Cute idea, but really what's the point if you can't charge a laptop?

So couldn't you just keep a power pack in your current bag? Am I missing something here?

So... I now have to charge my backpack to charge my phone/iPod/laptop/mini disc player?

So is it still messed up, or does nobody want this thing, either?

No water bottle compartment? I mean, I know water and electronics don't mix...but...it's a BACKPACK! =(

Wow, this seems like a really neat idea. I'm wondering, however, how much trouble you would have getting this past TSA security at an airport. Having this to keep your iPhone running for a long flight would be a real win.

Big ol' Cornucopia bag of charging

I think the site is falling apart. None of the other items have changed in the last 10 minutes either. Come on! I want to spend money I don't have on frivolous things I don't need!

Get one of these and just toss it in your existing backpack.http://www.amazon.com/10000mAh-Multi-voltage-External-Battery-Recorders/dp/B005NGKR54/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1353348431&sr=8-1&keywords=RAVPower+1000mah

It's a decent idea, but I think the price is too high for the many reasons we're trying to think up just to justify buying it.

Ordered one, said I was on a waiting list. Where's the Football??

This is great. Some days I -do- get a little tired during the day. Having a recharge battery available in a backpack would be a great thing. Of course, I'd have to wear a damn backpack around all the time.... hmmmm, maybe not.

Can you put anything else into this backpack?

It appears that a crap bag killed woot...

If it had solar recharge that might be really nice!

Or how about these...

OfficeMax has it for 49.99 with free shipping for $50 or over purchase. My son has it and uses it to keep his cellphone charged.

Costco has the 6000 mAH one on sale for fifteen dollars more.

How does he like it? Is it useful?

yet another Basket of Cranberries slows woot to a crawl

Does the Big ol' Cornucopia still work the same as before? I am a little confused with all the new sites. (Havent been on here for about 5 months) Last months Woot-Off I did not see a Big ol' Cornucopia at all? help please!

yep

Seems like taking the battery and charger out of the bag and carrying those around makes more sense. Why do I need a backpack for a charger? Seems like a solution to a problem that doesn't exist.

It appears that these are about as popular as a fart in a crowded elevator.

If there was one, I never saw it -- the last item went from 100% to 0, and then this backpack came on immediately thereafter.

Sadly, someone is going to have to buy this thing to progress the woot off. Those are the rules of the woot off. As the AMAZING theme song states.

where are these things being listed? on their facebook page or something?

Wow, no one is buying this ridiculous bag.

It's not lack of consumers. Woot is broken. All Woot-off items are stuck. Please fix it or I'll be forced to go back to work and actually do work!!

woot god... show us mercy!

Check out monoprice.com if you're looking for battery packs.

Someone mentioned it on a previous battery-related woot item, and I have gotten great use out of mine!

Waitlisted with 94% available -

Woot! is having issues. Bought 1 - figure I'll fill the bag with crap for my kid or make it a BOB and keep the charger for moi.
I'm generous that way... = >

Because 3Ah just doesn't sound as impressive as 3000 mAh. :P

The powerbag is on Amazon for Black $74.39, Red $61.18 and Blue $51.17. http://www.amazon.com/Powerbag-Designed-Charging-Smartphones-eReaders/dp/B005NCMXQ4/ref=sr_1_9?ie=UTF8&qid=1353350482&sr=8-9&keywords=powerbag
