"Must Have" Macbook Air Accessories

[aleni]

My iPhone is also tethered via Bluetooth. Great feature on the go... until a 3G deadzone

tethering with bluetooth really drains the iphone battery so fast.

That's why you plug it into the car charger - not many laptop car chargers or at least not something I own

So I made a christmas list of a few things for my MBA. I already have a ACD and bluetooth keyboard w/ magic mouse. But on the list I included the Mstand, belkin powered 4 port usb hub, usb superdrive, and a leather sleeve. Anyone think of anything else I should ask for possibly for the MBA?

I bought a small item that's kind of nice.

An 8GB Store N Go by Verbatim for $25

It's designed for Mac and allows you to split the USB drive and have a password protected area. You can also have the private area and public area formatted 2 different ways. Such as for Mac and the other one FAT.

A neat toy for little money!

Save your screen/LCD when the lid is closed

These are great - ever notice Apple laptop screens that have key impressions on the screen? Or trackpad clicker marks in the bezel?

The only thing I have is the Incase slip on case and a USB mouse. Don't need anything else really.

Next we will hear "guys that have MBAs use Magnums". lol

Kinda negates "thin and light"

"Thin and Light" is the type of ladies we pick up

Colourfastt, I love that bag so much I finally had to delurk to ask what kind it is!

My must-have: a Timbuk2 Curly-Q quilted laptop sleeve. That thing has taken a couple of decent hits, and my beloved little Air is none the worse for it.

As stated it is the Muzetto by WaterField ... I not only have the 13" bag (and a sleeve) for my Air, I bought the 10" man purse.

A Kensington USB Hub

A keyboard cover

A good screen cleaner

A decent case

Your tastes may vary, but I would get something in these categories.
