    Do they expect me to place the notebook inside the *center* zippered compartment? Has anyone been able to do this successfully? It does not fit there! The back compartment does not seem sufficiently padded. Looks like they produced one case as a universal notebook case, not taking into consideration the length of the W3V widescreen :(

    Peace!

    Justin,

    And you are really able to fit the W3V in there without getting it scratched up on the zipper pull? Actually, forget the scratching, I physically cannot get it to fit. How do yo do it?

    Peace!

    D,

    No, thats a case for a 14" widescreen. That center section is meant to be a tight fit, but that's where it's supposed to go. All padded and secure...... it's in the center so it's away from the corners which could get bumped.

    Thanks,
    Justin

    Hang on a second... I take that back, I was using an aluminum briefcase with mine for a while. I picked up the bag and.. no it can't fit in the middle compartment.... the back is what is padded, along with the one side of the zipped section.... that's where it's supposed to go. I was just a little confused... but man, that zipped compartment is like two inches too small when you open it to the thickness of the notebook.......... but no, I mean that notebook fits perfectly in that bag.. it's the right width and height for that 14" widescreen..

    Thanks,
    Justin

    I just took a closer look and you are right, that is where the padding is. Whew, I thought I was going crazy. I'll have a review next week. My verdict after one night: Impressed.

    Peace!
