Hey guys,
I am trying to find a new laptop bag to take with me in my frequent travels! I've finally decided too ditch the Dell XPS M1730, its been a great desktop replacement, but a killer on the shoulder when travelling.
I'll most likely be picking up a HP Envy 15 in a few weeks. Now, I need a laptop/travel bag, something of medium size, too fit the laptop, power cords, external DVD drive, plus other travel essentials such as water bottle, magazines, pens, books, Nintendo DS etc.
I have a Booq 17" basic laptop bag already for the XPS, but it is very basic, designed for 17" laptops and not really suited. Booq make a damn nice bag though, they aren't cheap, but the quality and warranty is excellent.
I've pretty much narrowed it down to these choices now:
Booq Taipan 15" Laptop Slim Case M - Black

Booq Mamba Saddle 15" Laptop Bag - Black
http://rushfaster.com.au/product.php?pProductID=BOQ-MSD-BLK
Booq Boa Case M 13-15" Laptop Bag
http://rushfaster.com.au/product.php?pProductID=BOQ-BCM-BLK
Out of these three, the Mamba Saddle would have been perfect, but it doesn't have a carry handle, which is infuriating! I know carry handles don't look that great too some people, but couldn't they have put the subtle Boa case nylon handle on? Perfect size, great understated looks, reasonable price.
The Taipan looks like it will be too small, which leaves the Boa Case M. The Boa looks like a well thought out bag, I'm not the biggest fan of its looks though. Also, it appears to be quite large, larger than what I wanted. Plus its considerably more expensive than the other two.
Anyone have any suggestions/advice? Anyone by chance know of a bag that looks similar to the Mamba Saddle, but has a carry handle?
Cheers guys!
