    Hi all I'm new here. First up what a fantastic site this is so much info it’s amazing. So I am hoping someone can help with my question?

    I'm looking for a nice sleeve for the XPS M1210 I know there are loads out there but my XPS has the 9 cell extended battery which has proven to make things difficult when looking for a suitable sleeve etc.

    Has anyone found something suitable for this dilemma?

    Thanks in advance for your help! :D

    Also I'm based in the Uk so they would need to be able to ship there thanks.

    I also have the same notebook with 9 cell. I bought an Elecom 12 in slip case (zip up) from Pc World, though they dont often do them. By the same manufacturer under a different name is the Shinza ZeroShock III 12 inch laptop case. It has memory foam ( you press it and it stays pressed) so it absorbs shock if you drop your M1210. its the best type of foam ffor this and thin too. Its a snug fit and you can then put the laptop and case inside your backpack to avoid theives. You can get it here and ask to ship internationally :
    http://shinza.com/product_info.php?products_id=76&osCsid=ccfa492b58608866d7868d01942f1760 . Its not on eBay today, though I remember lots were on ebay before. It costs about £20 including shipping. Delivery from US ( as per Shinza website) is realistically 7 days.
    Good luck!

    you might want to consider the waterfield sleeve case. they can custom fit it for your notebook.

    The Samsonite L25 is an option.
