I'm looking for a soft sleeve for my Macbook Pro 15", to use inside a backpack or messenger bag. What's the best bang for the buck? Photos or links get extra karma points!
 
I have the booq taipan for my new MBP and I really like it. It seems like it has more shock protection than most sleeves. (the vyper will give you even more if you want, for a price)

If you look at the bottom of the page there's the same one as above in brown that's $5 cheaper, idk why. But warning: It is much darker than the picture, which I learned the hard way. But still pretty nice.

And oh, use coupon code KMG10 for 10% off
 
Don't look further than Tucano (Milan-based company).

I have always used the Elements series since my PB G4 days, snug fit, scratch protection, and unlike some of the kiddy cases with bright crayon colours, they have that professional/design look about them.

The booq Vyper is the best protection I've ever seen in a notebook sleeve. In my opinion, it offers far better protection than any neoprene case, the zippers never come into contact with your MBP, and it looks great!
