The Vaio TR series is wonderfully compact, but unfortunately, the
average laptop bag is big enough to hold four of them. I've been
searching for a proper-sized case for over a year now.
I finally found it in the portable DVD player section in Fry's.
Here's a few pics:

experiment with dyes / paint. (Price is only $30)

That is a nice bag, but I'm used to carrying around more accessories so
I would find it a bit too compact. Actually I have a generic bag that
came with a second hand Compaq Armada 7400 some years ago and I tend to
use that with the TR1 mounted vertically down one side (the velcro strap
is fortunately offset!) and various accessories on the right and in the
cover pouch.
On several occasions I've managed to house the TR1, a Psion Series 7,
three AC adaptors, an HP Pocket PC and docking cradle, a wireless
network adaptor, several CD-ROMs and a gamepad all in that old Armada
bag.
And it still has room for some papers in the side pocket!

From your heading, I'd assumed that you'd shot a brace of them.
