I haven't had much problem with either dust or water-logging, particularly if I use Scotchguard on the canvas. The practical advantage to nylon seems to be durability. Canvas has a somewhat nicer feel in use. But the real advantage of the J803 seems to be that it is a little thicker ... 4.5" rather than 4". That could be interesting as my only complaint with the F803 is that it's a little bit narrower than I'd like, same for the Timbuk2 Commute XL once I put the laptop in.
