Benefits of technology

[0011] Substantial advantage is achieved by providing a backpack with an insulated beverage pocket. In particular, a backpack with an insulated beverage pocket helps a user to maintain a beverage at a desired temperature, while allowing other items to be carried in the interior compartment. In certain embodiments, the insulated pocket prevents condensation from affecting other items carried in the backpack.

Problems solved by technology

Kullman is limiting in that whether or not the receptacle compartment is housing a beverage, the compartment still occupies the same amount of space in the backpack, which is highly inefficient.
