seems like the Pro Backpack is shipping. I read on another forum that a guy had received his. He posted a few shots and it looks good. He also noted that it can take the E-3 with Grip attached.

My free backpack arrived today by DHL. I have not had time to examine it properly but it looks great
Mine arrived today. The Apple fits nice and snug but the problem i have is one has to go, my Crumpler or Olympus.
Because I missed out on the Olympus Bag, I've been considering a Crumpler for my E3 + bits. The XXXL 'Pretty Boy' looks big enough, but I've got reservations about carrying a bag bearing the name!
Do you think the Crumpler XXXL PB would take an E3, 35mm Zuiko, 70-300mm Zuiko, Sigma 105mm Macro plus odds and ends?
Mine arrived today, massive bag will need a gym membership to go with it if I ever fill it. It certainly looks well made on initial Inspection. Being what people would call vertically challenged I could also use it to sleep in if I decided to take up camping.

I've got the Shrinkle and it will take those items and notebook. It seems to be made from very strong material when compared to the Oly bag but then its not so user friendly.
Got mine t'other day. Looks OK, lots of room.
I have been using the Lowpro slingshot 300 but it is a bit awkward. I picked up a camera bag and OM 2 at the camera club last week for a song and the bag is brill. An old fashioned shoulder bag. Looks like a Billingham but isn't, I used it on Friday and may just use it permanent.
I wanted the oly bag 'cos of laptop space but as I won an Vosonic hard drive from Digital Depot I won't be needing the laptop when I go away. I certainly don't need to carry one around in my camera bag.
So I may just offer the oly bag on here.
Cheers, Dave.
I have one of the Olympus E-System Back Packs that is surplus to my requirements.
If anyone who isn't in line for one or whom missed the deadline, but would really like one send me a PM and we can see if we can come to an agreement Otherwise it looks like a visit to eBay
That's neat about the backpack, it looks pretty nice.
I have been watching with rapt amazement at the incentives for buying almost anywhere outside of the US - with backpacks, grips and more .... I wonder if demographically there weren't enough users in various countries that Oly had to put out more perks (the hld-4 is a very nice incentive - I will have to buy one) than in the US of A .... I haven't looked at the Oly backpack close enough to know, but was looking at the 360 by ThinkTank as my step up form the Lowe 200 ... I love the flip around feature but I also like the fact that the 360 (not sure its official name) has the ability to hold my pod, water, etc. which to me is crucial when hiking ..
