I'm not opposed to just finding a different 1-shoulder affair, but it just seems like a backpack would help with some of those things also (especially one with a lightly padded back).
re: CM: Does anyone want to meet up before? I get off at 5:00 and I work at Bay & Davenport. I'm thinking about just going someplace for a coffee to kill time.
i used to have a timbuk2 and had the same issues. they're pretty sturdy, but really not that comfortable to wear. i would bet that if you plunked down some cash for a push the envelope or a pac you would feel a big difference in comfort, especially the push which are designed to be worn over a specific shoulder. most of the Pacs have a padded back, BTW. they sell them at urbane, you can do and try em on.
