    I just found out through the @speckproducts twitter page that the retina cases won't arrive until Mid-to-late August. Any recommendations for cases right now? I guess I'll just have to use my laptop very cautiously until August arrives...

    Well I usually don't buy body cases for laptops, but rather sleeves that I can slide it in and out of easily. I haven't seen any actual cases though. They'll be out soon enough though.

    I often hear that those hard, plastic cases scratch the laptop's body a lot. As samw40 said, sleeves are the way to go. I only use them when I'm leaving the house though.

    I wouldnt get a case or a sleeve. Keep it nude. It wont scratch and looks and feels a lot better

    Well I've had my 2011 MBP since day 1, and had the speck case on it. No scratches what-so-ever. I've seen a lot of scratched MBP's at my University.

    Buy a sleeve from Incase for now, and when speck releases a case go for it.
