What is RSS?

I've been running The PDA Guy at its own domain for a few years now. It's where I shoot the breeze about those funky little devices that nerds hid in their pockets.

Today, PDAs are everywhere - restaurants, parking inspectors, boardrooms. Today, they're called smartphones and everyone's got one. I'll tell you what's hot, what's new and give you lowdown on what's coming.

Where are the MacBook Air Accessories?

Well, it's been almost a week since I took delivery of my MacBook Air and I'm pretty happy. Despite all the reviews panning it when it was released I've not encountered any of the hassles those so-called experts said that I would. The thing is, the MacBook Air is as much as desktop replacement as the Eee PC. In other words, the MacBook Air is designed to be an accessory system. My main work system is a 20" iMac. The MacBook Air covers me for email, browsing and creating a few docs.

The problem is - there aren't very many decent MacBook Air specific accessories. There are plenty of cases for 13" notebooks but most are quite chunk - obviously designed for larger notebooks that are an inch or more thick. For the odd occasion where a USB hub would be handy where are the nice aluminium-look, slim line models? A Google for "MacBook Air accessories" doesn't reveal anything special.

The only case I've seen that I've liked is this one from Mac Case.

If you're one of my regular readers or a reseller that has some ideas for MacBook Air accessories that I should review or look at send me an email at anthony at pocketmojo dot net or reply to this thread.
