    Just curious what all of you new E1405/640m owners plan on using for a case/sleeve/etc for your new toy.

    After doing some digging on dell's site, I discovered the dimensions are:

    12.99 x 9.56 x 1.5

    Any brand/website/etc recommendations? I've been eyeballing www.timbuk2.com or www.crumplerbags.com but they seem kinda pricey.

    I've always preferred Brenthaven bags. www.brenthaven.com. A little pricey, but their protection is always rated the best. The Metro case is a nice case. It'll fit the E1405 as it fits my E1504 snugly.

    I used the shinza 15" sleeve and it was too thin for the 14.1" 630m / XPS M140, the seams along some of the edges are a bit stretched out... but it does the job well.
