I believe there is an O ring in each end compartment and at least one in the main compartment. I know there is also one in the mesh pocket at the top of the main compartment interior. That is where...

The cache for the iPad mini seems to also be a fairly close fit. I was just looking at some small pouches I have (7" x 5") since the stated measurements are 6.7" by 4.6". The Kindle Paperwhite...

I love solar too. My original bag, a Steel/Solar Tri-Star was only used once, because it wasn't quite big enough if I added running shoes. I will probably be putting that up for sale at some point....

Just for comparison, I have a padded medium pouch, and my paperwhite takes up roughly 75% of the pouch.3497

Looking forward to checking this out. Thanks for the notice, even though I missed the free day.

I agree. The packing cube backpack is plenty strong to hold a laptop and some other things, it would benefit from the padding of a cache to provide padding. It's actually easier to wear it when it...

Most of these trips are work...

Congratulations and welcome!
I have the Aeronaut also. I have using it about a year after using the Sky Train for a couple of years. Both are very good bags, but the Aeronaut is a good deal...

My box with two stuff sacks (steel and wasabi), a (wasabi) clear quarter packing cube, and black side effect are waiting for me at home. Very excited!

Tri Star only for two weeks is impressive. I'm happy when I have a little room in my Aeronaut. Both bags are great, and I would just love to get one in the 400d Dyneema.

Earlier this month I flew to San Diego and left my iPad in my Aeronaut and had no problems. Omaha and San Diego were the two airports I cleared security.

2066The long awaited Aeronaut is finally here!

Patiently waiting for my new Steel/Ultraviolet Aeronaut and solar travel tray. OK, maybe I'm not so patient, but they are supposed to arrive tomorrow and I have the day off! I also ordered a screen...

Yes, the FOJ pouch looks great. Also happy with the other pouches including the passport pouch.

What a great combination!

What? We have to wait until next Tuesday to find out color #6? That's cruel! I guess patience is a virtue.

There's a good picture of the o-ring on adamki's post under the Tri-Star thread, yesterday, 3:56 CDT.

The O ring in the packing cube backpack (tri-star) is inside the main backpack compartment at the center top.

Most of my travel is within the US, but I take a Blackberry for work and an HTC Incredible as my personal phone on all work trips. I would think taking two phones is pretty common, with all the...

Congratulations! Handsome young boys.

A couple of my favorite driving albums (can we still say albums?) are Miles Davis - Kind of Blue, and Pat Metheny - American Garage.

For new music, Grace Potter and the Nocturnals and Florence and...

I think the real intent is to raise revenue by fees of all types. Even the Western Flyer will not meet those dimensions.

Thanks for the information on the data plans. I agree that the AT&T international plans are exorbitant. The Verizon ipad is not compatible on the European network the way I understand it (CDMA vs....

A couple more ipad questions, since we're on the topic.

1) Have you been able to use a regular flash/usb drive with the camera connection kit? I am unable to do this on my original ipad. I am...

I just made my first trip with a Tri-Star last month. It was a Tuesday to Friday business trip and performed well. I have a very heavy ~9 lbs. work laptop, but I don't suppose I can blame that on...
