Orbino, exclusive hard-leather case for MacBook Air

Exclusive is what come in mind whenever people see Apple's thinnest laptop: MacBook Air (MBA), aside from its hefty price; the MBA also only sports minimum specifications for modern laptop. Thus making it one of the elusive product in the market today.

So to protect your fragile thin MBA, you're now can choose from various of protecting cases & bags. From not so expensive one to most exclusive, like these cases from
Orbino. The "Aria" case line-up seeks to complement its beauty with brawn, made from both premium leather and "sculpted anodized aluminum frame."

It's got a spring-loaded latching mechanism, removable leather shoulder strap, and a padded "alcantara" exterior. It keeps its Air-matching shape by having all your accessories (read: power brick) in a removable external pocket, which is a little clunky but not too bad. It's made entirely by hand, machined from a single block of aluminum, and it's in premium hand-stretched leather (with exotic skins available on special order.)

It's not the Aria case itself that's so excluvie, to bring one home you must pay a premium price too. Starting at $529 each! Sources are from
