    I recently bought a MBP 13" (newest one). I need to find a case for it, the charger, security cable, mouse, 2-3 cords (Ethernet, iphone, maybe a random one). I currently have a 13" hp laptop and a case for it, that fits all of that, I would like to get a similar style/size case, but a tad bigger.

    The case is small, its basically a sleeve, but with a front flap for my stuff. The case has suffered 3+ years of me, so I can not just use that on the MBP. I have looked on amazon, the thread up top, google search for a case that suites me, most seem huge.

    I am also looking for a BT mouse (v550 user here), I like the M555B, but I am not sure about the battery life. Can anyone recommend a simple mouse with good battery life? Or one that comes with a cable and can plug into to the computer to charge (orchi style).


    -Thanks

    I have a STM Small Alley shoulder bag that I use to carry about what you've described, plus 1-3 books/notepads. Very small, very light, and water tight!

    I use a logitech revolution (VX) mouse, and I'm happy with it. I usually get between 4-5 months of battery with it, though it is an RF mouse (don't know if that will be a problem).

    MBP 13" has only 2 usb ports, so I want to keep as open as possible.

    Thanks for pointing me to that bag, its now the main one I am considering.
