Day Bags

Today's globe-trotter follows a simple mantra: light and wired. Here are the best bags and tech to trim your load and power your next getaway.   
Text by Steve Casimiro   Photograph by Jeff Harris

1. Sleek Satchel
At 13-by-11 inches (33-by-28 centimeters), the Roots Milano ($398; www.roots.com) is too small for most laptops but ideal for carrying the essentials plus a little more. The vertically oriented leather bag has four small external pockets (phone, PDA, chocolate-covered espresso beans) and one zippered enclosure.

2. Urban Player
Strong, clean lines and style-conscious details separate the Ogio Urboe ($59; www.ogio.com) visually from other packs, but the real kicker hides inside: a side-access laptop compartment and a dedicated charger and cord pocket.

3. Creative Courier
The Patagonia Lightweight Travel Tote ($70; www.patagonia.com) is such a multitasker, it could coin a new term: übertility. The 11.5-ounce (28-gram) ripstop nylon hauler makes a terrific schlepper, doubles as a backpack, and even folds into a pouch.

4. Strongman
"Tote" is a dainty little word, but the Timbuk2 Cargo Tote ($70; www.timbuk2.com) is anything but. Made of ballistic nylon with extra-long, heavy-duty handles, the waterproof carrier brings a masculine edge to a lightweight handbag.

5. Executive Assistant
The Victorinox Swiss Army Charles Delux Laptop Messenger ($130; www.swissarmy.com) is padded like a hockey goalie and loaded with useful bells and whistles, such as zippered stash pockets, a cell-phone holder, and an iPod sleeve. It'll keep your 17-inch (43-centimeter) laptop safe and electronic detritus supremely organized.

Weekend Bags

1. The Businessman
The Quiksilver Premium Carry On ($550; www.quiksilver.com) is a surprisingly urbane luggage offering from a surfwear brand, with features such as a laptop sleeve, Dopp kit, and other extra organizers. At 11 pounds (5 kilograms), though, it's the heaviest here.

2. The Gentleman
If you prefer to cap the day's action with a button-down soiree, consider the Eagle Creek Overnight Tri-Fold Garment Bag ($200; www.eaglecreek.com), with internal pockets to accommodate EC's Pack-It system pouches. Your shirts will stay fresh-pressed and your weekend toys in place.

3. The Wanderer
More rhino skin than canvas and waxed with paraffin for water resistance, the burly 22-ounce (624-gram) cotton twill Filson Small Duffel Bag ($195; www.filson.com) might survive the rigors of travel better than you. Complaints? Only that it takes ages to break in.                                                                                                           

4. The Athlete
The Osprey Vector 22" ($169; www.ospreypacks.com) borrows a simple yet clever concept from ski and surf bags: a separate section for dirty clothes and sneaks. The roller's stretchy front pocket and internal mesh compartments make item retrieval fast and easy.

5. The Free Spirit
Simple yet sophisticated, the two-and-a-half-pound (one-kilogram) Jansport All-Terra-24" Duffel Bag ($115; www.jansport.com) has a water-resistant lining and two zippered end pockets. Best feature: two well-padded backpack straps for comfy carrying.

Travel Tech

1. Palm-Top
Who needs a laptop? The Samsung Blackjack quad-band world phone ($325; www.samsungblackjack.com) delivers easy email access, seamless synchronization with Microsoft Office, and Cingular's superfast 3G data network. Its camera (still and video) and MP3 player seal the deal: Productivity-wise, you can't get smaller or better.

2. Peacemakers
Tuning out fellow passengers gets a lot less cumbersome with the 5.6-ounce (159-gram) Bose QuietComfort 3 Acoustic Noise Cancelling Headphones ($349; www.bose.com), which are nearly half the size of their silencing predecessors.

3. Entertainer
The 4.2-ounce (119-gram)  Nokia N95 world phone ($749; www.nokia.com) relieves even the shortest attention span with one device. In your hand: a five-megapixel camera, quality video recorder, MP3 player, and GPS unit. Email software is basic, but phone reception is excellent and Wi-Fi Internet access speedy.

4. E-Library
Leave the bulky paperbacks at home. The leather-covered Sony Portable Reader System-500 ($349; www.sony.com) stores up to 80 e-books in a wonderfully tactile nine-ounce, seven-by-five-inch (18-by-13-centimeter) pad. While the screen could be a little brighter, the text is sharp and easy to read.

5. Small Screen
The 30GB Archos 404 Camcorder ($350; www.archos.com) makes an OK video cam (YouTube quality), but an exceptional portable video player. Fractionally bigger than a deck of cards, it holds up to 40 MPEG-4 movies, which play smoothly on the three-and-a-half-inch (nine-centimeter) screen.
