    So with my x61s arriving shortly, I though I'd check out people's thoughts on what the must have kit to go with it is.

    So far I definitely want:
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    Wireless mouse - Probably bluetooth, any ideas?
    Microfibre cloth for between keyboard + screen
    New HDD - Looking at probably WD scorpio blue or a 5k500.b
    Some kind of case - Ideally a sleeve or small case. The booq powersleeve looks perfect but I can't find it in the UK.

    Maybe want:
    ~~~~~~~~
    Something to go in the pc card slot - Perhaps a compact flash reader?
    Is it worth putting a SD in the built in reader or is it too slow?

    Anything else?
