    I just bought a 700m and joined your group. I want to thank all of you for the tips and info contained in your messages. Sooo, how about some guidance on a sleeve. I've looked at many and I'm interested in knowing how the Waterfield sleve with piggyback bag and flap works out. It seems to offer a reasonable alternative for some protection and some equipment on a day or trip when you do not need to lug everything. Thoughts? Any help will be appreciated.[ :D]

    It looks like a decent sleeve. Any idea how much it weighs (probably nothing at all)? Personally I carry quite a bit of stuff so a sleeve doesn't do it for me, even with that piggyback thing. That and it seems kind odd that you have to pay extra to add the flap to a standard model.

    Personally, I wouldn't pay that much for a sleeve alone. I'd spend it on a light laptop/messenger bag with more compartments.

    I'm considering the Vyper M. Has anyone any experience with it. Is it actually too big? I'm looking for something that will stay on as I use the laptop. (Everytime I've dropped a laptop it has been while I'm using it)
