Protector Sleeve for 14.1 T42

#1 Post by pdudas » Tue Mar 01, 2005 9:24 am

Hi!

I want to buy a sleeve for my 14.1 T42.
I used a Shinza sleeve before, but i think it is too large.
15".....
http://shinza.com/product_info.php?products_id=46

I think the shinza's interior space is too large for my thinkpad.

Do you know any good protector sleeve (poliurethane inlet) for a 14.1" T42? It is important to ship to Europe/Hungary!

Thanks,

dfumento

I use this sleeve for my 14" T42 Thinkpad. Works fine for me. I want the best protection I can get.

If you can afford it, buy a brenthaven bag. They come with detachable sleeves that are very tough and fit the 14.1 inch like a glove. Im gonna get the 'commuter' backpack soon, but there are also shoulder bags available. The comuter is $149, check out www.brenthaven.com

all the best,

James.

Thaks for the replies guys!

Brenthaven seems to make the best notebook bags.

If you are interest in a simple, inexpensive sleeve to protect it from scratches and to use in a briefcase, try the Vasola B5L sleeve for only $11.99 from Semsons. I use one and it fits great and is a lean, clean, sleeve machine!

The best is the B5L, the one for which I had the link. By the way, Semsons service is great, too.

I'm not sure how far the 9v sticks out from the back. But there is a little bit of space in the case for depth, plus the material does stretch a little if necessary.

We don't "need" to. I encourage it, because it enhances the feeling of "community", and is often useful when a question or comments response is relevant to a particular part of the world (we have members from many countries!).

P.S. I wonder how many have deciphered where your location is. I won't tell ;-).

Oh come on...how could someone not know that. I expect most of us have heard about their silly ad campaign and all in their bid for the <hidden by me> in 2012. And besides that, I suspect there are quite a few people who wouldn't want to call that their home. It is pretty arrogant for anyone to think they are the world's second home.
