Personally, I think it's probably even smaller than an MAM.
I had Glazed Black. The leather was wonderful. Just too darn small. I compared it to my Magnolia before I packed it up. The shape was identical just a little smaller on all sides.
I think it's the same size as a MAM in capacity but a slightly different shape. It's longer (or wider?) than a MAM but not as deep as a MAM. I will take pictures of the two side by side to show what I'm saying.
And someone had asked me about what you can fit inside (sorry for the delay!), basically I can fit everything that I put in my MAM comfortably with the same amount of space leftover. I carry a large wallet, large sun glass case, Cell phone, small make up bag, misc pouches, keys.. etc.
As for whether you can fit a lap top.. it would have to be a small one! Here are some pictures that I took while putting my iPad inside.. The iPad fits perfectly..
I'm personally a little shocked that some find it too small.. especially people who have been happy with the MAM. I find them to be nearly identical in size.. but that's just opinion.
I got the hunter satchel anyway...can't wait to get it!
The size reminds me of the totes that Coach makes for the outlets. The top zip style is the same and the size looks similar too. It is smaller than the MAM but not by a lot.
*ahem* I also got a dear tote. I'm a sucker for this glazed lamb leather!
