I've got one of the Brenthaven bags designed for the 17" PB's and it's quite nice. They are a bit pricey though. I think mine was around $170.
Wesley: Illyria can be...difficult. Testing her might be hard without getting someone seriously hurt. Angel: We'll make Spike do it. Wesley: Good.

Trust my rage
Like ND, I have the Brenthaven backpack, although mine is for my 15". I love it very much and take it with me everywhere.
I think ND is right on when it comes to the screen. When I do audio/viedo editting on my laptop, I'm always wishing I had a larger monitor (although it's okay w/a 15"). However, I edit maybe once a month while I need to fit my laptop plus textbooks on the table in front of me at school everyday. I think the choice is highly dependent on what you plan to use it for.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
Lee's got a 17" Power Book.

I got the Linksys PAP2 and the Vonage service for my FAX line and it seems to be working quite well.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
I am upstairs, on the Internet, on my Mac.
I am as a god among men.

Does anyone know if the USB port on the Tivo is a USB 2.0 port? If it isn't then going wired isn't going to help much.
On the "nightlight" Series 2 Tivos, I believe the capability is there but not yet activated in firmware. At CES, they hinted that USB 2.0 support should be in firmware released later this spring. (It's not part of the 7.1 release that's being rolled out at the moment.)
The Tivo in my room is networked to the router wirelessly, but in my parents' bedroom, I have a Netgear FA 120 adapter plugged into the Tivo with the ethernet cable running from that to the router's wired ports. It definitely makes a difference. We only have an 802.11b network, but when I use Tivo Publisher to view photos through the Tivo, it's practically useless on my unit because it's too slow going wireless from the laptop to the router and back to the unit in my room, but everything appears fine on the wired Tivo. Transfers between the units aren't too bad, averaging just a tad over real time.
My iPod Shuffle arrived today....it's so cute!

The thing's so small, I'll have to try hard not to. ;)

All is well that ends in pizza.
Perhaps you can lick it.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Don't lick the USB end. Also, brush your teeth first.
