For the new laptop case, I was looking for the basic features: Protect my laptop, Space for accessories (power, cables, mini-mouse, i-touch, ear buds, headphones), Externally accessible front pocket for travel-related paperwork, Room for a couple of books, Wide carrying strap/handle, easy to process through airport security as a carry-on, and looks professional.
So, what makes the ´Targus CityGear Miami Messenger Case´ the 17-inch laptop travel case to own?
Space for Accessories: For a 17-inch laptop case, it is reasonably sized (5-inch depth) to include accessories yet avoids being the laptop travel case equivalent of an SUV. There are several small pockets (both zippered mesh and velcro flap). Two of the mesh pockets are especially convenient for USB drives, iTouch/pod, ear buds. The larger velcro flap pockets easily store power adapters/cords and other items such as a mini-mouse, cables. Note: The picture shows a maximally loaded travel case; something I rarely do.
Front Pocket: For quick access to important travel-related paperwork, the zippered pocket on the front flap satisfies. The pocket is large enough to include 8.5x11 inch material. However, a standard manilla folder is too large to fit in this pocket.
Room for Books: Next to the padded laptop compartment is another full-length/width compartment for large flat items such as manilla folders, reports, books. With a maximum compartment depth of about 2 inches, there are some sizing restrictions (place books side-by-side instead of stacking).
Overall, I like using this 17-inch Targus laptop travel case and recommend it highly. Safe travels .... And summed up by saying First-class laptop (17-inch) travel case. Currently Targus CityGear Miami Messenger Case for 17 Inch Notebooks TCG200 (Black with Grey) has an overall rating of 8 over 10.
