So I am wondering what the deal is here. The laptop has been out for a month and a half, and there's still nothing from any of the "big boys" out there:
Incase: They said mid November when I emailed them earlier this month. Still not seeing anything in-store or on their website.
Tucano: They too said by end of november. I've seen some new generic cases, but every Apple laptop has a Tucano Neoprene Custom Case for it, and this one seems to be still waiting :-(
Speck: I was in an apple store and they claimed the Speck rep was in the store the day before and stated "within a week" ... that was November 2.
Sena: Nothing for the 11", couple new designs for the 13" but I'm guessing they're made with specs of the old in mind.
Crumpler: Still the closest match is for the iPad, which is what I'm using... it's a great fit, except the fact that about 3/4 of an inch of the MBA 11" hangs out the end, which people think is funny, haha, okay yeah it's a little funny. It's like when you have a hole in your sock and the tip of your toe sticks out. Hard not to notice and giggle.
Kennsington\Timbuktu\STM\BUILT: Nada from any of these guys.
Just seems odd to me. There have literally been only 2 or 3 made to date... The hippy corduroy one, the from a crappy company (MY opinion from experience ordering it) SF Bags Sleeve\Envelope, and then a couple random things made for other products that people have gotten their 11" to fit into loosely .... You'd think companies would be rushing to put something out, as buyers would be flocking with their pent-up-demand based on all the 11" Air's sold, plus christmas coming up, yet I don't see where any of the major players have even ANNOUNCED that something is coming.
What's going on here?
