T42/T43 Owners WITH Extended Cell Battery Weigh In

[rxl77]

What case/sleeves do you use?

I'm looking for a tough, rugged sleeve that will hold up to lots of travel for my T43 14.1" with extended cell battery. What will be the best sleeve? I've heard Biolithic, Waterfeld, Booq - I've checked the other long thread on sleeves/cases, but still no consensus.

I want something that will protect my notebook, and looks sleek to just carry by itself, but also form-fitting so it's not bulky so I can put in a backpack. Also the fit must be good/tight, and padding/shock absorption is critical.

Also, any recommendations on cases?
