    ok,

    i'm a bit anal when it comes to my "toys" and i'm wondering how all you mac people keep your white keyboards white?

    i've ordered the shield zone full body protector, but i really want something for my screen and keys.

    i know iskin offers something but it's not totally compatable. i'm wondering if i should just get the iskin for the macbook pro and hope it fits.


    thanks for the input!!

    I use alchol and a wet cloth for the keys and case.

    Uh, I don't think I'd use alcohol...

    Yeah I have ShieldZones protector, not full body, as I'm only concerned about what I'm seeing the most. My hands are dirty a lot (yeah I know, I'm a risktaker) and my keyboard still isn't showing any dirt from it. Pretty good. iKlear products work very well on Apples stuff, as well as Mr. Clean white pads.

    Heck than you can go underwater diving with that thing ;)

    Good to hear, I've been wondering about the keyboard protection thats coming out, supposely its reported to feel a bit weird on the macbook because of the spacing.

    yup same here. i'd really like to order the "blush" one. But I want it to really fit. Plus the screen sizes are different so I don't think it'd work. I called iskins, and the response they gave me was "sign up for our newsletter and that will tell you when it becomes available. We have no release date, but we are getting a lot of calls". so I hope that they have one soon.
