Great topic! Keep those suggestions coming. The shoulder strap on my beloved SunDog bag snapped this weekend after 5 years of great service. Some features I'm looking for:

- Top loading (vs. lay the bag down flat, zip around, and unload laptop)
- Colour options (I'm tired of black, black, black! Like a little grey, navy blue or other interesting colours)
- Wheelie strap (usually on the back of the bag, to slide over the handle of my rollaboard)
- Compartment for files

I like the Tumi products, but they're really cost prohibitive. I have to believe that one can find good products also for a decent price. So far, from what's been mentioned, the Brenthaven sticks out, but loses on the colour options.
