| Zeroshock Laptop Sleeves
I've been wanting to pickup one of these for my Dell M101z. Anybody know of any places locally that sell them? Would prefer not to have to order off ebay, if possible.
Open to other laptop sleeve suggestion as well, if you have one.
Thanks

Yup.
Crystal mall has 12.1" and some bigger ones too.
However, they do not have 13.3"

12.1 inch is perfect. Will give it a shot. Do you happen to remember which store?

Are all neoprene laptop sleeves made equal in terms of protection/shock absorbency etc, assuming its a snug fit for the laptop?

Not necessarily the Zeroshock sleeves also have a layer of high density memory foam that gives it the most protection. When you get the right size zeroshock sleeve for your laptop its a very snug fit, the zipper pocket on the outside is virtually useless for anything more than maybe a usb cable, usb drive, and flash memory card or 2.

Zeroshock sleeves have the protection for the edges as well, the most likely part of the laptop to be hit on impact. Most neoprene sleeves do not. I have the 13.3" Zeroshock in orange.

The stores are by Pittsburg Restaurant. The area's called computer valley or something like that inside Crystal Mall.
And I believe they only had the III, but you can take a look.

For those curious I finally made it to the mall today.
There are 3 stores I found that carry Zeroshock but they all only have the 15 inch sleeves left. None of the other sizes are available, apparently the supplier is out of business.

From personal experience, my 13.3 inch Zeroshock sleeve did poorly protecting the edges of my old laptop. Almost all the edges were either cracking or literally cracked. 
It was probably an older model though since I was using it around... 3 or 4 years ago-ish?
