Thanks. You've definitely convinced me. Since I've already got 3 22s (with and without expanders), why bother trying to push the envelope for 1" when I'm only going to use it for LHR!
I'll most likely get the Briggs 20"...

I've had nothing but great experience with Briggs. Their stuff seems to be about as bullet-proof as anything I've found, and great value.
That said, I'm always interested in recommendations. I don't mind paying up (Tumi, etc.) if there's something in it as to a feature that actually would be helpful to me.
