LE has finally posted the Updated Updated DIA with longer straps on their website:

I saw this bag IRL today. I quite like the navy color -- very nice. And the interior light blue now also has light blue mesh pockets (not black mesh), so its really easy to see stuff. BUT the bag is still quite heavy when empty (thanks to the frame around the top) and the two long shoulder straps would be a PITA IMO. But for $29 it is a good quality bag. Hmmm, perhaps I should have picked one up?!?!

I've been waiting for this to show up, too. It looks very nice, and I love all of the color choices. Can you wear it messenger style, or do you have to wear it over one shoulder? Do you think this would be a good bag to use with 2 kids? (Just planning ahead...!)

Did you see it at Sears?

No, I don't think you could wear it messenger style -- the straps are too short for that and there are 2 straps, not one.

Hmm, 2 kids, yes, but it is a heavy bag even when empty, so maybe too heavy if you are juggling 2 kids??!? Yes, I saw it at Sears. I did like the navy color and the organization seemed good too.

The website makes it sound like the bag only has "one" shoulder strap rather than two. I know several posters here have already got these & they had two. Is it possible that they were changed again??

ETA: I just sent LE an email re: the straps. It seems odd to me that they describe it as only having one. I would order one if it was a "one strap" bag. Hmmmm....

BTW: Is the bag much heavier than a T2?????
