    MOBILE EDGE Urban Camo/Orange 17'' SecurePack Backpack

    this backpack is cool!
    it comes in different colors, (if u don't like camo)
    it has no openings on the outer side of the backpack. the only way for you to open the bag is when you take the bag off ur back cause it opens in the other direction. so its like a reverse of a regular backpack. now no one can jack your stuff by opening your bag. because they cant. unless you put ur bag down or don't wear it.

    I've been looking around and the cheapest price is at Newegg.
    at their original site "MOBILE EDGE" its i think $80
    but at Newegg its $54
    http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16834997074
    but too bad though just a few days ago they had some in stock!
    i was going to get one at FRYS ELECTRONICS but it was $80 bucks!
    and when i saw it at newegg i was going to buy it but its out of stock!
    :(

    Thats a cool design. MOBILE EDGE makes some great backpacks. I got the MOBILE EDGE Black 17'' Alienware Backpack from newegg for $68.99 compared to $99.99 from mobile edge or alienware.

    Interesting concept. To ease that paranoia that the guy standing in line behind you is opening your pockets and taking your loose change :).
