    Anyone here use a Brain Cell for their M570U? If so, how do you like it? If not, what's another good sleeve? I'm drawn to the Brain Cell because of the hard sides and soft padding.

    Have a look at the Links to Notebook Bag Makers, Dealers and Reviews.

    I don't know much about sleeves, but there are a lot of links on that website for everything.
    I use a heys ePac17 (backpack for my 17" notebook). If you're interested in a backpack I'd recommend it.

    I already have a massive, waterproof messenger bag that cost over $200, so I'm only interested in a good sleeve.

    Well I wasn't sure what kind of sleeve you wanted. After peeking at the Vrain cell, you might want to take a look at the Booq PowerSleeve XXL. I have it and like it very much when I want to travel light.

    Jesus Christ, those are expensive. But nice looking.

    Unfortunately due to the layout of my big bag, i need a horizontal bag for the laptop.

    I have a M570U and a Bihn backpack with a soft cell sleeve. I didn't think that the Brain Cell came in a size large enough for the M570U! I will say, however, that the build quality on everything I got from Bihn is high. I've been very happy with the both the backpack and the soft cell sleeve.

    I was considering the Messenger bag myself, but since I ride my bike to work in the summer I wanted to have a backpack...
