    Im looking for a sleeve to my thinkpad X41. I have found two which is quiet nice but im not sure if my X41 will fit, i have the big 8-cell battery on my also.

    Does someone of you guy have any of these or know any good sleeve for the X41?

    I'm sure sfbags.com can hook you up with the right size sleeve. You'll pay a bit of a premium for the quality and service, though.

    I have a brand new one just like the one in your first picture, though it's for 14" wide screen laptop. The sleeve measures 14" x 9.5". Plain black, no IBM logo. I got it by mistake. If interested let me know.

    i think it will not fit. i have a crumpler 13,3" widescreen bag and my x41 tablet is larger than that. i still put it in there and it's ok for me, because i carry the sleeve in a bag. but the flap doesn't close, because 12" 4:3 is still taller in height and the 8cell battery additionally protrudes like it was a 14".

    Sorry, it's for 14" wide screen, my mistake (corrected above).
    Here is a picture of the said sleeve placed side-by-side with a sleeve for x61 (I'm keeping the latter).

    I could only try it on my x200s (don't know how much difference from x41 in size), and it leaves extra room especially on two sides.
