Replace slippery dm1-1040 case with a soft touch surface case

I just purchased a dm1-4010us laptop last month only to find that its just announced replacement (dm1-4210) has a soft touch non-slippery case.  Can I replace the original plastic and slippery case with the newer one?  What is the part number, price, and availability of the new case?

 

Alternatively, is there some rubberized adhesive tape or skin cover that could be added to the current laptop to make it less likely to slip out of my hands?  I just don't want to drop this thing!

 

Thanks,

DED

Hi,
Do you mean a cover or a whole chassis replacement??
