Bar Refaeli Stopped at Tel Aviv's International Airpoirt for Not Declaring iPad

Earlier this week, supermodel Bar Refaeli, known for her runway and bikini modeling, was caught at Tel Aviv's international airport trying to bring her new iPad without declaring it with Israeli customs.

(Yes, she is none other than the supermodel on the cover of Sports Illustrated's 2010 Swimsuit Issue.)

Believe it or not, items brought into Israel worth more than around $200 are subject to duties and her iPad which was in her suitcase, during a brief commercial visit, seemed to have caught the authorities attention.

Two weeks ago Israel lifted its ban on the Apple iPad popular tablet computer two weeks ago. Import restrictions were initially imposed over concerns the the device's wireless signal could disrupt other devices.

Go figure!
