Wet ‘n dry : two new MacBook bags

MobileJuice have announced two new bags for MacBook, the MobileJazz, a versatile, multi-configurable shoulder/backpack bag, and the Wet Suit Deck Bag, which pretty much tells you what you need to know.

But, just in case, "the Wetsuit Deck Bag has waterproof RF-welded seams and a low-profile shape to protect against water & waves. Convenient laptop sleeves zip access is guarded by our splash-proof R-ZIP and the main unit with roll down closure..."

Be sure to check out the video of the guy in the wetsuit swimming around with his laptop (some kind of tablet, not a MacBook, BTW) in a WSDB. Seems to work!
