I recently changed to a backpack after the carry case was hurting my
shoulder quite a bit.

I've got an STM Sports Backpack
(http://www.standardtm.com.au/original_sports.html). Not sure of their
availability outside Australia but they have an adjustable, padded section
that holds the laptop and space for other items. The bag is extremely
comfortable and with the load of the laptop (7lbs) it is barely noticable.

Has a lifetime warranty, I've had it for a few months now and even though I
take it everywhere including on planes, etc. it still looks like new.

About AUD$130 (US$65) so it certainly doesn't break the bank.
