Lowepro Stealth Backpack

Any opinion on the Stealth Backpack? Cathay quote $280.

It's quite heavy, partly because it needs to take the weight of a Laptop + your camera gear.

For that $$$, u can buy 2 X Lowepro Rover light, which is more practical Just my $0.02

Thanks for the feedback. I went down to CP yesterday evening to view the backpack. It's kind of large but was something that I needed. Though they told me it was $280 when I called up earlier, the salesman quoted $243 when I got there. John 3:16 quoted me $240 but no stock. Tried bargaining but he didn't want to budge. In the end bought it for $242 (big deal). Anyway only $2 difference from John 3:16 quote.

Anyway about the backpack. Yes it is a bit heavy, but I have a trip coming up and I need to carry my laptop. So this pack is quite ideal for me - don't have to carry additional laptop case, since the backpack comes with a removable one. Another nice touch is the builtin poncho to offer some wet weather protection.
