Hi
I have been reading through the forums on suggestions for sleeves. (I prefer a sleeve to a bag because I would like to be able to just put it in a bag and easier for airport scanners)
I do not plan to through my unibody macbook pro (15.4 inch) from a truck, but something to protect it well would be good, at least for basic drops.
http://podcasts.macnn.com/brenthaven.m4v (this video demos the brenthaven bags though, not sleeves, so not sure if there is a difference but 2 bags do look slim)
I looked up Brenthaven and saw they have 3 levels of protection"
http://www.brenthaven.com/core-protection-levels.html
The sleeves for pro 15.4 have the core light protection such as:

or the lower, standard protection:
http://www.brenthaven.com/catalog-eclipse-ii-sl-jetblack-apple.html
And I do not know if I need the premium protection for the macbook to handle drops. If its not, I can save money and get a sleeve.
Some others that I have found that seem compatible but I don't know how sturdy they are in comparison:

Shinza (but no size for unibody pro)
http://www.radtech.us/Products/MacTruck.aspx (nice but pricey)
http://www.axio-usa.com/hardsleeve15.html (not available for new unibody, also pricey)
Thanks for any feedback, suggestions or help.
