Default Hydration Jacket

I was at a dealer today in Yucca Valley and was shown a Hydration Jacket. It has 4 areas with packets that you soak in water and as you drive it cools you off like a swamp cooler. Have any of you used this jacket? and if so what is your comments about it.

Wife and I saw those last weekend. Look like a good idea (and the wife really liked the fit of the one she tried on).

However, we ended up getting 2 Nitro mesh jackets for less than the cost of one of the HD mesh hydration jackets.

Have a vest, but the same idea. Works great. Rode from Oatman, AZ to LV yesterday to try it out before it gets really hot. I was actually cold for the first half hour after putting it on.
As it gets hotter, that will be with me.
