That's right, the Sport case uses the air cushion suspension, not the sling.

When you look through the case listings at www.port.inc, you will see which
suspension each case uses. From my own experience, I strongly recommend
against the sling suspension. The air cushion sounds like a much better
setup, and it also happens to be similar to what other major case
manufacturers like Tenba and Targus use.

I've always liked Tenba camera bags a lot; I'm tempted to try one of their
computer cases or backpacks sometime.
