World's Most Perfect MacBook Air Case, Designed By Jona Bechtolt

World's Most Perfect MacBook Air Case, Designed By Jona Bechtolt

At the Macworld keynote, Steve Jobs pulled Air out of a manila envelope, and now the folks at Engadget are giving props to the "quick-thinking duo" Jona Bechtolt and Claire L. Evans, who designed AirMail, a replica case made of "durable upholstery-grade vinyl and lined with fuzzy, soft fleece." Handmade, apparently. "Oh, if only we were this clever," say the Engadgeteers. But no mention that when he's not busy becoming a tech-blog darling, Bechtolt's busy being a music-blog darling as YACHT. No surprise the laptop-beat pop man's got a crush on computers, but now we finally realize why Bechtolt left the Blow; dude had to focus on his career capitalizing on Apple fever. Only $29.95! See a penny, pick it up.

people are always stealing my ideas! if i knew how to sew i would have already started mass producing fleece manila folders.

and that's not to mention my idea for a computer that also cuts hair and makes french fries.

Slash gear , engadget, maclife, and slash dot are all doing pieces on the newest sleeve for the Macbook air , I picked up a sleeve from www.interofficemac.com that is the best thing yet , it is the best envelope style manila sleeve to be manufactured to date. I met the owner and he is great and they are going to be in Apple stores soon and already have resellers in the UK and a bunch here in the United States. I met the owner in San francisco and he turned me on to his sleeve and I am telling you he could get 100.00 each from the quality he has in this sleeve.I am an Apple employee and this is how I met him and his wife, they were giving the managers at all the Apple stores free sleeves with there names embroidered on them and even sent one to Steve jobs himself with Steve's name on it and this is how the strings got pulled to get them in the stores. It also comes with a zipper and enough padding that you will not have to worry about a drop. Check it out www,interofficemac.com. Save your money don't bother with an Air mail. You can see it is a cheap sleeve and they wont even ship it, I got my money back from Air mail
