My order from Waterfield Designs arrived last night. Customer service was right, the NC10 netbook in the Waterfield netbook sleeve does fit in the small VertiGo, but just barely. I can fit the sleeved netbook, and the power cord, but not my external mouse. A smaller, notebook mouse would probably fit, or if you used the slimmer sleeve that comes with most netbooks you'd have a little more space.

There is still a little bit of room left inside, and the 2 external pockets, any of those 3 spaces should be enough to fit the new Kindle, if it is as slim as Amazon says.

If you want to carry anything more than the netbook, power cord, and Kindle, I'd recommend the medium Vertigo (or, whatever their recommended size of their other bags is) and I'll probably be picking one up myself for days I can't travel light or want to carry my MacBook.

You could always format c:\ and put Linux on it. Then you don't have to worry about viruses and crashes.

timbuk2.com has great bags. They are extremely popular in chicago for the office profs and what have you that ride the "L". I use one, for work, class, and I even carried my groceries in mine. Mine can hold a full case of budwieser lol. Extremely durable. Its got pockets to seperate your stuff. I now use it to carry my laptop, phone, ipod, over the ear bose headphones, a couple books (will be replaced when kindle comes lol) and my camera with no problem. You can get them in many sizes. I swear, ya can beat the heck out of these bags and theyll still keep walkin lol.

any one have any thoughts? Granted I have until june before the netbook will arrive but i could get the bag now (when the kindle arrives in 2-4 weeks HAH!)

Thanks all (or in the language of my uber youth, Diolch)

This Etsy designer has adjusted one of her designs to fit the new Kindles! (It should also fit the K1s) I am going to do another post. But they are very cute and only $25.

Very cool! I made a bag very similar to that design for my 505.

This is my bag. It's for my Cybook, but it's more than enough to fit any other 6" ereader in the market.

Now I can bring it with me to anywhere.
