I use them extensively. There are lots of good choices of hydration packs from both Camelbak and other companies. What you want depends on several factors. Do you do mostly short rides and only want to carry water? A Camelbak Rogue (85 oz) is a good choice. Do you do longer rides and need to carry stuff? A Camelbak M.U.L.E. is a good choice.
Osprey also makes a number of different packs. The Raptor 14 is similar in capacity to the Camelbak MULE. The Raptor 14 also has a clever bottom pocket for tools. Osprey packs have slightly better bladders in that they are top filling with a slide closure rather than a twist closure.
