Amazon.com Product Description
Bring the noise with the JanSport Elefunk messenger bag, a compact shoulder carryall that still offers plenty of space to store your school or work supplies. Boasting a capacity of 1,751.4 cubic inches, the Elefunk can fit such items as a couple of textbooks and paperbacks, a large binder, a couple of spiral notebooks, a calculator, pens and pencils, a bag lunch, a cell phone, and an MP3 player--all without breaking a sweat. The bag is equipped with such chambers as a single main compartment with file dividers, two corner storage compartments, one front drawbridge compartment with a deluxe organizer, and a side mesh water bottle pocket. The bag also closes securely thanks to the dual buckle closure front flap, which includes an exterior zippered pocket for thin items. And as with any good bag, the Elefunk is comfortable to carry, with a padded, adjustable webbing strap that slings easily across your shoulder. Other features include 600-denier polyester and 420-denier velocity nylon construction, a quick-find cell phone pocket, and a fully padded back panel for cushioning comfort. The Elefunk bag measures 16 by 13 by 5.5 inches (W x H x D) and weighs 2 pounds 1 ounces. All JanSport bags carry a lifetime warranty.

Summary: well made 2010-01-17
Comment: well made, large enough. gave four stars for difficulty to unlock for my daughter, otherwise happy with the purchase.

Summary: good bag for recreation but not for business 2010-01-16
Comment: CONS:
- The buckle clips that hold down the flap are hard to pinch/undo
- The large zipped section under the flap doesn't have enough organizer slots, so stuff will be all jumbled up in there.
- Laptop section isn't well padded (side padding very thin and no padding on the bottom at all)
- Straps are sown on so less durable and can't change to special padded straps
- No quick access pocket in the back outside of the bag
PROS:
+ Roomy zipped main compartment
+ Roomy pockets on the front of the flap and under the flap.
While this bag falls shorts as a computer business bag, I think it has potential as a sports or duffle bag alternative.
If you are looking for a messenger bag with a zipped main compartment covered by a flap, check out the review on these other ones that I tried: Netpack Comp Brief II, Netpack Manhattan Computer Brief, and I ended up with Dakine Laptop Messenger Bag SMall.

Summary: Love This Bag 2009-12-17
Comment: I teach four courses so I carry a ton of stuff with me every day - books, notebooks, binders, etc - and it all fits in this bag with room to spare. The padded shoulder strap is comfy even though the bag is heavy when full. My only complaint is that the two buckles that secure the top flap are a little stiff but hopefully they will loosen up with use. I had originally wanted a briefcase (somewhat more professional looking) but they tend to be heavy even when empty and not as roomy or practical. This one is light but sturdy, with room for everything. I would definitely recommend it.

Summary: Sturdy bag for work and travel 2009-12-10
Comment: I was a bit skeptical buying this bag even though the reviews were good, but I was pleasantly surprised. I took this bag on my trip to Hong Kong and boy was it worth it. My T61 laptop fit in snugly into it along with a set of change of clothes. The bag has ample space inside to fit a few books and also enough zipper pouches on the side to hold your misc. items like coins, pens, mp3 players, chargers, cords etc. Access to these pouches is very convenient especially at the airport security line, where you can slip in your cellphones, wallet, coins without having to open the main flap.
I now use this for work carrying my laptop, charger and my lunch box. Have had a great experience.
I gave it a 4 star because the bag fells a bit uncomfortable when you load it with heavier items like books, but then again it was never designed for the super heavy items.
