We finally released BackPack to the world with a short press release this week. The response was overwhelming. Gizmodo said “I am completely in love“. Engadget chimed in “Call us crazy (our parents sure have), but we think this thing is awesome“. We think being mentioned in Gizmodo and Engedget is awesome because we read Gizmodo and Engadget, like, 100 times a day ourselves!
Wired said “The Backpack is an ingenious, gravity-secured shelf” And one of our favorite Mac sites TUAW wrote “BackPack is a clever and well-designed product.” We think all these sites are ‘clever and well designed’ – and all we can say is thank you, preesh, thanks and thanks so much! See the complete list of BackPack mentions after the jump.
