Slightly modified itinerary.

Matt's friend Jake has to leave on September 7th and he wants to see Cambodia and Vietnam, so that's going to change our itinerary a bit.

We're going to eliminate the northern Thailand/Laos part of the trip. We're still planning on arriving in Bangkok (myself the 24th, Matt and Jake the 25th) and then go to Koh Tao until Sept 1st. At that point we'll head back to Bangkok and head to Siem Reap in Cambodia to visit Angkok Wat. We'll then either head to Phnom Penh for a day or two or go right to Saigon.

Once Jake heads out, Matt and I will figure out what we want to do. We might head up to visit Chang Mai/Luang Prabang. Or more likely we'll be beach bums and work our way up the Vietnamese coast to Hanoi. Possibly bump over to Hong Kong for a few days and then head to Japan. We are both interested in getting some quality suits made for us, and Hong Kong is a great and relatively inexpensive place to do it.
