I write for AppAdvice and I'm carrying around my iPad 2 a lot more than I used too. I was wondering if anyone has any decent suggestions for shoulder bags. Something where I can carry the thing around hands free.

iPad 2 Shoulder Bags / Satchels

I just picked up one of these:
(nice, I need 10 posts to show you the link. Google "targus citygear 10.2 netbook case" and you should get a good hit.)
It's for a 10" netbook but it holds the iPad and the Apple Bluetooth Keyboard perfectly! The iPad goes into the padded area where the netbook would normally sit. Plus, it has a couple of storage areas inside for the charger and any adapters you might need to carry.

I use an M-51 Engineering Bag that I picked up off of Amazon. It's small enough to not be awkward and obtrusive, but has plenty of pockets and storage for a lot of different stuff.
Here it is with the iPad on top front to give you an idea of size.
With the front flap open, you can see a lot of the little pockets that are available for pens, notepads, and other stuff. The flap has a clear plastic pocket for maps and other stuff you may need quick access to.
A quick look inside the main pocket. Plenty of room for the iPad and some notebooks. There's piece of plastic lining the back and separating the front main pocket from the rear pocket and maintaining shape when the bag isn't full.
The back zips open for access to more storage pockets for miscellaneous stuff.
It's a great bag that I've had for a couple years now and has held up to some abuse. Before the iPad, I used it to carry a netbook, and it did the job just fine. If I had to do it all over again, I'd go with a black or khaki color over the olive drab, but that's a small quibble really.

I've used the Tom Bihn Ristretto for iPad since the original iPad launch. Works great with my iPad 2 and accessories.
