Looking for one of those foamy cases for my Ultima Mobile (M860TU), does anybody know of any that fit it well?

I will be putting it in a rucksack, so I would like it to have as much padding as possible.

Budget £10-£30
 
ive just been out and bought one earlier. i bought a 17" sleeve first thinking a 15.4 one would be too small because of the laptop being a bit thinker than average.. the sleeve ended up being way too baggy, so went back with the laptop, and tried it in a 15.4 one and it was fine. The neoprene is vey stretchy. The make of the laptop sleeve is Swordfish. They are available in Black/Grey, Black/Red and Black/Blue. They may not be fanciest of designs, but it does the job :-)

Thanks for the info Davey D, I willl be looking into one.

@NoodleKing: Let us know how you get on! :)

Hi again, had a look at the Swordfish cases, they look great

One question though... How tight is it around the laptop?

Edit: Had a look at the Wenger Swisgear Hudson laptop rucksack, at a great price too.

Has anybody got one of these, and could they please tell me how much space there is for the laptop?

Thanks in advance

I'm still waiting for my slipcase and bag lol.
Shadows: I've ordered the Wenger swissgear Hudson already so i'll let you know about the size of it, hoping that will arrive soon as well.

Funny you should mention that NoodleKing, I have just ordered myself one too :p

Apparently the bag has PLENTY of room (all the reviewers spoke of it's sheer size and amount of pockets), so it seems perfect for cutting out the slipcase idea, and moving straight to a padded rucksack.
 
Hey Shadows, I read the same reviews as well, received the bag today and tested it for size.....it JUST fits into the laptop compartment.
I don't think the laptop and a sleeve would fit in there though, but not sure yet as I don't have my sleeve,I just wanted that for added protection.
The bag is fantastic though, it's very well padded and looks pretty well made, i'm sure it will last a good few years.
If you've got any questions ask away :)

Hey NoodleKing, just received the word that mine's been shipped, should be here before the weekend. :D

One quick question: Is there a compartment for the charger, so that it doesn't bang against the lid? I ask this because my previous bag wouldn't have any padding between the laptop compartment and the accessories compartment.
