    Go to ebay and search for T60 sleeve. You will find some original IBM one, black outside, red inside, IBM logo on it :)

    And no, it's harder to find a 14" widesreen sleeve ;)

    I am in the same situation, I have one of these "ebay IBM THINKPAD SLEEVES) for my t60p widescreen and they are a great deal, but the design is uninspiring (i.e. a neoprene flap holder that you stuff the top flap under to hold it closed). It looks kind of unkempt, I purchased a 17" Macbook Archetype for my 14.1 and I am hoping that it will work as it will be handy to be able to carry the sleeve by itself as a bag or put it in my "big bag" when I need to carry accessories etc.

    have you guys checked the waterfield sleeve?

    it's pricey but very nice looking.
