Yesterday I finally found a case bag, well its not technically a case bag, but it serves the purpose of one, even better than some I'd be willing to bet.
It is a Somsonite Portfolio/laptop bag.
It includes a seperate area where my R13 cases fits perfectly. This area also has straps to lock the case in. If you have a thin case, such as a Pochette, one your lucky, but two it will fit even better, and you could store music in the dividers where the case is held.
In the middle zipper, where a laptop is supposed to go, there is ample storage for music, and even a laptop if you so desire (be warned it can get heavy though).
The front pocket has several dividers to store all your accessories, like mouuthpieces, barrels (provided you give them a little extra protection), grease, oils, tools, polish cloth, reed tools, etc.
So far I'm pleased with it and how convenient it will be to be able to have everything with me in ONE place.
Oh, yea it only cost me $62.00 at OfficeMax.
So if your looking for a good bag, but don't want to spend your life savings on it, check out laptop bags. I suggest looking at many different things like this, for instance if you want a mouthpiece or barrel case you could get a thin profile handgun case with solid chunks of foam and cut the spaces out.
Here are some pictures of it to give you a better idea.
I didn't want to clutter up the BBoard with attachments and uploaded images so it'll take you to my Flickr account.

Funny the link worked when I checked it 10 minutes ago. The yahoo thing says its undergoing maintenance...???
I'll work on the my link problem
Never mind what I said here before if you looked. What I typed didn't show up because it thought there was actually a URL in it.
Just look in the Help/Rules section of the BBoard. It'll tell you exactly how to do it. Oh! wait. go here... :P

UPDATE:
I just fixed the link problem. I figured out Flickr so the images are much higher quality and the link should (key word "should") work.
