Admire it so far!

Pros: Our internet connections seem to be much better with this than with the DIR 601. I didn't think that a router could be slowing down our streaming video, etc. But our online experience is more stable and trouble free with this old stand-by than the newer product.
Cons: I can't think of any yet.
Overall Review: I wondered about doing the fancy firmware, but may hold off on it, this thing works very well now.
A real trooper! Very durable, protects contents well

Pros: There is an innovative pivoting maneuver that one can do to access the main cargo area related to DSL body and lens. Keep one strap on your shoulder, and pivot the pack around next to you, and you can open the pouch selectively wide to get your camera out. The storage niches, laptop pouch, everything is very well done. I have had this for a bit over five years, and been to many many places with it. It still looks great without any fussing from me.
Cons: The top of the pyramid, if you will, is not a structured storage area. It would be hard to do, but that is the only con. I tend to pile things up in here, and haven't figured out a good strategy for it.
Overall Review: You bet I would buy it again.
Very handy item to have

Pros: I like that it is not more bulky than this, and the flexibility that it gives me. It gives me a solid two recharges on a Galaxy S5. Battery is not totally dead yet, but this is a yardstick figure for someone.
Cons: I suppose I would want it to be smaller if I was more of a hiker, cyclist, etc. But I know that it needs to have some guts to do its job.
Overall Review: I would buy it again.
Good Product

Pros: Versatility: You can just carry around the cable if you'll only need to access notebook drives, or you can carry both the cable and PS to access all drives. LED is under translucent black plastic between the 2.5 and 3.5" plug areas. I thought that having a housing like those found in a portable USB (laptop drive) would be nice, but when I got this, it proved to be far more handy and useful.
Cons: Possibly that PS is large, but if you need to access 3.5" drives, you'll need it. I have no gripes with this product.
