This latest version (2010) of the Overland Donner has a much-improved new front pocket design. Instead of velcro holding the bottom mesh-panel flap in place, it is more of an accordian style front pocket (still with velcro closure). It is much easier to access contents in front pocket now, which I really appreciate. The side bottle pockets still accomodate my thermos and child's sippy - they collapse into the bag when not in use, too. The bottle pockets are tall enough so they conceal the bottles I'm carrying. The back panel pocket fits a paperback or compact changing pad, and the interior slip pocket fits a few diapers (or your wallet). There are still a few things that annoy me about this bag, though. I miss the older matte canvas - the new shinier cordura looks a bit cheapy. I miss the old interior printed fabric too, the newer bags have boring solid color nylon interiors. I guess when they moved production from Chico, California to China, they decided to use cheaper-looking, plain fabrics. The key clip in the front compartment is plastic (wish it was metal, the small plastic clip cannot hold but 1 or 2 keys), and the sunglass compartment only has fleece on one side (wish it had fleece on BOTH sides). But overall, I would still recommend the bag for travel or for use as a sportier-looking toddler bag. Not too many bags on the market have tall side bottle pockets and good organization; the Donner has both and is lightweight.
