The small side pockets do a great job of holding a lens cleaning kit, small flashlight, small cell phone, but not much else as it's a pain to get anything in or out. The anti-Bluetooth pocket is a pretty cool touch. The strap is pretty tame and should have received more attention during the design stage. I love the flap enclosure. Great every day bag.

I've been using this for the past year and not had any problems with it. Good size laptop compartment with strong padding at the bottom.

Cons: Too small, this is a bag designed for you to travel light. Power supply, pens, notebook, mouse, glasses, phone, mp3 player and that's it, full.

If you want to pop your sandwiches in there too forget it. In addition I find the flap to be annoying now especially if I want to get at my keys or something.

Build quality is damned good as is all Oakley gear. I've been using it on the Underground, flights, trains the lot every day and it's taken the punishment.

So if you travel light it's great, want a bit more storage look at another bag.

the interior liner has separated in a couple places were upon further inspection the stitching was too close to the edge of the material, and worst thing, the nylon loop that holds the D ring to the bag spontaneously let got (interior stitched so no way to repair). A quick hand saved the laptop bag from slamming onto the concrete. The plus side is the outside looks as new as the day I got it, but otherwise I was a bit surprised at the poorer than expected quality. I'm not giving up though, I just ordered the S.I. bag yesterday. We'll see if that's better.

After a year+ of using the AP Sandbag I needed a change. Both physically and stylistically. The Vertical 2.0 caught my eye at an Apple store and was exactly waht I was looking for in a computer/work bag. The option for carrying it on either shoulder or cross my chest. Space for my current iBook and with room enough to spare to accomodate the larger laptop I am looking to get later this year. Two sections large enough for papers and files, one protected and one easy access, and the organizer section of this bag is hands down teh best I have seen in any Oakley bag to date. Though some pockets are for phone and PDA – iPod, cleaner for my glasses and so on fit more than well.

Very nice design, works with my 15" IBM. I was not too crazy about the SI and other model, but this thing can work when I really have to wear suit and tie.
I prefered the 1.0, but now I can't find them anymore.

I still can't figure out the bungee code on the side...holding a Red Bull size can???

It could a little more padding in my opinion, and some padding for the PDA pouch.

Quality is excellent.

Pros:
-Many pockets and sleeves to put documents, pens, accessories and laptop in
-Feels pretty good and not too big. Excellent build quality (measures up to the oakley brand)
-looks awesome
-not heavy

Cons:
-side mesh pockets not very functional
-can be pricey for the conscious consumer
-could have made it slightly smaller (take an inch off the side)

Summary:
Excellent computer bag by oakley. There are more than enough pockets for your documents and notebook. I would recommend this to a light traveller as it will hold all your essential items and not too much excess baggage would be left unused. All in all, highly recommended and you would not be making a bad choice in purchasing this bag. I would try testing it in person to see if it fits your bill, but if you are not able to do so i still think you would be 100% satisfied with this. 5/5.

one of those gotta have it at first sight. Slightly different from the 1.0 version with some similarity but the improvement is vast. I wouldn't get the 1.0 version because it looks plain compared to this. The shoulder strap of the 2.0 is an added bonus with the "O" stitching on it.

I completely agree with Thomas on this one. This bag has turned carrying my laptop into something I actually don't mind doing. The bag has a nice protective pad at the bottom which gives me piece of mind as I use the Tokyo subway quite often. I know my computer is safe in this bag. It has more than enough storage for other items. The toggle clasp on the outside pocket is a nice touch. In all, I can't think of a better way to tote your laptop around. Perfect score.

Great looking bag, fit my 15.4" Vaio notebook perfectly. The padding in this bag very good and protect the computer well. It has a lot of compartments on the front and sides for all of your computer accessories,portables and stuff. The strap is very well padded so is comfortable to wear. I love it and I give this bag a perfect 5/5.
