I have an Osprey Aether 85 and an Exposure 66. They fit me well even though I'm on the bubble between their medium and large. I bought the 85 to replace my older Dana Terraplane and find it carries heavy loads as well or better even though it's over 2 pounds lighter. I have no experience with the other packs.
Yes, thanks for the objective comments regarding your competitors packs. Out of curiosity are people looking for multiple compartments in their packs? I've owned a few with the sleeping bag divider and have never used it because I felt it prevented me from filling the pack efficiently.

Thanks rick, but the OP is looking for multiple compartments in his packs, and we don't make packs like that yet. The closest we have is the semi-mythical (that's for you UncleBob!) 75L which has a large sleeping bag compartment. However, we won't have that in stock till January, so ...
