Sleeve for W510
Posted: Tue Mar 30, 2010 9:47 pm
It looks like my replacement W510 has finally shipped out. I'm thinking of getting a nice protective sleeve for it, preferably something a little more substantial than just some thin neoprene. Anyone have any recommendations? I've done some searching, and Targus seems to have one that fits the bill, known variously as the TSS127US, TSS108US, and TSS127CA, which are all identical from what I can tell:

http://www.targus.com/us/product_detail ... u=TSS108US
And for us Canadians:
http://www.targus.ca/ca/product_details ... u=TSS127CA
From the specs, it sounds like it'll fit the W510/T510. Interior dimensions are 14.75" x 10.25" x 1.53", and the tabook says the W510 is 14.68" x 9.65" x 1.29-1.44" for the non-multitouch FHD. My only concern is the 9-cell battery sticking out the back. I'm guessing it sticks out about 0.75", which should still allow it to fit, although tightly. Could someone be gracious enough to double-check the dimensions of their W510, including the 9 cell battery?

The 9 cell battery sticks out 7/8", and the total depth is 10.5" with the battery. I've ordered the Targus TSS127CA sleeve (from ncix.com), hopefully it'll fit. I'll report back here once I get the sleeve.
