    I found out I can get a Timbuk2 sleeve for 25 shipped.

    It looks as nice as the waterfield sleeve and comes with a free flap.

    anyone has experience with it?

    what size do you have for the 14" thinkpad, non-widescreen?

    Thanks.

    will a 'small' size fit the 14" non-widescreen?

    yes, but the medium is much bigger than the T61 and the small is a bit smaller...

    non-wide screen

    Hey, funny you should ask. I have one myself! It needs a medium sleeve. I tried the small and couldn't squeeze it in. The medium, you will have a little room but that's ok. It won't move around and you have a little room to put your charger in

    So you ordered both an infocase and a Timbuk2 case? No ZeroShock III?

    Am I the only one who sees the Timbuk2 web site for the sleeve and wonders why they mention nothing about the padding?

    Ecka, by room to put the charger you mean room to put it next to the laptop on its side so its fully inside the sleeve?

    Hey, Enki

    I ordered an infocase. The timbuk2 was out of stock on academicsuperstore.com

    After I get my T61 later today, I'll check the local store, which carries timbuk2.
