Dr. Helen,
I guess my solution is a “man bag” of sorts. You see, I need to carry my laptop around, so I have a canvas timbuk2 laptop bag that is worn as a bike messenger would. I stuff it full of crap on some days: macbook, ipod, phone, wallet, keys, papers, writing implements, aspirin, nalgene water bottle. It’s (probably from a woman’s point of view) ugly as hell and can be heavy when the water bottle is in it.
Strapped across my body, velcroed and latched shut, on the streets of New York City, I never feel that someone will surreptitiously pilfer anything from it.
