Audio Bag for Tascam DR-70D

I bought the Tascam DR-70D recorder, and since it explicitly was designed to also be able to be bagged, I wonder what bag you guys think would be good. I don't see any bag suggestions in the accessory lists with retailers like B&H, nor on Tascam's site. FWIW, the dimensions of the DR-70D are 6.7"W x 2.2"H x 4.3"D. Now, obviously the bag should accommodate the particular configuration of the DR-70, what with the placement of the LCD screen, access to media card port etc.. One other important note, that I personally intend to power the 70D through the USB with a powerbank, so the bag should at least be able to accommodate that. Now I'm not really looking for a giant bag where you can thrown in the kitchen sink and the 70D gets lost, so something on the smaller size I suppose, though a couple of extra pockets would be nice. I don't believe any bag specifically for the 70D has been created as yet (the way bags exist specifically for the 60D), and I don't want to wait around, so I'll need to buy something that can work in the meantime. Unfortunately, I have very little experience with bags, so I'm counting on a few pointers and recommendations. Thank you!
 
I sure PortaBrace and Pertro will have models available soon. Or a bag for like-sized devices would work as well.
For instance the Pertro 607, for 302 sized devices which only sightly larger than the DR-70 @ 6.6" x 2.1" x 4.1"~ the 302 is 8.4" x 1.8" x 4.5". The Petrol 607 also has ample room for multiple wireless and an external power system. (battery + distro)
 
Thanks, Rick. The Petrol 607 is nice and affordable, though you do have to buy the harness in addition which pushes up the cost somewhat. Still interested in more options...
 
The included shoulder strap would suffice for a while.. I used that prior to getting a Versa-Flex. Even with four G3 receivers and an external battery system it can't weigh much.
