Accessories for silver M11x

Hi!
I will be buying soon Alienware M11x and I would like to decide which what accessories I should buy for M11x
1. Mice - I need something mid-sized, can be wireless or with cord (best would be both - like Orochi), it should visually fit M11x, and work long on battery. I'm not type of fanatic player, I play once in a while but I would like to have mice that have something inside her, something like soul (you know what I mean - like M11x, I think that I can say that M11x has soul)
I thought about - Razer Orochi (+ Kabuto pad), Microsoft Sidewinder, Logitech Anywhere MX, Logitech G500. I can't buy TactX (not available in my country).
I would like to know what you think about - maybe there is something even better? (Now I think I'm decided to choose Orochi).
2. Sleeve for notebook -I can't buy Alienware Orion (not available in my country). I would like something that will last for long, will protect my notebook well and I would like it to look good. It can be very expensive but I would to have sleeve with nice and interesting design. It should have something I would refer to as "soul" like mice. It shouldn't only protect but also please my eye.
3. External Optical Drive - in this case I would simplest DVD-RW drive (with or without LightScribe), it should be as cheap as possible, and it would be best if it isn't glossy and won't catch fingerprints, it should be small and mobile.
4. I have question regarding matte foil - There is interesting type available in my country - Vikuiti ARMR200. It is very good product (as reviews say) but I would like to cover not only the screen of notebook but also the glossy elements outside it - I mean frame. What I should choose in this case one for 12,1 inch screen or 13,1 inch screen(there is no 11,6 option)?

I can't buy Alienware accessories, but I think that products of major companies would be available in my country. I hope to hear many replies - I would like to choose best accessories.

For a mouse, I definitely recommend the Orochi. Although if you're getting a mouse pad, I recommend the Vespula rather than the Kabuto. The Vespula is made of hard plastic, and can hold its own shape so you have a solid surface to mouse on no matter where you go. I've been using the Orochi + Vespula combo for a few months now, and it works great.

 

1. Mouse
Razer Spectre


2. Sleeve
Zeroshock III Notebook sleeve (size 31-23 or 34-27 read sizing info on the site)

 

Yes I thought that Orochi would be very good.
About Vespula - I won't take it - I prefer Kabuto (I will travel with this notebook for another year, about 1,5 hour a day, so every small bit of space Is welcome - because of that I would like to put Kabuto between screen and keyboard and forget about it).
About Spectre - It cerainly has soul but it just don't appeal to me - Orochi vs Spectre in my opinion is certainly for Orochi. Besides I checked - Spectre is a bit unavailable. And last but not least - It starcraft oriented and won't for example fit many wallpapers ;p
About ZeroShock - If those informations are true and this is as tough sleeve as they say it would be superb for me. Maybe it don't have appealing design but in case of protection it would be best! But... Maybe there are there any options to connect design with maximum protection?

 

God, that Spectre looks like the least comfortable thing I've ever seen. And the whole Starcraft II obsession is really getting old.

 

no it's not stracraft 2 is amazing. HOLD YOUR TONGUE!

but yea that mouse has no ergonomic features. Might be good while your playing sc2 but thats it.

 

I'm looking forward to SC2 myself, but I'm getting a little tired of Razer wasting new product development on this new SC2 exclusive branded series.

 

Any other ideas?

 

my m11x should be at my door by 07.12.10. just order the orochi + kobuto pad today along with the alienware sleeve. still looking for a messenger bag for it.
