I'm one of those people that once they buy something with a touchscreen LCD I like to put some protective around it. Especially something like a tablet hybrid. I don't see anything made for the Duo 11 and I've been paranoid to where I don't take the duo 11 outside or even in a laptop bag because the screen is always facing up.

For my Yoga or Thinkpad Yoga I flip it into notebook mode and put it in a slim case. The duo screen is always facing the outside and I'm paranoid about random particles of sand or what not scratching the screen.

I have the Sony screen protector (that was bundled with it) on mine, and I keep it in a soft laptop bag. It's been travelling with me for over a year and never had any issues.

If the screen is facing outwards it is more vulnerable to damage, e.g. if you accidentally knock the bag against the corner of a table. A sheet of cork or styrofoam between the screen and the bag seems sensible. You could even line the bag with it.
