I just got a 12" powerbook and I'm looking for a nice case/sleeve. So far, the nicest one I've found is this, it looks pretty solid:

any suggestions/comments are appreciated. thanks a lot.

I have the Neocase and I really like it.
Drawbacks:
1. The neoprene really attracts pet hair.
2. I'd like to use it as a sleeve in a bag, but some cases (Brenthaven Flex Fusion for example) fit so tight that you can't get the PB in with the NeoCase on.
Other than that , I like it a lot.

marware sportfolio sleeve... haha... i've recommended this case to everyone that posts; i'm certain some users must think i'm a salesman for the company...
seriously though, it's probably one of the best in terms of quality and value, especially if your looking for a sleeve type case...

I agree, I'm on my second powerbook and as soon as I brought it home I ordered a Marware sleeve. It fit my old 12 inch pb and now my 15 inch pb perfect (different sizes of course). I think I bought mine at macyummies or something like that...
Its like a body glove for your laptop

The thing I like about that Neosleeve is that it can stay on and act as a cover while you use the thing. And it looks like it can act as a nice sleeve and the handle is retractable.

i really like booq's vyper sleeve. Its really a great build quality. Simple and nothing too fancy. Hugging enough so you can stuff it into a laptop bag (i think)

I don't think you'd wanna use your pb in that sleeve, it doesn't look there's any ventalation in the rear and i would assume that neoprene against your pb wouldn't help much with heat disappation...

Waterfield designs. Had mine for 3 years, bought one for my wife's new powerbook last year. Great product, great service.
