Boblbee Mentor backpack
02-Sep-2005
I've been using a new backpack for a few days and just had to
share. It's a Boblbee Mentor Expandable
Backpack in Silver Fish Grey Flake color.
What sets the Mentor apart from the pack is that it has a hard
shell front made of ABS plastic. The hard shell prevents the
contents from being crushed and makes the Mentor well suited to
protect a notebook computer.
The contoured hard shell also gives the backpack a sleek, slender
and futuristic look that garners quite a bit of attention from
others.
But as great as the exterior is, the interior is basically three large empty
compartments (one is reserved for a notebook). I don't want to throw my accessories
into a compartment where they'll be jostled around and possibly
suffer damage. So I also picked up a Datacom organizer that has
small pockets to store small gear like a mouse, surge protector,
cables, etc.
All in all, the Mentor is a great backpack. It holds a lot of
gear and it's very comfortable when it's fully strapped on. I don't
feel bogged down by the weight as its shape and hard shell keep the
contents higher up on my back instead of sagging down to my ass.
Pricy, but highly recommended.
