Well, I've never seen Macs wake themselves from sleep before when closed.

I'll make sure I keep my laptop open as I go on the commute (sarcasm).

Taking the serious side of this -- I have had multiple generations of Mac laptops wake up in my bag and get hot.

The cause seems to be that if there is enough vibration to trip the lid sensor, the Mac decides it's open and wakes up.

The workaround is to diable wake on open (I forget where the setting is), making it necessary to hit a key after opening to really wake the machine.

Never had a problem since.
