Can't wait to see your design for your traveler's backpack! I'm in the market for a new pack right now myself and am disappointed with the choices I'm seeing in the stores right now.
I've been using a bulky, fits like a fridge on my back style panel-loading pack. After my last trip, I swore to never get one of those again.
The only alternative though is the top-loading packs like the one in your picture. I like their shape (not too wide) and how easily they compress.
I think that my ideal pack would have the shape and fit of a top-loader with a nice oval shape panel opening on the front instead of the drawstring closing with lid on top.
Keep us posted on your pack design. There's definitely a market for something in between the traditional alpine packs and bulky travel packs. :0)

I think this pack design might be onto something...it's got 3 zips which meet at the top, lets you open it up completely like a duffel or panel loading pack, but still streamlined like an alpine pack.It's probably the closest to an ideal pack I've seen so far.
Way out of my price range though at $350.
