I'm very impressed by this product (PacSafe MetroSafe 100):

It's a perfect fit for the 7" Galaxy Tab. Note that this bag's primary purpose is NOT to hold my Galaxy Tab ! First and foremost, it securely carries my credit cards, ID papers, driving license, cash purse, business cards, pen + notepad, headphones, bits n bobs (lots of them), etc.
Despite being steel-reinforced in places, the bag is very lightweight. The materials ooze quality, and the design is sleek, discrete. The bag provides excellent protection in pick-pocket-prone areas.
The compartments inside don't waste valuable storage space (and they help keeping things tidy, readily-available). I like the hole for the headphones (to listen to music or answer a call whilst the mobile device is securely locked in the bag).
I love the detachable strap with its quick-release secure twist-lock (it can be used as shoulder or hip strap). I love the zip locks, which make it much harder, even for skilled pick-pockets, to reach inside the bag when standing in a queue or a crowded street.
UPDATE:
The device fits nicely inside the main compartment, with no strain on the zip (which is curved at the top, as you can see from the pictures). The Galaxy Tab doesn't fit in the main inner "pocket", as it sticks-out by a few millimeters too high (I use this pocket for my passport and other paperwork). There is nothing inside the bag that is likely to scratch the device, so I just slide the Galaxy Tab straight into the main pocket. Works well for me.
I don't leave the silicon skin on the Tab, not because of the extra padding (which is minimal) but because of the added friction (silicon is "sticky"), which makes it *really* hard to push the device into the bag. My leather "book-like" cover also fits inside the bag, but it wastes valuable room inside it, so I don't carry the cover when I'm truly "on the move" --> i.e. I carry both the leather cover and the silicon skin separately on my trips, and use them in situations where they are useful (e.g. the leather magnetic folio acts as a landscape stand, the silicon material is most useful as an anti-slip agent).
