I am a sucker for organization, or the promise that the next backpack will make me organized. Does this have pockets for all my (un)organized travel cables?
@VeeDubTDI Nah, they said it that way because so many istuff users don't know they have a smart phone or tablet. So, they have to say iPad or tablet, iPhone or smart phone.
for as much as I hate 85% of the stuff you people sell, I have this bizarre fascination with checking your site every day and paying $5/mo for the privilege.
I was one of the 99 people who bought one the last time Meh sold Solo backpacks (BTW those were $15). I've been using it for work every day and have no complaints.
Tempted to get one of these even though I don't need it, but my wife literally just saw me looking at the page and declared "you don't need any more backpacks."
@The_Tim I got one last time on a whim, and gave it away to a friend who was paying through town and needed to carry a 17" laptop - I don't think I'll push my luck again
@The_Tim Don't let her tell you what you do and don't need! Does she continue to buy shoes when she already has more than one pair? You know she does! Stand up for yourself and order that backpack!
I'm doing some Android development these days, so I have several tablets. I can't use this backpack. It only has one tablet compartment.
These specialized compartments remind me of the specialized silverware of a century ago. Don't embarrass yourself by using your olive fork to pick up a pickle.
@hamjudo So you'd prefer if it had ZERO tablet pockets? The kind of backpack you need is hard to find for a reason, frequently carrying multiple tablets at once isn't exactly a common problem.
@HotelDon The backpack I'm using now has lots of pockets. But it is of an older design, so none of them are labeled as "tablet pockets". I put the tablets in whichever compartment(s) are handy. Modern tablets are rather robust. They don't need coddling. Any pocket that's big enough and doesn't have scratchy things in it, will do.
I bought one. Hoping that its adequately sized to use as a lunch box/normal backpack. I'm starting a new job soon that's close enough to bike to, so my normal lunch box won't work well those days.
When I was throwing some Maxwell House coffee grounds yesterday at vicious cafe hipsters during an exorcism I thought I saw one of the unholy java abominations wearing this backpack. Just to be safe I’m voting meh...
On a scale of 1 - 10 my excitement level on this offer is .001......maybe. Let's get something going Meh..... We need some WoW stuff . Meh. Back to sleep.
I need a new backpack. not a laptop/tablet carrier, just a plain small backpack to replace one where the zippers have crapped out. this one might be too dorky. on the other hand, for this price all I could buy elsewhere is a fanny pack.

@podosenov email halp@meh.com and explain your problem or click on support. Hopefully if you mail before midnight EST they will honor your attempt to buy.
Am I the only one who feels the outer design of this backpack looks very very ridiculous and outdated? I'm just asking to calibrate my aesthetic standards if necessary.

@hchavers Yes it does, nerd.
@hchavers It is a pack-rat's dream. Second to last image reveals some of that.
They specified interior pocket for iPad or tablet. The wording makes it sound like the iPad is not a tablet.
@cengland0 can be used to carry feminine hygiene products too
@cengland0 They said "iTablet" which is quite hilarious. Makes me think, "Meh"...
@cengland0 That's "iPad or inferior tablet," thank you very much.
@VeeDubTDI Nah, they said it that way because so many istuff users don't know they have a smart phone or tablet. So, they have to say iPad or tablet, iPhone or smart phone.
My most interesting order label so far: encouraging-rejoicing-parent. We'll see if I still feel that way when it arrives!

@The_Tim wow, I would never think a wife would say somthing like that
Tablet ✓, now will you sell a decent laptop so I can put this to proper use?
@GlockComa Would this suffice? http://www.cec.uchile.cl/~wsc6/lof/briefcasepc.gif" />
@GlockComa
@kylewood Damn, that's so sexy...I miss my acoustic-coupled 110-baud modem.
I like it but I have enough backpacks so I won't buy or click meh. Therefore, I say ...
Hem.

Perfect! Now someone can steal your Laptop AND Tablet at the same time. Meh!

@zacatac - Even though they said the Jet-Pack is not included, maybe you can download the app on your own.
@zacatac That is why you needed the Attack Robots.

On a scale of 1 - 10 my excitement level on this offer is .001......maybe. Let's get something going Meh.....
We need some WoW stuff . Meh. Back to sleep.
@1wally1 Maybe WOW would be a Speaker-Dock-Backpack???
Meh. My laptop is 19".
@PocketBrain That is not a laptop. That is a city block.
@PocketBrain 19" and 22" versions Goodwill store price check: $3.50 and 5$
I need a new backpack. not a laptop/tablet carrier, just a plain small backpack to replace one where the zippers have crapped out. this one might be too dorky.

@ekw Is it a name-brand backpack? If so, they may replace the zippers for free. I have a Jansport backpack that's on it's third set of zippers.
@SSteve I doubt it. it was some freebie I got from sending in yogurt proof of purchases & supporting US ski team.
No pagination. . . for that alone, meh.
@SirLouie That is sad.
That dude flying sure is cool
@MEHcus Why on Earth would you think that?
@MEHcus Flipflops and jetpacks are the new socks with sandals.
@MEHcus I want a jetpack that will not burn my buns.
@kylewood
Meh...

@podosenov if it's an apartment did you try putting the unit number first? It seems to work for some here

@Ignorant I did try that. Also tried replacing Apt. with # sign. Neither works

Been following meh for months, and finally I've joined the league of extraordinarily mediocre gentlepeople. You're all very meh.

It's pretty ugly. A box with non-ergonomic straps tacked on.
