i don't see enough on sleeves. what sleeve for the 17inch are you all using? what do you recommend?

Oh yeah. Get the flap. If not, your sleeve is kind of "open" on one side.
Also think about D-rings and strap for using it "standalone".

I've been very happy without the flap. Sure, one side is open, but it's not really exposed. And the sleeve is thinner and easier to put into other bags.

Tucano, check the Apple Store UK for sleves and you'll see what I'm talking about.

I have the Sfbags Cargo Medium with Sleevcase and Gearpouch. Very happy. Can use the bag with or without laptop - and when I do have my PB inside you cant tell. Just looks like a normal town bag. Expenisve but worth it. Gary, the owner is very friendly and the service is first class. The also do very nice iPod and iSight cases.

Timbuk2 xxl sleeve here for my 17". I like it becuase it has handles to carry it around in. It also has a half inch of padding all around plus it has a buckle to keep it secure at the top. NO ZIPPERS. Don't buy a sleeve with zippers.
