Brain Cell gets brawnier

Tom Bihn has announced an upgrade to his highly-regarded Brain Cell laptop case/sleeve: an extra layer.

“FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

TOM BIHN Brain Cell Laptop Case Adds Memory Foam

SEATTLE, WA — November 7th, 2007

bc.jpgThe TOM BIHN Brain Cell laptop case has gained a reputation for offering
the best protection one can get for their laptop short of using a heavy
metal briefcase. The Brain Cell cradles laptops in 8mm thick soft foam
padding, suspends them in a 4mm hard corrugated plastic insert that
protects from the front, back, and bottom, and protects them at the
sides with dense cross-linked closed-cell polyethylene foam.

And now that protection is even better. All Brain Cells now have an new
fifth layer of protection: 12mm thick premium memory foam, manufactured
to our specifications in the U.S.A. The layer of memory foam is fixed to
the corrugated plastic floor of the Brain Cell, separating the bottom of
the foam sling from the corrugated plastic shell. The memory foam acts
as an extra layer of cushion as well as an effective shock absorber.”

The nifty Brain Cells clip in to many Tom Bihn bags and lots of travelers use the Brain Cell to tuck a laptop into an unpadded bag or carry-on luggage. The come highly recommended from a variety of users.
