I think the larger 227 size would be better as an everyday bag to carry all your things.

Hmmm... definitely not 226, 227 maybe depending on the size of your stuff. Ipod video, is it with leather cover? and you are talking about a flat comb, not a brush huh?

Most likely a 227. I have a 226 and while I think this amount of stuff would fit given the new wider bottoms for s/s 08, it would be a VERY tight fit.

And I LOVE the Dark Silver in 227.

I have the dark silver 227, and all of what you mentioned would comfortably fit inside it! The wider base gives some added depth, and unless you have a really enormous, bulky wallet, you should be good to go. Obviously, the 228 would afford you even more room, but it being an options depends on if you like that size or not (personally, it's not a size I can pull off, and I much prefer the 226 and 227 sizes for my reissues). I have the 226 reissue, and I could also fit those items in (my iphone goes in the back pocket, and I carry a smaller wallet), but as mentioned above, it's a much tighter squeeze.

personally, i'd get the 228, but i can't stand small bags and all of my bags are the large or "oversized", but if thats not you, the 227 definitely fits all of your everyday needs. just to be sure though, you could check at your local chanel boutique/NM/Saks/whereever and try on/fit in all of your needs in the reissue to see which one holds everything and still feels comfortable to you. good luck
