Hoods for iBooks

Two sources:

-  CoolShield ($19.95)  http://www.coolshield.com/coolshield.html

This folds up nicely and includes a small LED light that sort of 
illuminates the keyboard, though it's a bit of a pain to get it just 
right. It is available for the 12" iBook.

The same company makes the ScreenSleeve, which I use all the time. It's a 
sleeve that fits over the top half of the iBook, covering the screen. You 
can close the iBook with the sleeve on to protect the screen from the 
keyboard. When the iBook is open, the sleeve keeps the screen from 
gathering dust.


-  Hoodman ($27.95)  http://www.hoodmanusa.com/powerbook.asp

They have a hood for the 12" PowerBook. It would probably fit the 12" 
iBook, as well. 

I haven't seen a hood for the 14" iBook yet. You might ask both of those 
companies.
