've tried to talk my son (who's much more graphically inclined than  
me) into drawing some artwork that could be transferred onto cling  
film (or whatever that stuff is called) that could be stuck to in  
iBook. Bonus points for working the Apple logo into the design: I  
suggested a Tolkien-esque scene, with a tree branch in the foreground  
that the apple could dangle from.

Unfortunately, I can't get him to move on it. Too bad; I think it  
could be a money-maker for him.
