Just a heads up. I found a nice wheeled duffel at a decent price considering the quality and features. Jansport 30" Cargo Hold Wheeled Duffel:

I just received the bag and it looks quite sturdy and well made. Heavy duty cordura fabric, very heavy material at the ends, very large wheels, compression straps both inside and out and lots of handles. The bottom 1/3 of the bag is "semi-soft" and should hold it's shape well while protecting the contents.
The "Kickstand" feature is nifty, but the "kickstand" material is quite flexy so I'll have to wait and see how it works in real use. My guess is that with the bag full, it'll work fine - half full, maybe.
The wheels have bearings which would be good for general luggage, but may not be such a good idea if the bag will see lots of sand and salt water. I also don't know how Jansport would view the use of the bag for dive gear warrany wise.
Anyway, time will tell how it holds up and if it really *was* a good price
