Need help finding a sleeve for a 15" T42p

[AntAu]

Hi, I just got my 15" T42p last week and I need some help finding a tight-fitting sleeve so that I can carry the laptop with me in my backpack. I searched through the forum and found several suggestions for 14.1" ThinkPads but none for 15" models. Thanks in advance for the help!

www.spireusa.com has plenty of stuff.

their sleeve is called "boot." the large size will suffice, though i'd encourage you to buy an extra large and put extra padding in there. that's what i did and i'm quite happy with it. alone, without extra padding, it seemed too thin to me, though you might feel different.

I have a 15 T42p and just posted this in another thread:

For anyone like me who has a T42p with the 9 cel battery and who carries his ThinkPad in a protective sleeve inside of a pack or briefcase, I just bought a great sleeve from WaterField Design http://www.sfbags.com/. This sleeve has a 3/16 neoprene liner and heavy duty ballistic nylon outer cover. Interestingly the sleeve that fits the T42p with the extended battery is one they make for a Toshiba - Toshiba model #8. Cost was $40, plus I opted for their optional flap/additional $15.
