It looks like the "iPhone Black" listed on AT&T's site might be, or might not be the official name for the 3G iPhone. Carphone Warehouse is currently listing accessories for the "iPhone Black". Stay tuned.

  Sena UltraSlim iPhone Pouch

I came across the Sena UltraSlim iPhone Pouch . This has got to be the slimmest iPhone case I've seen. Sena offers the case in 11 different colors and sells for $29.99.

UltraSlim Pouch: The UltraSlim Pouch is a novel approach for those who dislike the extra bulk some protective cases create. The UltraSlim is the leanest case ever designed for any mobile device. The slim curve hugging leather and micro suede lining is as close to naked as the iPhone can get. The UltraSlim Pouch is perfect for men carrying the iPhone in a pant or jacket pocket.

● Ultra Slim Design

● Finest European Napa leather

● Velvet Lining

● Speaker opening

  MacBook Air and MacBook Air SuperDrive

Apple came up with a clever way of adding ports to their ultra-thin MacBook Air, it's called the Port hatch. As you can see from the pictures the Port hatch flips down for access to a headphone jack, a USB 2.0 port, and a Micro-DVI port.

Once connected to the MacBook Air the MacBook Air SuperDrive works just like all of Apple's slot loading drives.

I figured I'd use a DVD most geeks (especially Mac Heads) would be familiar with;)

The above picture just blows me away, how did Apple make a full featured laptop so thin?? The MacBook Air SuperDrive is thin on its own, but compared to the MacBook Air it's almost twice as thick. Gotta love the people in Cupertino for always pushing the limits.

  MacBook Air SuperDrive

The MacBook Air SuperDrive is a "must-have" if you plan on watching DVDs on your MacBook Air. The MacBook Air SuperDrive will also allow you to burn CDs and DVDs, including double-layer DVDs. The great thing about the MacBook Air SuperDrive is that it connects to the MacBook Air via a single USB cable, no need to carry a seperate power adapter with you.It's also made out of the same anodized aluminum that the MacBook Air is encased in. It's available from Apple for $99.

Technical Details:

Slot-loading 8x SuperDrive (DVD±R DL/DVD±RW/CD-RW)

  MacBook Air expected in Apple Retail Stores Wednesday

I'm really tempted by the MacBook Air. I called my local Apple Store Monday evening and was told that they expect to have MacBook Airs in stock Wednesday. My last Apple portable (not counting my iPhone) was a 12" PowerBook. I'm about due for one;)

Check out this case, it's called AirMall . It retails for $29.95.

What is this made of?

The AirMail laptop sleeve is handmade out of durable upholstery-grade vinyl, and lined with fuzzy, soft fleece. All AirMail sleeves have the same dimensions as standard interoffice manila envelopes, which will serve to remind you -- and everyone around you -- that your new MacBook Air really is the thinnest laptop in the world!

Why?

Well, we think Apple's MacBook Air is a revolutionary computer, and we thought we'd take Steve Jobs up on his idea that it can fit inside a standard manila envelope. Besides, we wanted a cool case to show off our new laptops!

Is this padded enough to protect my laptop?

AirMail laptop cases are lined with thick fleece, which will protect your laptop from any cosmetic damage and smudges, and keep it safe from bumps in daily use. It is not suitable, however, for any extreme use. But geez, treat your MacBook Air kindly! Who made this?

The AirMail is the brainchild of Jona Bechtolt and Claire L. Evans, two Apple geeks with combined handicraft-and-idea-person superpowers! Find out more information on AirMail here . What a cool case!!

Just in case you're wondering why a manila envelope looking case, check out the official MacBookAir ad
