Waterfield Has HP Up Its Sleeves

When Hewlett-Packard unveiled its mammoth Dragon notebook computer with a 20.1-inch screen last week, you may have been thinking to yourself “Hey, even if I had the arm and shoulder strength to take that with me wherever I go—I have nothing to carry it in!”

Now, Waterfield Designs can solve at least half that problem for you, announcing it has updated its SleeveCase line of neoprene-and-nylon notebook cases to accommodate not just HP’s Dragon notebook, but 12 other HP notebook models as well.

“The first step to protecting your laptop is to have the correct-fitting case to cushion it while in transport,” said Waterfield Designs’ founder Gary Waterfield, in a statement. “Our SleeveCases hug your computer and the neoprene inner shell provides shock-absorbing qualities. People eager to purchase HP’s new laptops can protect their new investment safely and stylishly with one of our new SleeveCases.”

The SleeveCases feature a ballistic nylon shell with a neoprene interior customized for a snug fit with particular computer models—check out the custom sizing chart for your notebook model. Users can choose to add a front flap for additional protection, or a strap for carrying the SleeveCase as a bag unto itself, rather than tucked as a sleeve into another bag or tote. SleeveCase users can also add a PiggyBack pouch for accessories like power adapters, mice, and cables.

The basic SleeveCases are priced from $39 to $41, with a front flap adding $15, a shoulder strap adding $18, and the PiggyBack pouch going for $22. Cases for the new HP notebooks will be available in June.
