The Crave is only available in navy blue, however besides the 16-inch backpack form you can get it in a 15.6-inch slipcase and a smaller netbook size. The backpack is $50 which isn't so bad considering it could double as a travel pillow.

The other two lines of notebook cases seem pretty standard and by standard I mean boring. There is a typical mix of leather and canvas business looking bags. However, the Phobos netbook case which apparently is a "throw back to acid-washed jeans" seems interesting though I haven't seen a picture.

Those two are probably the most interesting since the rest are all business all the time. Those interested can hit the link for the full release. In the meantime, I'll be remembering how good those college class naps were. [Targus]

The Bluetooth presenter is apparently the first Mac-specific one you can buy, and is compatible with both Keynote and PowerPoint. It's also got a laser pointer, mouse-control mode and two programmable buttons in addition to its slide control/volume control buttons.
