It is a cover that came with an old PCMCIA slot card for an old IBM laptop. The hucard sleaves fit but this protects better
 
I've seen those PCMCIA Cases for sale online, at several websites, for around three bucks each.
I haven't purchased anything from the sites I saw selling them, before, so I have to leave that recommendation up to someone else.

I wonder if Stone Age Gamer is planning on bundling one of those cases with his tricked out version of the TED.  :-k
If his Deluxe Edition fits in those cases, it would be ideal.

Actually, now that I think about it, if his DE fits in those cases, I can go ahead and just use it.
I was planning on getting one of his DE's and encasing it somehow, so I could have it on display in my game room.

That's cool; there needs to be some extra thickness for the plexi-shield over the chips on the Deluxe Edition Turbo Everdrive, anyway. ;)

That looks like a pretty good deal on Ebay for a $2 case. He has a bunch of them and 100% feedback. I think it looks really nice in that case.

Ok so whats the word on when the everdrive is going to be for sale again?? How long is the wait? I might have enough $ in the next week or so and I really want one.

Good question. I'm wondering the same thing.

Ironically, I sold my Duo last year, as part of the fundraising effort to get the HuCard Sleeves made...  #-o
Even so, I can hardly wait until the Deluxe Edition gets released.
That thing is a work of art, and I'm going to display it as such.

Looking for Deluxe Edition? We currently do not know if a Deluxe Edition will be possible for this product. If we do make a Deluxe Edition we will offer a Deluxe Edition upgrade kit to customers who purchased their Turbo EverDrive from Stone Age Gamer. The price of the kit will be the difference in price from Board Only to Deluxe Edition.

Yep.
At least, I think it is.
I can see the Stone Age Gamer logo under the E in DRIVE.
That's why I've been so jazzed about it today.  :mrgreen:

I grabbed the photo off of another forum.
I think he has it on display at that retro gaming convention in Nevada?

If it's just a CG Mockup that never gets made, I'm going to be really disappointed.

Also waiting for Stone Age to get them in stock so I can get em.  I'll take the USA standard orange/yellow though.

I built a new quick case for mine:







I havn't decided what to do with the front of it yet which is why there's just electrical tape there for now.  This was built using the back plate from an official rectangular nes control pad.
