September 22nd - via: thegadgetflow.com
If you’re like me, you love your electronics. You also hate the way the battery indicator gets smaller and smaller while you’re away from home or away from a charger. Personally, I don’t carry a charger with me unless I absolutely know I will need it. In the cases where I wasn’t prepared to be out for so long, I’m stuck and it’s not a good feeling. The SOOT Electropack 2 aims to solve that problem by taking the original concept, the Electropack, and improving on it to give us, the consumers, an even better product. (Read More)

Awesome Stuff: Rethinking The Backpack
September 28th - via: techdirt.com
As someone who is "on the go" all too frequently, I've been trying to perfect the idea of "my office is in my backpack" for a while (always getting closer and closer but not quite there...). For a while, however, I never put any thought into the backpack itself. I survived on a series of free backpacks picked up at various conferences, which came in varying sizes and levels of quality. A few years back I finally started asking around for ideas on good bags, and got a few recommendations for Swiss Army backpacks. (Read More)

Soot electropack: oersterke rugzak laadt je mobiele devices op
September 23rd - via: want.nl
De Soot Electropack is een zéér stevig rugzak, met een ingebouwde accu om je mobiele devices op te laden. De tas is gemaakt van zwaar vinyl en stevig nylon, waardoor hij praktisch waterdicht is (behalve als je hem echt onderdompelt in water).
