New TiBook Handle Also Sports a Stand
gsfprez writes "The fine folks at Other World Computing have teamed up with Newer Technology to release the perfect handle for your TiBook, because its also a stand: it folds underneath like the CRT iMac stand when you're parked. Previous handles were only handles, but the TiHandle actually gives you the tilt you wish you had with you all the time without the little feet popping off or overrotating."
The model in this picture also has some nice handles.

To mold a new reality... closer to the heart
What kind of handle does your TiBook have?
- Stock (none)
- the one attached to the carrying case
- a sexy new TiHandle!
- I don't have a TiBook you insensitive clod!
- CowboyNeal handles it for me
It's for the IBM Thinkpads and it plugs into the USB port. But there's a small problem. It doesn't work so well when you pick it up. I think the computer is too heavy or something.
This is America, damnit. Speak Spanish!
Photographer (to model): Can you raise the laptop about 6"?
Model: Like this?
Photographer: Yes, Perfect!
Client: Why do you want the laptop held in such an unnatural position? She looks uncomfortable. Nobody carries a laptop like that.
Photographer: If you want to sell these damn things, we need her tits in the frame too.

that's a great idea! brilliant! beats the hell out of having bright orange bibles sticking out of the sides of my tibook..... although it is nice to have the presence of god so close to my laptop and protecting it from viruses and what-have-you.
anyone else have any brilliant ideas of how to keep your tibook well ventilated? when watching divx movies & playing quake 3 i have a large 12" "shop" fan blowing across my keyboard/rear of computer to keep it from going into "high fan mode".
does anyone know of a way to wire up some case fans to a USB/firewire port as a power supply? i'd like to not have to tear apart a usb laptop light to figure it out/kill my laptop.
moox. for a new generation.
[Mimes placing laptop computer over his head] You just lift the TiBook by the handle up over your head. Keeps you nice and dry!
