    Hi,
    I was looking for a sleeve or backpack for my Lenovo R61i.
    If I get the sleeve, I will be putting it inside my usual backpack.
    I'll probably be carrying a book or two along with the laptop.

    The laptop must be protected from the elements (waterproof).

    I checked out the Shinza ZeroShock sleeves, but am unsure about their waterproof-ness.
    I am also interested in the Mobile Edge Express or Premium backpacks, but am similarly unsure about their waterproof-ness.

    Any ideas or suggestions?

    Thanks in advance.

    It seems that I can only buy the Mobile Edge Express from eBags.com, and it would cost $67 CAD. Other places do not seem to ship to Canada (including ebay sellers).

    Any other suggestions? Is this worth the $67?
