A great bag for the 700m

post #1 of 8
Thread Starter 
It's been a little while that I was looking around to get a nice bag for my 700m. The sleeves are nice but generally too small to put an adapter, a mouse and documents. Regular carrying cases are too "classic", and kind of heavy. I found a really cool store on the web: www.booqbags.com that sells all types of notebook bags of any size. I think the 12" bags are designed for the Ibook byt my 700m fits perfectly.
The bag is really well made and feels very sturdy. It's made of ballistic nylon that they claim "indestructible"
The lappy compartment is well padded. I wouldn't try to drop it but it is at least as protective as a regular carrying case. There are plenty of pockets (either regular or meshed) to put the adapter, mouse, cds, keys... And last but not least, the bag is shipped with two straps to let you carry it across your chest, on your shoulder, or as a bagpack. Attached are some pictures from the website.

Any comment is welcome!

Do you have the extended (8-cell) battery or the regular 4-cell battery?

The regular 4-cell battery. But the notebook compartment could easily fit the 8-cell battery.

more booqbag pictures

I took a few pictures of the bag to show how the 700m fits in it. Note that when using the standard 4-cell battery, the laptop is still 1.5 inches away from the side wall of the bag, which should be enough to fit the laptop with the 8-cell battery.

Hi Drsky, i am planning on buying a 700m and was loking for a cool bag to fit in.
The pics you posted are from the Mamba XS 12" or the 14" ?
If it is the 12" does it fits the AC adapter and a 1.44 drive, plus mouse, and have some extra space?

The bag is the Mamba XS 12". I have enough space in it to put a wireless mouse, the ac adapter, a graphic calculator, a wallet, earphones, a wireless remote, the screen cleaning kit, and some papers.
Note that I have the 4-cell battery. But the 8-cell would fit just as well.
