    So I ordered a T400 two days ago and I was thinking of what kind of screen protector, case protector, sleeve case, etc. I should get...

    In fact, I have just ordered an "exim" screen protector from eBay (so costly...) and am planning to order a Build NY sleeve (so costly too...) (Is anyone using this? Should I buy a 13-15" one? Or a wide one?). But I can't find any case protector that covers the inner body as well...

    Feel free to post it up if you have any good experience with anything.
    And feel free to let me know if there is anything should be done (e.g. backup recovery) before doing anything to the laptop.

    I'm also curious. To all the T400/500 owners; Are there any accessories that happen to work particularly well with T400/500s? Any advice a new T400/500 owner would find useful? Thanks all :)

    Fabulous thread topic. I also have a new T400 and would love to hear about what accessories people have used with it -- good, bad, and ugly.

    Accessories for a new T400 would make great Christmas presents. Does anyone have any suggestions?

    There's a guy on ebay that sells zeroshock III sleeves for the T400. I have one at it fits "like a gloooove."

    Essential Replicator Port is a must for me!
    a nice docking, I can link my LCD, other USB devices, second portable HDD, a external 5.1 soundcard and headphones, speakers :)

    i also recommend the zeroshock III. I have it for my t400 w/6 cell and I am pretty confident in it protecting my laptop if it ever falls out of my messenger bag or something. like jedisolo said I also got the ultra bay adapter and put another ssd drive in there

    Screen protector is also a must.

    I actually use Iclear for mine (but thats mostly because I have about 10 bottles of it). It works great.
