(NUI) - Every once in a while, someone comes up with a solution to a problem that is so simple, yet affects so many. Its simplicity defies logic and makes you wonder why you didn't think of it.

Consider the business case, for example. Most business cases come either with or without wheels. But now, McKlein USA, a company that specializes in business cases and computer cases for mobile professionals, has patented an innovation: a removable wheel and handle system found on its "R Series" of bags.

Before the advent of the "R Series," professionals had to choose between a wheeled or carried case. This posed a dilemma because both have their benefits but neither is ideal for every situation.

When you're hauling a heavy load or commuting long distances, wheeled bags can be invaluable. But if you have to lift the bag, then the wheels and handle just make the bag heavier. Wheels can make congested areas difficult to maneuver. In bad weather conditions, wheeled cases often get rolled through puddles or snow. And because some trade shows now restrict wheeled bags, many find their cases have to be checked at the door.

The detachable wheel and handle system, incorporated on every case in McKlein's "R Series," is a breakthrough solution. The cases are wheeled, but the wheel and handle are integrated into a shell that can be unzipped from the bag, giving you the option of either carrying it as a

hand-held or shoulder bag. When unzipped, the shell can be left behind in the hotel room, office or at home awaiting the next use when rolling is required. The series also contains backpacks with the removable wheel and handle system.

The bags come with spacious storage room and well-appointed organizers to keep digital devices, pens, papers and other items at your fingertips. With an ABS honeycomb frame and high density foam to absorb shock, your laptop and digital devices receive extra protection. All "R Series" bags come with savvy rain and snow covers. The backpacks also have wheel covers to protect clothing from wheels when used with the wheels attached.

The bags are available in full grain napa calfskin leather or ballistic nylon and can be purchased at various retailers. They generally range from $100 to $200.
