Luxury design brand Autum has created a line of sleekly minimalist leather “Straight Jackets” for the iPad and the new MacBook Air models. Limited in production (first run of only 50), these sleeves are made of dark black leather that has an unusual matte finish. Crafted right here in the States, each piece is unique and made from the best materials the company could find.

The Straight Jacket ($133) is constructed from the aforementioned domestically tanned leather in a semi-rigid, padded design with a suede interior. The Straight Jacket for iPad ships immediately, while Macbook Air pre-orders will ship November 26. Autum accepts orders directly through its website and offers complimentary shipping.

The M4 MacBook Pro is apparently listed for sale on Facebook — but I don’t buy it

According to analysts and industry experts like Mark Gurman and Ming-Chi Kuo, Apple is expected to announce an M4 refresh of the MacBook Pro possibly this month and most likely before the end of the year. No event announcements have come yet, though Apple has historically held an October Mac event. But now, an online leak discovered by Wccftech claims the new model is up for sale on a private Facebook group. The claim is backed up by alleged images of the retail box, but there's plenty to be suspicious about.

While the images were posted by known leaker ShrimpApplePro, the information was sent to them from an unknown source. There are two posts so far, one with an image of the back of the retail box -- with comments from AppleShrimpPro saying to take it with asome skepticism -- and one showing additional images and claiming it's for sale on Facebook.
