    Is there any "more travel friendly" power brick for the NP597X? It would be nice to find something that wraps up a bit nicer. I need to buy an extra anyways, so thought I would check first. I have become fond of the one on my Dell Latitude 620 where everything wraps up.

    I really like the Kensington power supply model number 33197 ( http://us.kensington.com/html/13874.html). It runs on wall, car, and plane power. Works great with my M570RU with tip N3 (it supplies up to 120W).

    It's flexible, small, has lots of tip options and doesn't get terribly hot. It lists for $150, but it's generally possible to get a refurbished model online for the $20-$30 range (I've bought 5 or 6 of them now).
