    Hi there,

    I just ordered a M1330 + 6 cell battery (13.3") from Dell a few days ago with a 15.4" Belkin Messenger Bag.
    I don't really like to wear Messenger Bags since they tend to look a bit feminine but the design of the Belkin Messenger Bag seemed really schweet so I went for it.
    Now, after browsing the dell website for a while I found out that they have a backpack version of it as well.

    Couldn't really find any reviews of it so I'm wondering if any of you guys own one of these bags and the M1330.

    Long story short:
    My main concern is, that either bag'll have too much space, allowing the laptop to jump around the bag too much.
    I've heard, that the strap on the Messenger bag isn't too adjustable. I'm 6', I hope it's not going to be a problem.
