Does anyone know where to pick up good used Olympus equipment over the web?
Also anyone know of any good deals on back packs that are made to hold laptops and camera gear. I have seen a few ads here and there but no prices or very good details. My laptop is a wide screen and I pack a E500.

I just got a backpack for my laptop and I really like it. I will check and see what brand and about what price range you are looking at and get back with you. I am thinking it was around the $60.00 range though. If you are looking for used equipment for the 4/3 system you may have a hard time finding it since it is so new to the market, but e-bay would be my first choice.

Check out www.keh.com for used gear. I have never ordered from them, but have heard only good things about them.
I will have to look for my receipt for my newest camera bag as I don't remember where I got it. It's not a laptop bag, but it was a good deal. I checked the local stores to get my hands on the bag I wanted, then found it MUCH cheaper online.

Here's the laptop backpack that I got. I like a lot. But programming security and fire panel requires a lot of extras. This bag may be bigger than you need. As far a Camera backpacks I have a Tamrac Adventure 2, It's great.

I found it!

This is where I got my LowePro Compact AW bag. It was $25 cheaper than B&H, and about $50 cheaper than the camera shop I went to. If you're looking for a LowePro bag, I would check them out.
Of course there are other brands to check out as well, but I was very happy with the service and price I got on my bag.
