Here's what other sites are saying:

From Moosejaw:
"Free Shipping. Gregory Iso Pack (Fall 2007) Sized between the Reactor and Advent Pro, the Iso by Gregory with its quick draw compression and expandable helmet pocket make it ideal for a plethora of uses. Volume: 1200 IN3 / 20 L Weight: 1 LB. 10 OZ. / .7 KG Features Sport harness Breathable Aerotech mesh backpanel Gullwing waistbelt Front access Quickdraw compression system Zip-open expandable front pocket Zip thru hydration access on backpanel Zipper lock capability Mesh waistbelt pockets Silicone injected G 30 fabric body 210 d high tenacity nylon reinforcements"

From RockCreek:
"Sized between the Reactor and Advent Pro, the Gregory Iso s quick draw compression and expandable helmet pocket make it ideal for a plethora of uses. The Iso features Gregory's G fabric, which is 75% lighter than other pack cloths, but injected with silicone, so its fibers stretch under pressure instead of locking together and tearing. This gives the Iso the strength to withstand the rigors of light weight competitive adventures like adventure racing.Backpacker Magazine chose the Iso as the best ultralight backpack in their 2006 Buyer's Guide. [The Iso is] now the most used piece of gear in my closet, said Jonathan Dorn, Backpacker Editor-In-Chief. Along with its light weight, editors singled out the Iso s organization capabilities and back-panel breathability."

From Altrec Outdoors:
"While Gregory designed their Iso pack for adventure racing, we've seen it on the backs of a few day hikers and athletic tourists. That's because the Iso features a lightweight and stretchy G 30 fabric that remains resilient to the rigors of constant motion. While the G 30 fabric is more than 75% lighter than the materials found in other Gregory packs, it's also coated with a silicone treatment that makes the fibers stretch instead of shredding. Like the smaller Reactor racing pack, the Iso can accommodate a 120-oz. hydration reservoir (not included), but it also features more room for food or clothing and an expandable front pocket that easily accommodates a cycling or climbing helmet. We found that the mesh waist belt pockets were just the right size for energy gel packets--a small feature you usually don't find on other adventure racing backpacks."

"I've had this pack for over almost 2 years and it's a great small pack. It holds the H2O bladder really well and has good pockets. The thing I don't like is when you have the water bladder in the bag, it's hard to get all my gear that is necessary when backpacking into the pack."

"Great daypack for carrying gear into possible storms in the mountains, yet super lightweight. I was able to load shell, insulation, and an extra baselayer, plus other gear with room to spare (plus hydration). Came in handy when the thunderstorms raced in. A slight minus is a lot of different straps to futz with but only a minor problem."

Unisex Iso

"A great lightweight, roomy, and comfortable daypack, with just one caveat.

The Iso is big enough to easily hold a whole day's gear, including a few layers, your lunch, first aid kit, etc. Contents are easily cinched down using the well-placed compression straps, and the pack is so well balanced that it's easy to forget it's even on your back."
