Also, if you're looking for an ultralight sleeping bag, Lafuma has some good ones that are quite cheap & lightweight - here's one that's less than a 1.5 lbs - http://www.backpacker.com/gear/sleep...-sleeping-bag/
May be hard to find since they discontinued the 600 model, but it's a great lightweight bag.

I did SJPP to Santiago April - May.
Glad the Stratos made your list, but make sure you try on a bunch of packs. Also, check out the Camino packing videos on YouTube and go light!

Meg,
I hope you post what you actually did. I always like to hear the end of a story.
It might be too late, but I just stumbled upon this article on how to choose a pack. Lots of good info.
