Obviously, this one is for the ladies… Vera Bradley has introduced a laptop backpack that is almost guaranteed to look like you’re carrying anything other than computer equipment for safer commuting. It has a padded compartment for a laptop (up to 15″), an organizer compartment on the front, and another compartment with room for more [...]

And so, the Gadgeteer Bag Lady falls in love again. The CODi Dispatch Vertical Messenger Laptop bag is yet another move in the right direction towards forward thinking accessories manufacturers who recognize that not everyone carries around a full sized laptop.

Ok. Anyone who has read the Gadgeteer knows that I love laptop bags. I have no idea why…some people collect stamps… I collect laptop bags. I have two sizes of computers… my large Dell and my 10.2 inch Acer Aspire One Netbook. I’m a writer so I lug my laptops around with me everywhere and [...]

About six years ago, my employer presented me with a laptop to use as my primary work computer. It was handed to me along with an ugly little basic black laptop bag, and soon I was carrying this bag with me to and from work every day. It wasn’t long before I abandoned that bag [...]

First off, I REALLY love Saddleback‘s motto of ‘They’ll fight over it when you’re dead’. That is saying something in today’s disposable society; where electronics are engineered to last a few years before their battery dies, motherboard fries, or they simply self destruct. Saddleback believes their products are so well made they guarantee them for [...]

Whether being environmentally conscious is the “thing” to do these days or whether they really mean it, Keen Inc., appears to really mean it. Making the right choices in the materials they use in their lifestyle apparel products is the hallmark of the Keen mission statement. As a recycler in a disposable society, I can [...]

Timbuk2, makers of the recognizable 3-panel messenger bags (which are great for holding our gadgetry) have recently redesigned their very popular Classic Messenger Bag. The “Classic Messenger 2010″ has added functional features which some thought were lacking in the previous version. As in the past, it is available in two styles, pre-built and custom. Both [...]

I wouldn’t consider myself someone who collects lots of tools. But I do have enough tools that it has gotten a little out of control in our garage. It has reached a point where I have to question myself about where that tool is that I am looking for. So I jumped at the chance [...]

LapDome Inc. makes a line of the most unusual laptop bags I’ve seen. These bags, when collapsed, look like more regular laptop bags. Some are padded and used to carry your laptop; some are not padded and are meant to be carried in your regular laptop bag as an accessory. All pop open to make a [...]

More then just funny capitalization (yes, that’s really how they spell it) Kamiliun uses a modular system to create a flexible backpack/bag system from mix-and-match components. I received the Chicken or the Egg package consisting of a ‘letterbox’ back on the left, above, designed to carry a laptop or other large slab-like objects, and a [...]

Aerovation is among a small group of companies that has been certified by the TSA to manufacture and market approved cases that allow you to not have to take your laptop out for the trip through the x-ray machine. How do these bags work, and are they worth the effort? We’ll see.

UNIEA manufactures cases of nearly every shape and size, engineered to protect your valuable tech-equipment from the dangers of the daily grind. Their Omniverse 13.3-inch Macbook (or similar sized laptop) Universal Tote (and the matching hard drive case) are no different.

On the heels of the itsy-bitsy T-Pack for netbooks comes Timbuk2‘s new Breakout Messenger, a generously-sized bag designed for your hulking 17″ laptop. A cross between their Outtawhack Daypack and the Commute Messenger, this seems to be an answer to the critique that even the Large Commute was just not quite large enough for a [...]

My daughter needed a laptop bag that would carry her Dell 14” Inspiron 1420 laptop and a few essentials. She doesn’t take her computer to school, so she had no need for a huge bag with room for books, notebooks, and the like. She just needed the laptop, power brick, and a few other basics [...]

The Sumo Laptop Purse is not just a laptop bag, it is a laptop PURSE. And yes, there is a difference. If you are anything like me, you end up carrying several different bags daily, including a laptop bag, purse, gym bag, lunch, etc. Hooray for laptop purses like this one made by Sumo, because [...]

Gear bags are all the rage these days, most sporting voluminous cc’s of storage space and a plethora of pockets and compartments for storing our gadgety goodies. The BUILT Laptop Backpack follows a bit different philosophy. Looking like a cross between a sport parachute pack and a bullet-proof vest, this über slim and contoured carrier [...]

A few years back my car was a SAAB 95 estate (station wagon). The 95 is perhaps not so large by US standards, but for most of us Europeans its a big beast. For vacations we really did not have to care about packing – we just threw everything in the back. For the last [...]

I remember as a kid traveling with my parents (aka, back in the day) when there was no security at the airport or during college being able to say goodbye to my girlfriend at the gate. But sadly those days are forever gone…. Today, we have painfully long lines to get through security where you [...]

I’m pretty particular about what I want in a laptop bag. I tend to prefer backpacks because of the more even weight distribution, but I’ve recently been using messenger bags again. My current favorite is the Ice Red Drift. When Julie sent me the Expand-It from BBP bags, I thought it looked interesting – but [...]
