    That's pretty slick looking. Who makes it? You have a model number or name or something too?

    The guy at the store cut the tag off for me, but I did a search online based on a little thing (the part that says 'made in china') and found where they sell 'em. Mine's red, but they come in different colors/sizes too, apparently! I'm not sure if mine's medium or large, but a bit bigger for the same price couldn't hurt ($19.99 USD)

    Christian Art Gifts

    EDIT:: I tried to put one in cart and go to checkout. It says they are a wholeseller so they don't sell to individuals, but you might be able to use their retail locater to find a place near you... or check ebay or something.

    Thanks, there's a retailer about 2 miles down the road from me. :)

    Targus dvd301-wm. It is a case for a 9" portable dvd player. Walmart for $14. It has enough room for all cables and external hd.

    I bought Caselogic E-Sling medium yesterday. It's perfect, I really like it.

    The price was 44 euros / 55 dollars in Croatia.

    I just bought the same case for my 10" with the 6 cell battery. I was looking for the smallest size with good storage and protection. The pocket on the back with the velcro closure easily holds the charger brick and cord. I keep the cord unplugged from the brick when storing and wrap them both up neatly, kind of like how it comes when new. The case wasn't cheap at $40 from Best Buy but I had a gift card so that's why I went there. Here's a few pics:

    I use the slip case that came with my AAO and stuff it into my backpack. I'll need to pick up something else soon since I bought a 6-cell battery. It gets annoying to keep swapping batteries so it will fit in the slip case.

    I'm feeling cheap... I wrap it in an old t-shirt for padding and stuff it in my purse. :D

    What sorta slipcase came with your AA1? Three sided vinyl sorta with a velcro strap over the open side? That's what came with mine and it fits the 6-cell fine. You can see a bit of it in the pictures I posted somewhere above in the thread.

    I use the case that comes with the AAO as a mousepad for my laser mouse(those things are picky about the mousing surface).

    This is the ICON dvd player case that I got on sale at radio shack for $1.87

    I have the other one. One open side that it just slides into. Only fits the 3-cell since the AAO enters from the side instead of the front like the one you have.

    I took the bladder from a hydration backpack (Camelback knockoff) and it's perfect. Small backpack, lots of pockets for accessoires and stuff, pretty perfect. You can find them at Target or Walmart. They're about $30. You need a neoprene sleeve to go with it though, I think (I use it anyway, just to be sure).

    I carry a Tenba Large Messenger Bag [tenba.com]. It's a little pricey, but I use it everyday on public transportation to carry too much stuff:

    - AA1
    -Canon Rebel xTi
    - extra lens
    - 2 spare 8gb SD cards
    - iPod
    - cheapo HD video camera
    - crackberry
    - Verizon Wireless Broadband USB card
    - wallet
    - current book
    - two pairs sunglasses
    - maglite
    - spyderco
    - multi-tool (small one)

    Because it goes everywhere with me, the cost didn't bother me. But sometimes the weight does!

    If anyone is looking for a good messenger bag for carrying your camera around with, I would highly recommend this. Very versatile. Some very nice features. Definitely large enough.

    I have this case from Radio Shack, too. It worked great when I had the 3-cell, but not so well with the 9-cell. BTW, I paid $3 for mine. You got a great deal! :)
