5. The Cadet, Tom Bihn, $170

How about a new computer bag? Look at the new downsized bags for carrying the new thin computers and iPads. The Cadet is a small, lightweight briefcase that has all of the features of its much larger bags. It’s designed to perfectly fit a MacBook Air or similar-sized PC, plus an iPad, magazines, power adapter, pens, notebooks and business cards. It has a clever computer sleeve that slides out of the bag on tracks, yet remains attached for going through airline security. It comes in two sizes, based on the 15/13-inch and 11-inch iPad.
