I liked the looks of it until I realized that the back pack straps attach to the front of the bag. Carrying this means having the plastic handles against your back. Access to most of the pockets is through the back pack straps and the compression straps, so it's not very handy. I think I'd buy it if the flat side of the bag was against my back when carrying it as a backpack. I like the pockets for both laptop and tablet.
