When you follow the links for their e740 case, that's the page that
comes up.

They list the measurements of the case and they are very close to the E740.
When I was on their site last night (man is it slow) I could not find an
email address to contact them and ask if the unit will in fact fit the E740.

Hey thanks for the suggestion. Too bad it's for an earlier model Toshiba
put out. I guess we'll just have to wait till the model is discontinued
before someone comes out with a decent hard case. :-(

As the site says, They are taking orders for the e740 case right now.
They will send a neoprene case for you to use while waiting. You get
to keep that one even when your metal case arrives.

The way I read it, the case that is coming out is for the Genio
e550G/e550GX/e550GS: "Protect your Toshiba GENIO in style with the
lightest case available."

I could be misinterpreting things, but the fact that the page doesn't
mention the e740/e330 and you can't order the Genio version currently
leads me to believe that it's the Genio version that's in production,
not an e740 version.

Of course, I reserve the right to be (happily) wrong about this!
