I'm having a hard time deciding between the two bags... do you guys think the Ultralight will house all the contents of my sig, with a little bit of room to spare?

im in the same position. i was in a store today and put all my gear in the TT acceleration.
if you are going to get another body definately the acceleration because of the width but if you sticking with your gear the ultralight would get it done.

I ended up getting the Acceleration too :) It doesn't work out to be that much more expensive once you sell the Artificial Intelligence 15 ;) and the dividers that the Acceleration comes with are also a lot more flexible than the Ultralight.

It should.

I fit the following in my Ultralight:
1DMk2
50D
500/4
100-400
17-40
580EX
1.4x TC
2x TC
8x42 binos
portable hard drive w/ card reader
memory cards
Better Beamer

And the Ultralight is significantly lighter than the Acceleration - which is a big plus when you are flying with a bag already loaded with heavy gear.

EDIT - I see you have the Acceleration already. Good luck with the purchase.
