    Hey, I need a backpack or messenger case for my dv2000. Something that can store my baby together with her accessories (power adaptor, cable, PC card), PDA, Calculator, CDs, and a book up to 1000 pages.

    Any ideas?

    Best thing to do is cruise the links in the stickied list of dealers and start deciding what you like. All but the slimmest backpacks will haul the stuff you mention--you need to decide what other factors matter to you before you'll be able to make an informed distinction. Sternum strap? Water-bottle holder? Hip belt? Suspended laptop compartment? There are more options than you might at first think.

    Once you find a style of pack you like, you ought to be able to find a lot of good advice with just a simple search of this subforum :) We hope :)

    Good luck with your search.
