The international one is almost identical (well, except for the price) to the Office Depot one I picked up. Remind me to show you next time I see you. Of course, for as long as you’ve had your current one, putting money into the higher brand at the beginning might be the better choice.

Thanks, Jennifer. I think it’s going to be a useful addition to my toolkit. Let me know how it works for you if you try it out.

My Pocket Briefcase is similar to this one: http://www.levenger.com/PAGETEMPLATES/PRODUCT/Product.asp?Params=Category=16-901|Level=2-3|pageid=5518|Link=Txt
but mine has a couple of additional interior pockets. There are two little pockets for business cards, and a total of three sections for extra 3 x 5 cards. The divisions make it easy to maintain some order in the cards as they’re being used, and the business card pockets make this all I really need if I’m walking around at an industry conference.

If they don’t start making mine again, I’ll probably have to go for one of the International Pocket Briefcase versions like this one:

when mine finally wears out.

NOTE: The links in both Jordan’s comment and mine seem a bit flaky. To see what we’re talking about, go to http://www.levenger.com, click on 3×5 cards, then on Pocket Briefcases. If I figure out the link problem, I’ll let everyone know.

Wow, that ZuluPad is neat. Thanks!

I’ve joined you in your 3×5 revolution (devolution?), using the back of a moleskine with index cards under the elastic band, and until I just discovered a holder that exactly meets my needs:

Cheap, holds IDs, cash and index cards. Only downside is that getting cards into the writing area is a little tedious. I expect that to loosen up over time though.

Out of curiosity, what’s the difference between your levinger and this one? http://www.levenger.com/PAGETEMPLATES/PRODUCT/Product.asp?Params=Category=16-901|Level=2-3|pageid=2398|Link=Img
