Yea, I used the Iliad bag since I've had it but I'm also very careful about my bag so it doesn't get a lot of bangs or drops if I have electronics in it. I definitely wouldn't recommend it for someone that has a bag with a lot of other heavy stuff in it, my bag usually consists of a cell phone, ipod, netbook (rarely) and my reader so it was pretty safe. However with the larger screen of the DR I realize its more prone to bending if nothing else because its larger so I need to be able to stabilize it better than my Iliad
My sort of master plan with the DR1000 is that I got a 13" zero shock case so it a little larger than the device itself. I'm hoping that I can get a regular resume type of portfolio case (like the standard ones with the little note pad in it) put that in the ZeroShock case so it won't bend and then have my reader in there. That way I get the ability to take the DR in and out of bag, I get the shock absorption protection of the ZeroShock bag and then the protection from bending from the portfolio case. With all of that the damn bag better be able to take a bullet
It amazes me that there aren't any slim hard sleeve cases for tablets or something. Its either bulky plastic or that vinyl or whatever the cloth ones are made of. I want something thats not very bulky but will protect it. The best one that I saw posted on here was the Pelican Hardback but from the picture it looked like it would be too bulky and heavy for me. I'll see how this works out and if not its back to the drawing board.
