M-Edge Journey Bag ($69)

M-Edge makes a variety of Kindle and iPad cases, and the Journey is one of its few bags. At first glance, it's as sleek and sharp as a form-fitting suit. Available in red, blue, or black, our model looked a bit too metrosexual the more we used it. Even worse, although the zippered compartments inside are quite roomy (the iPad also gets its own padded zippered pocket), the large, stiff front panel is useless--a middle buckle is hard to unsnap on the go, and a lack of front pockets on the interior or outer flaps make this a terrible pedestrian commuter bag. It will, however, look respectable for a job interview.
