I think our very wise moriond asked him to add that one.

Great review! I especially liked the rationale that "you just have to buy it because one of the color choices is Aubergine."

Cool! I did wonder whether we would crash the website!! Hope Tom Bihners feel the love.

I had this worry too!

Everyone - it looks like for the 5 new TB bag unveilings, we broke a record for people on the TB website. From the stats at the bottom of the forum page:

Most users ever online was 14,476, 07-01-2014 at 08:16 PM.

It's like the line-ups at the Apple Store when new iPhones come out - except virtual!

Cheers!

I read most of this thread already knowing the happy ending--I didn't have internet access for the 24 hours surrounding the releases--but I've enjoyed its excitement, humor, and camaraderie so much. I really like the way eWalker's clocks punctuate the excitement, drawing the reader's awareness back to the passage of time and the increasing suspense. I was sorry to miss the fun of the anticipation, but I think the instant gratification of reading this all in one sitting makes up for it nicely!

It´s was fun indeed!! I was doing my medical check up while making the countdown, if the hospital had a psychiatric division, I would get myself in trouble!!

Starting up the 24 hour countdown clock

I have to admit, I am salivating a little at that Daylight Backpack! I can totally see using that for knitting! And for day trips where I don't want to have a heavy load. My back is not a happy camper at all these days. Can I have a Synapse 19 and the new pack at the same time? Will I always be torn over which one to carry? Oh! First world problems!

I have an S19 too, but got the Daylight for the heck of it. I liked the PCBP-ish design coupled with slight tapering at the top. (It looks kinda retro, especially in orange) I also felt it would be a nice change on days where I want to dunk everything in a light sack. Aaand, unlike most day packs, this has a /usefully/ large front pocket. (Cf Eastpak.)

But I may just be justifying my purchase to myself *coughs*

Are you the first confirmed order on the new gear, then? How exciting to look at these new bags and videos!

I don't know. If I am, do I get a prize? Can't wait to get it. Also got the divider. Very cool bag.
