    I snagged up the new i7 model first time buyer was wondering what are the available accessories out there? If anyone has some links id appreciate it.
    I did also purchase the Orion portfolio case & was thinking of buying some laptop armor/screen protector any suggestions?

    I ordered a anti-glare privacy film on the bay. Apparently they do not have 11.6" but fortunately they can cut one to spec.

    Tried to took for a protective skin over the top as it is a fingerprint magnet. Could not find any.. had to use a DIY solution

    I bought the anti-glare screen protector from Dell's site. Haven't received my m11x yet though so no impressions. I also went with the neoprene Alienware sleeve. I like the idea of the sleeve over the portfolio design.

    Fingerprints... I don't know what you are all about :D *looks at his Lunar Shadow* :p

    I just use an external mouse for use when I'm in the office (my old Logitech G7) and Razer Kabuto mousepad, since I got it cheap. And the backpack... since I'm riding on a bicycle every day.
