I don't think it is broadly available yet. I called my favorite luggage retailer a couple of weeks ago and they told me it wasn't even available for them to preorder.

Looks like a cool -- and very practical bag.

I'm not crazy of the plastic hardware Eagle Creek has moved to on some of their latest bags (not sure about this one) but think their designs are among the best, especially for casual, rugged travel. I want to like the Aeronaut but can't get over the design. I'm a flat packer (not a roller) and don't think I'd like the ~15 inch wide main compartment. With a ~20 - 22 inch bag I can just lay down a pair of pants off a hanger; not possible with the Aeronaut.
