I went to a chain electronics store and found several notebook computer carry cases, soft side with padding for under $20, for my 997. The little built in pockets are handy for carrying extra SDHC card and electronic screen wipes etc. I always tow boat to lakes and carry 997 in its case in car, never trail boat with 997 on boat, twofold-- soft ride in car & keeps honest folks honest cause its not out where then can grab it when stopping for gas, bait, & san-mich.....
