Summary: Great for airport travel 2009-01-07
Comment: This backpack is a sturdy workhorse that is fantastic for air travel. It has many pockets and zipped areas, making it easy to keep track of various items, especially those that need to come out for security screening, such as a laptop or 3 oz. and fewer liquids. The only thing I wish it had was a water bottle holder, as well as a sleeve that completely detached from the inner backpack for the laptop. I carried this bag full of items (a DSLR camera, laptop, snacks, etc. through several airports while toting a toddler along with me and my back survived the trek without pain. I highly recommend this item for purchase.
I will note that my laptop is a smaller, 12" laptop, so I had no issues with it fitting in the sleeve.

Summary: Worst Buyer Experience - Never Received Package 2008-12-16
Comment: This is the first time, in many years as an Amazon customer, that I've had trouble with receiving a package.
-First problem: I used standard shipping by USPS, which is the worst delivery experience I've ever encountered. I'm guessing the package is too big to be left in a standard apartment-sized mailbox. And for some reason USPS didn't leave the package at the drop-off office (where most over-sized packages go), even though no signature is required. Why couldn't they just leave it at my doorstep? I don't know. Instead I get a lame "Sorry we missed you slip," with the date Jan. 1st, before they are suppose to return the package. Supposedly I have 12-days left, according to the "We missed you slip," but that's a lie. I've just called USPS and "the package is currently being returned to the sender." With other postal carriers, like Fed-Ex or UPS, they attempt to leave the package in a safe place for pick-up, or retry the next day with notice beforehand. USPS just gave up on the first try, and use incompetent methods for redelivery. I've never been so disappointed in a postal delivery service.
-Second problem: I can't find a way to contact the sender for reshipment or feedback. Will I ever get my money back? Who knows! I'm kind of glad this backpack was on a good discount, but if it wasn't, I'd probably go Costanza on this situation.
-Third problem: The whole reason I put myself through this whole ordeal is to purchase something durable enough to protect a newly purchased laptop. I just bought this laptop, and it would be nice to keep it from getting banged up by the city life. So far, I've been using a protective sleeve which is good enough to absorb bumps while walking. But if I ever were to accidentally drop the book bag it was being carried in, I'd hate to imagine. I've seen other students with Swiss Backpacks, so I can tell they're pretty durable in comparison. But will I ever get to know this firsthand? Probably not, oh well.
Overall: I wish I could have had the experience of using this backpack, but that may never happen. I don't know if I'll try a re-buy (the prices aren't that bad). If there is a next time, I'll just use Fed-Ex and pay the extra $17s.

Summary: A really, really great bag 2008-12-08
Comment: Cons - does not have a water bottle pocket on the side.
Pros - everything else. Lots of pockets to organize stuff. It can hold far more that I imagined, but still be easy on the back/shoulders. Looks terrific, understated.
I was afraid to buy a bag without actually seeing it, but after reading reviews I decided to take a chance. I'm so glad I did.

Summary: Quality Product 2008-12-04
Comment: This is a very nice, well designed book bag. The main Laptop compartment is very well padded and it has a strap on the inside to keep the laptop securely in place. The middle compartment has two dividers inside of it to help organize your things. The front pocket doesn't really have enough space to store anything major, but the Cell phone pocket is very convenient.
The picture is somewhat misleading to me. I thought it would be a lot wider than it is. Tye size is not too large, big enough for any student. It has enough pockets to store loads of extra things, especially small, easy-to-lose things.
The outside is very durable. I would bet you could take a knife to it and it wouldn't rip.(Not a guarantee, just speculation). All in all, a very dependable, sturdy, stylish back pack.
