To give you some perspective, I just checked and my DXG is a mere 30 gm heavier than the October issue of "Better Homes and Gardens", and is quite a bit thinner, and a tad narrower side-to-side. I found a purse that accomodates it fairly easily, a briefcase, backpack, or messenger bag would be no prob. I'm not a train or bus commuter so I can't speak to specifics there, but if you would be comfortable taking along a thickish magazine on such excursions, I wouldn't expect any problems with the DX (less since you don't have to open it out, doubling its size as you read). It is rigid, of course, so if you would stow such a mag by folding it you would be in trouble!
