    I'm thinking about getting a laptop sleeve for a Thinkpad X120e. Here are the criteria, in order of importance:
    • I'd like it to fit as well as possible. Dimensions of the X120e are: 11.1" x 8.2" x 1.2"
    • Under $40 (unfortunately, don't have a whole lot of money to blow on a sleeve)
    • I'd prefer a vertically-oriented sleeve
    • Either handles or a shoulder strap
      [*]Not too flashy, preferably available in black
    I've been looking at the Waterfield sleeves--they look great, but are far too expensive for me. I'm also considering the Thinkpad 11" Sleeve, but from what it seems, the dimensions are quite a bit too large for the X120e.

    EDIT: Best one I've found so far is this Case Logic sleeve, for the very reasonable price of ~$20.

    I'd appreciate any suggestions :)

    Followup: ended up buying the Case Logic sleeve mentioned in the OP for $17.50 shipped from eBay. Will post up some remarks when I receive it.
