The Cache

[yeti]

Redesign of the Absolute Shoulder Strap? When/where was this mentioned? I'm getting the feeling that I miss a lot of the latest news for some reason -- is this all happening on Twitter these days (I don't use Twitter, but I check the blog and forums regularly)? In any case, when is this likely to debut? It's very exciting.

hi tom, darcy,

what do you think about including loops on the back of the cache for annex clips the way the brain cells have?

it's a nice way to keep the cache in place inside of the bags that have annex clips, and shouldn't take away from the form or function of the cache otherwise.

I second this request. My biggest problem with the current soft cell/brain bag set up I have is that the soft cell comes half out the bag when removing my laptop.

Mav, would that not defeat the Checkpoint-Friendly aspect of The Cache? I don't have a Brain Cell/Soft Cell so I don't really know the makeup of the attaching hardware on them.

Wherever the webbing loops get sewn, you'd have compressed foam - and pushing into the compressed foam would be the Annex clips. That wouldn't be a good thing for the laptop.

hi darcy,

that's a good point! any other thoughts on how to have the cache be attached to one side of a bag?

thanks!

We tweeted about it a couple of days ago. No time-frame or further details just yet!

What's the size difference between Cache-Netbook M and S? Only the M is listed right now.

Disregard the M and S - there is (and will only be ) one Netbook size of Cache.

I'm really impressed with the Cache I purchased for my MacBookPro 13" unibody. The fit is perfect, and the attention to detail is as meticulous as all my other Tom Bihn products. The degree of padding seems to be just right. The fabric is smooth, but not slick. It feels nice. The interior fabric is soft and makes me feel comfortable sliding the computer in and out.

I'm going to be carrying the Cache in my Brainbag and found that the computer in the Cache drops into my old Brain Cell perfectly in vertical orientation. Double padding, but that's no problem. Very nice work once again from Tom Bihn and crew. Thanks!

(I can't wait to see how it works in the Synapse.)
