I just purchased this backpack for my i8600. I got it in the charcoal/black color scheme.

I will be taking it on vacation with me on Thursday.

Looks good. I'm thinking of returning my Targus although it has a LOT of pockets to hold my accessories

I plopped down 160 for a Spire Volt XL that I think really looks nice. It looks more like a North Face backpack that an anyday student carrying a few books would use. You could never mistake it for a laptop backpack in any way.

Yeah, its the same one. I could have gotten the AW one for the same price, but it would have just made it a target. I like this bag because it just looks like a normal backpack.

Is there anyway I can use a regular backpack to carry my notebook? Do they sell any kind of padding enclosure I can put the notebook in firt before it goes into the backpack?

You could just buy a sleeve for the laptop, which is what I did. Try the Case Logic NCLE2 if you have the i8600. It fits like a glove. Yi Chen and I both have it, and here are his pictures of it in action.

However, I figured that I should at least have a backpack with a padded pocket for my laptop, seeing as how it is a $2000 investment.

This is getting amusing now. ABSOLUTELY NOT, I will NOT fulfill your sick sexual fantasies of me wearing a backpack for you. NEVER EVER.

Has anyone tried out either of these backpacks:

Lowe Pro TX1300
Wenger Swiss Gear SWA0451

These are a bit less pricey than the other models mentioned above. I'm curious about the space for accessories in each, and would appreciate any comments.

Thanks,
Brian
