The Perfect New Daypack is a Recycled One!, February 9, 2009
I love everything about this pack: the padded back and straps, the balanced feel, and the organization of the interior. The design is attractive (I got the "Panda" color) and the fabric is really nice - hard to believe it's made from recycled materials. I especially like having 2 side mesh pockets, as I like to vacation in warmer locales, and lots of water bottles are a must for me.
I'm using it for bike trips to the library, day hikes and travel. I was looking at this one and also one by The North Face The North Face Recon Kingfisher Blue Backpack and tried on both at a store in Seattle. I then went home and bought it on Amazon for a better price plus free shipping! I know I'll be making use of that little mp3 pocket whilst waiting in lines at airports. All in all, a very nice pack.

Its only the first day, but I'm so excited!, January 13, 2010
After the first day of use: I love the color (rainforest). My frame is small (5'4, 125), and it fits pretty well. not too long for my torso, but I could see if you were tall, that it may be too short.
Things to know:
*Those dual front pockets? They're stacked on top of each other (as in front to back), so they're huge, and handy, but I can see issues with packing if you fill them with non-flat items. One has organizer pocket inside.
*There is a waist belt, though it isn't padded or anything. It is unobtrusive when not in use. It sits sort of high on the waist, not where I'd wear a traditional hipbelt, but it is better than nothing.
*The pencil/pen organizer pockets are on the large pocket, which seems weird to me, but it was handy today in class, because i was already in the large pocket to get my notebook. The pocket there is also large enough to hold a medium-small external mouse. Handy.
*The Electronics pocket is really small for a phone. I mean, like maybe one of those old Nokias? maybe.... My iPhone certainly won't fit, and neither will your blackberry or android, or probably even your flip phone... it is handy for a t-pass, or school id, or other card-sized items. Also, maybe a iPod Nano.
*The "frame" of the backpack (the back has a plastic sheet enclosed in light padding) seems flimsy, but I think that it'll be okay in the long run, I'll let you know.
*The laptop pocket is not padded. I keep mine in a neoprene case anyway, and i like it better this way, but if you don't keep the case, this may be a concern. Like, no padding on the front, and only the aforementioned flimsy plastic/foam padding on the back.
*The headphone access is not situated anywhere close to a pocket in which you could safely put your iPod. Now, I never liked that style of wiring my commute anyway, but it may be a concern for others.
I'll add more as I wear this. So far, I recommend it, but again, today was the first day!

Quality just not there, March 16, 2010
I sent this product back. First, it was orange, not red. Second, the quality of the material was not what I would have expected from Osprey.
