Matt,
this is the same case I use when the Newt is going to get bumped around. Good to see another bargain-savvy Michigander hits Big Lots. :)
I actually made a nice, custom corduroy sleeve that my 2100 slides into, with two small pockets on the front, one for the cross stylus I use for note-taking in seminars, and one for my Wifi card. The two pockets are designed to look like one pocket off the back of a pair of pants. Even complete with a red button. The inside is lined with a red velour material, and it is padded lightly (but enough for use in my satchel). It has gotten me plenty of comments, and my wife loves the fact that I sew.
