Currently I have the PhotoTrekker AW, which is really thick (15") and quite heavy. I've lugged it around Australia and Europe and I'm now looking for something lighter and more airline friendly.
15"? 15cm maybe? The CompuTrekker Plus is about the same size as the PhotoTrekker. I originally bought the Plus, but when I got home, I figured that I might be pushing my luck with that and a rollaboard, so I went back to the store and switched.

I now have a Computrekker AW, and I carry a fairly similar set of gear: Canon 20D and 10D, both with grips, 80-400/5.6, 70-200/2.8 and 28-70/2.8. Plus a ThinkPad X61. Adding a flash does make it a bit of a tight fit, unless I leave my backup body at home.
