I sold my fatboy a few months back. I'll be entering the professional job market soon and the fatboy is just too military. I needed to find something that wouldn't look out of place in an office.
I had trouble finding anything that I really liked but I finally settled on a mini-messanger bag produced by a company called Briggs and Riley. I paid more than I wanted but I'm very happy with what I got.
Here's a link to the rest of the pictures (full size available too).

The main body of the Baseline Map bag is 10 inches high and 11 inches wide. It has a large flap with a magnetic closure. I placed a magazine next to the bag to give an approximation of the size. The majority of the bags I found during my search were full sized messenger bags while this bag would probably be classified as a mini-messenger. The strap seems to be plenty long. I have it extended to to maximum and the top of the bag is even with my waist.
The back of the bag has a large pocket held closed with a small piece of vel-cro. The pocket is about 8 inches deep.
The front flap conceals a large pocket on the front of the bag. This large pocket is designed to hold your small items. It has 2 slots for credit cards, 2 slots for pens/pencils, 1 pocket for medium sized items. I have a leatherman and a flashlight in mine. This pocket is probably meant to hold a PDA or a cell phone. It has a fuzzy lining to protect your tech devices.
This pictures are a bit harder to make out. The large central pocket has 1 zippered pocket and 2 non-zippered pockets. The zippered pocket is 11 inches wide and 7 inches tall. The large pocket is a thick plastic mesh. The non-zippered pockets are about 5 inches wide and 5 inches deep. The main pocket also has a key fob to keep your keys in place.
On the right side of the front flap there is a small vertical zippered pocket. This pocket has a very soft lining and appears to be designed to hold a pair of sunglasses. The pocket is 5 inches tall and 3 inches deep.
