I was in the same dilemma myself, but ended up going with the Chrome Metro. I think it was $120, which was about as much as I wanted to spend. I like it a lot. It has a ton of capacity and I never thought I had too much room or too little. I think the only downside to the Metro is the buckle. Granted it works well, but using it in class it makes a **** ton of noise and the profs always stare at me in class.
