    So I got my Asus G1 last Monday, and all the internal components match the G1 specs, but the case has measurements that match the G1S... (13.9" x 11.2" x 1.5") It doesn't really matter, but the extra inch or so is really odd, and I'm having trouble finding a case. Bought it from BestBuy. Anyone have ANY idea why/how/huh?!

    I thought the G1 and G1s had the exact same case?

    I believe your specs on the G1 are incorrect. The G1p and G1s are the same dimensions; I've had them both side by side.

    Best case that I have found is a Incase Nylon Messenger Bag ($49.99) made for 17" Macbook Pro, one side has very soft material for the lid. The bag has a VERY snug fit however, the G1 just barely fits inside.
