How thick is the Monroe wallet, both with and without the ID insert? How many pockets does it have not counting the insert? I like to have thin wallets, so I wanted to see how it works without the insert...

I'm not quite clear on how the Slider and 2way accessories differ. It appears one has a side closure and the other, top. It looks like one is a hair smaller, and the 2way seems to have an additional zippered compartment, but the intended/suggested uses in the descriptions appear to be almost identical.

Example: Which (if either) would be good for a passport? Or a digital camera?

I am currently trying to decide what size laptop messenger I should get. The bag is going to serve a few different purposes, a day trip bag, overnight trip bag, school bag, a bag that I can take to work with a change of clothes (I work in a daycare...sometimes we get messy) and a bag to take to my internship.

So basically can the bag hold a change of clothes or two, a laptop (macbook, hopefully becoming a macbook pro soon) and other odds and ends plus toiletries (hair brush, shampoo, etc), or 2 text books, 2 notebooks and a laptop, and other odds and ends you always need? Basically I am trying to find a bag that will fit everything I need but not be too big for when I am only carrying a few things.

Also, do the grab handle and shoulder pad thing matter that much?
