Belkin Unveils New Laptop Bags

TMO at CES - Belkin Unveils New Laptop Bags

by , 10:25 AM EST, January 7th, 2008

LAS VEGAS -- Belkin announced three new laptop bags at CES on Monday. The Ceylon Messenger, Backpack, and Laptop Hideaway all fit laptops with displays up to 15.4-inches and include storage space for accessories.

The Ceylon Messenger includes a hidden handle, plush-lined laptop pocket, and a built-in stabilizer so the bag stands upright on its own. It will be available at the end of January in black/light grey, grey/lavender, grey/green, or grey/blue for US$49.99.

The Backpack sports breathable shoulder straps with extra padding, lined laptop compartment, separate pouch for cables and power adapter, and a shoulder strap cell phone pocket. It is available now for $59.99 in dark gray/green, dark gray/light blue, dark gray/lavender, black/light gray, or jet/cabernet.

The Laptop Hideaway is designed primarily for home use and includes pockets for a laptop, cables and power cord, and magazines. It will be available in late January in chocolate/tourmaline or khaki/tarragon for $49.99.

I wish someone would make a 15.4" laptop bag that also has room for a water bottle.

You could get a regular messenger bag (e.g., Crumpler) or other bag and use a sleeve for the laptop.
