I had ordered a CaseMate sleeve for the 13" Macbook/Air and as it turns out, the X300 fits in this sleeve like a glove. For $9.99 and $3.00 for ground shipping, you can't go wrong for $13 bucks.

It is a soft mesh type sleeve that has a velcro flap that easily encases the X300 and provides decent protection for someone that needs a simple case and maintain a slim profile.

I'm not sure why its so cheap, but it could be that they are clearing them out.

And no, I'm not affiliated with CaseMate They make some great cases for phones and laptops at reasonable prices.

a $13 case for a $3000 notebook just doesn't sound right...

Ok, think of it for what it is, a sleeve, or only part of the shirt

Works for me!

i was just poking fun because of the polar opposite prices.   function doesn't always cost a ton, that's for sure.

I bought the incase sleeve from my local computer store:

it's padded and still looks good enough to carry around. MSRP is $34.95, so it's a bit more than a sleeve

I found a really nice leather case that sells for $44.95 plus shipping from Procases. They are selling on Ebay (website is closed?) now and supposedly the case is custom made and looks like a real fit and trim case for the X300.

Brenhtaven makes a sleeve for the Macbook Air and I guess it'd fit the X300 too. I am so sold on Brenthaven after I started using the triload I picked up 2 weeks back, it is really nice.

I really like my messenger / laptop bag from Tumi. It's popular in New York, especially with yuppies. They are also on the expensive side. I like the look, the style, and durability. the padding is for a larger laptop, so it fits X300 fine.

Here's mine:
