    Hope you don't need the Co-pilot right away, looks like they're on back-order.

    I've decided on the Daylight briefcase I think, but it looks like their website is down so maybe they're updating their DB??? maybe the large cafes are back?!?!?

    Nope, website is back up and still out of stock.

    I'll PM you my decision, sorry for taking this long, I'm terrible at deciding things. I also have problems ordering meals in restaurants.

    Thread has inspired me to prune the collection. I have five backpacks in a box ready for donation.

    Did you get the L.L. Bean in HK? Their Quickload Travel Pack looks quite good as a cheaper alternative to the A45 but quality is not as good.

    I'm back and just replied to your message. I'll be ordering next Tue-Wed if anyone else wants to piggyback on our order.

    The L.L. Bean backpack was a freebie from my wife's former company here in the 'States. LL Bean has one of the best guarantees in the business.
