I performed a search and was surprised to see that this question doesn't appear to have been asked-- anyone care to recommend a sleeve for their T60p? looks like I'll be taking this machine on the road more often, and it'd be good to have a snug, protective case.

This question has indeed been discussed earlier on, but regardless of that, you'll find both 14" and 15" sleeves for 4:3 (non-widescreen) as well as for 14.1" or 15.6" widescreen T6x/p's on eBay... just search for ThinkPad sleeve 15" (or search for 14" or 14W or 15W, the latter two for widescreen models).

Beware that many of the cheapo sleeves bought off eBay has a pronounced "chemical smell" (of Neoprene, I believe) which will take some time to dissapear. Some sleeves are however reported not to have this strong smell - but how to know in advance whether or not "it smells" I don't know?

thanks for the response Johan; funny, as I searched "sleeve" in the T6x forum and there weren't any results, but no matter; I'll check out eBay... interesting about the "chemical smell"; perhaps I'll look for one that isn't too far on the cheapo end...
