So, if you decide to go for an iPad or the Kindle DX (9.7” screen), it might not fit that well in a regular purse. But maybe you don’t want to haul a giant tote bag. If you’re a guy, you might want to have something to put your iPad in when you’re not carrying a briefcase.

The bomber bag pictured at left is from Levengers. They’ve got a whole page of what they call iPad-friendly bags. Many of them are larger messenger-style bags, but they have a few small ones too. I wish they made this bag in black leather though. It looks perfect for carrying an e-reader, a wallet, a phone, and a few other essentials.

Another likely candidate is this Fossil City Bag. It comes in three colors, including black, and is definitely gender-neutral, maybe even masculine. Still, how often are you hauling your e-reader to cocktail parties?
