    I found this case through the forum here, but had to hunt for it.
    Perhaps this will help someone else in my situation.
    I bought the m1330 because it's so small and portable.
    When looking for a case that could carry the laptop, ac adapter, mouse, etc., most cases were made for the 15.4 screens which left me with a lot of bulk to carry.
    I went to www.sfbags.com and ordered one of their custom sleeves with a flap and piggyback. I bought the 6 cell size and the fit is PERFECT with the 4 cell battery and also works with the 9 cell as well. The piggyback allows me to have my accessories with me if I want, or easily detaches if I don't need them. The flap seals everything up very nice as well.
    Design, fit, and quality are TOP NOTCH.
    And, Gary is right there emailing you the next day if you need anything.
    If you're looking to keep the bulk down with your m1330, I think you will LOVE this!

    Wow, their stuff looks really nice! Did you select the size they recommend ("25-20") for the 1330 in their table?

    We will have to add it to the list of elligable sleeves :)

    I did order off their chart and it's a perfect fit.
    If I want to take both batteries, I can even put it in the case with the 9 cell and then put the 6 cell in the piggyback with the charger and things.
    Being able to detach the piggyback is really nice.
    This is a first class case and the company gives you fast personal service!

    This is awesome. I have been searching for a bag too. I hated how all the bags that I found are so bulky that it defeats the purpose of having a small laptop that is easy to transport. Thanks!!!

    Yup,

    SFBags are great. I have one too for my MacBook Pro and it has been taking my very abusive and frequent travel lifestyle for almost 2 years now.

    Another recommendation and I would get one for my XPS 1330 too if i ever get around to picking out the options I want.
