IRL: Timbuk2’s Commute Messenger and Fujifilm’s EF-X20 flash

Welcome toIRL, an ongoing feature where we talk about the gadgets, apps and toys we’re using in real life and take a second look at products that already got the formal review treatment.

When he’s not copy editing Engadget, Philip Palermo likes to write about his gadget collection. And that gadget collection includes an impressive pile of camera gear (like this and this and this). Now he’s back, taking Fujifilm’s EF-X20 flash for a spin alongside his X-E1. Meanwhile, Dan’s found a bag spacious and compartmentalized enough to fit several days of clothing and all his trade show gear. Not an easy feat, folks.
