I ordered one here in the UK from a source in the States. The difficulty was finding someone who stocked it and someone who would ship overseas, but my red Pod arrived within a few days thanks to Fed Ex.

This truely is a wonderful buy and a wonderfully designed bag. I can squeeze my Nikon Coolpix 995 inside (along with a few loose CompactFlash cards). In the left outside pocket I can get my Kodak PalmPix. The only pocket that my Palm IIIC fits into is the front, but it really needs to come out of the wallet to squeeze in (it squeezes into the other two pockets but the zip feels like it's going to burst). In the right pocket I have my Navman GPS300 for the Palm, in case I get lost :-). Each of these three external pockets has room for more and contain smaller pockets or bungee cords to tie down batteries, smartmedia and more. On the left and right outside pockets are the externally webbed "pouches", which my Nokia 6210 and my Philex MPress3 MP3 player fit into. There's even room to "hide" a credit card or cash too !

This is a Tardis (for you Doctor Who fans) of a bag and even though it cost me the equivalent of $90 after shipping and 17.5% sales tax (plus import duty) it was worth every penny !

This is the bag you need if you want to travel light, but have everything with you.

It's fantastic !

I first saw this case on PocketPCPassion. I didn't realize until much later just how small it is as the pictures seem to show everything fitting so nicely. If only it were a little cheaper I would already own one. Perhaps Christmas.

I've just come back froma two week holiday in Portugal and the Pod has been thoroughly tested.

I even managed to squeeze more than the afore mentioned equipment into the bag.
1 min-tripod (in the main compartment on top of the Coolpix995)
2 MP3 Players (1 in each of the webbed pockets)
2 headphones (looped through the carrying handle of the Pod)
10 Smartmedia Cards (in an internal pocket)
1 mini Radio the size of in-ear headphones (in an inner pocket)

And the best thing was, after two weeks my equipment was almost sand-free.

The Pod rarely left my side, as it does now here at work. :-)

Roadwired is coming out with a larger version of the pod. It is called the podzilla. It is suppose to be available at the end of this month. I can't wait to receive mine! The little pod is just too small.

All times are PT (US)
