fatwabbit 93 Report post Posted September 11, 2006 Anyone have any good backpacks to recommend? something that is functional, doesnt always get you stopped at the airport/customs and does not break the piggy bank?I've look at Targus, and Booqbags, but am leaning more towards the Targus...

morty 0 Report post Posted September 11, 2006 I've had my Targus backpack for a year now and its working out fine. I paid around 40 or 50 cdn i think. Lots of room in it for all my books and whatever else i have to keep in there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dante2004 0 Report post Posted September 11, 2006 I cannot recommend this backpack enough.NICE laptop bagI use it for business travel and don't have a single complaint. Small enough to fit under the seat in front of you on an airplane, yet big enough for a laptop (I have a widescreen), accesories, books, folders, etc. Whatever you intend to take in the bag. Nice padded straps also.The Best Buy price on their website is a bit high. I bought mine at Best Buy for $54, but I think it was mis-priced. You can find it on other websites for a little cheaper. The best buy site just had the best picture/description, so I included that link. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tjl_48 0 Report post Posted September 11, 2006 I have a Swiss laptop backpack and love it. I have had it for 2 years and it is awesome. Not the same as Dante. I think I paid 40 or 50 for mine. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jjtt99 0 Report post Posted September 11, 2006 I'm with Dante and TJL. The Swiss brand laptop bags are great. This is the one I use:http://www.nextag.com/Swiss-Army-Computer-...501/prices-html Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

WBGMike 2 Report post Posted September 12, 2006 I use one made by Reebok, but the issue is every airport asks that you seperate your lap top from the rest of your stuff when you go thru security Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fatwabbit 93 Report post Posted September 13, 2006 I have to take the laptop out as well... what I meant was that the laptop bag would still meet the regulations for travel as carry on luggage...I think I'll just stick to a simple one ... thanks guys Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
