I think the first CO plane with the new Boeing Sky interior is supposed to be a 738, ship #528 (reg N76528). Perhaps you, pptp, or one of your CO brethren might be able to find an updated delivery timeline...

I vaguely remember reading something about it a while back. I just can't remember where and it would take way too long to go through all of the different publications. Maybe tv_man has some info, or we'll just have to wait and see. I'll PM him and ask.

I'll usually put my laptop bag underneath the seat with my size 16s on either side, or, even better, is against my seat with my legs in front of it. There is entirely too much of me around to try to fit anything else.

No way I could fit my laptop bag and the feet under the seat at the same time. My bag fits under the seat just fine, but it leaves no space for my feet.

I suppose it would depend on the size of the bag. My personal laptop is a tiny old thing that takes up little space. The two laptops I have to carry for work take up quite a bit more.

My laptop bag ain't small. I carry as little as possible with me for work every week, but, unfortunately, I absolutely need everything in it.

Mine isn't small either. Big, old Lowepro bag that fills the seat underneath. I'm always surprised when it does fit. Once the flight gets airborne I usually pull it back towards me for the legroom. Then again, I don't remember the last time I sat in a non-exit row whY seat. And also I'm not over 6'5", laser rocket arm...
