    I'm looking for a bag for a 12" laptop. Want something small and light, yet big enough to carry my "stuff", but not too big that I carry too much and it gets too heavy!

    I'm currently using an Ebags Firewall Laptop brief. I like it a lot, but it's just too heavy and i tend to "stuff" it with things I don't really need. I need to be able to carry with a handle as well as a shoulder strap.

    Stuff to Fit: Laptop (currently a Compaq N400c, soon to be an HP nc4010)and power adaptor. PDA, MiniRouter, Cat Cables, USB Memory Key, pens, steno-pad notebook, magazines / papers. The occasional DVD.

    Potential Bags:
    Brenthaven Fusion 12: http://www.brenthaven.com/store/flash/pdf/apple/Fusion12MC.pdf
    STM Courrier Small: http://www.appletalk.com.au/articles/index.php?article=5645
    Booq Mamba XS: http://www.booqbags.com/Detail.bok?no=63

    The only bag i've seen in person is the Brenthaven - But the STM looks pretty slick too! The Booq is probably an outlier at this point.

    Does anyone have any experience with the Brenthaven or STM?
