    Hey guys, I just joined up on this forum after quietly watching and reading it for a few days. This is also the first forum ive ever really joined. I recently ordered an alienware m17x for highschool (My first laptop/not terrible computer :D ) and was going through this forum to distract myself while i awaited its arrival. Recently my accessories arrived (A mouse, cooling pad, router, anit-glare screen protector, Messenger bag.)

    I have a slight problem with the m17x Orion Messenger bag i ordered off dell when i order the laptop.There was an rf sheilded pocket for cell phones advertised, however, ive seen reviews for this bag and the rf sheild in those reviews looked nothing like the one in my bag. And mine doesnt even work :( . I put my cell and called it and it didnt block the call.

    The interior is completely different from what was advertised and is on review videos on youtube. I've searched for the features advertised on the dell site where i bought it, and on the little card that came on the bag and they both say the rf sheild is there but maybe im using it wrong or just cant see it? Ill post pix in a bit. I'm really confused :confused: cuz i cant find any one else with the model of this bag i have.

    I just want to know if anyone can explain this to me or has noticed this too.
    Not having the rf sheild is nbd and nothing worth returning it over but maybe im just doing it wrong or something. I just hoped someone could explain.
    Good version:
    Alienware Orion M17x Laptop Messenger Bag, TSA Approved / Compliant, Checkpoint Friendly | Mobile Edge (with pix)

    Dell version which pretty much just copied and pasted the same specs from the good version except they send out a different product:
    ALIENWARE Alienware Orion M17x Messenger Bag - TSA Friendly : Gaming: Console | Dell

    Pretty good video showing what is supposed to be like:
    alienware messenger bag - YouTube

    And ill put up pics of what i got soon THX for the help :)
