WaterField already has new suede sleeves out, cut precisely to fit the new MacBooks. Great for anti-scratch, not so much for falls or unexpected use as a seat cushion.
The marketing pitch they sent was amusingly aggressive, given that it’s just a $30 notebook sleeve: “Tech-savvy BoingBoing readers will want to know in time for the holidays.”
Suede Jacket Sleeve [WaterField]
I have iphone and ipod sleeves made of this same material from them. Simple but effective for what it is.
For what it’s worth, I use their Cargo and Sleevecase and their both bombproof.
