Default Inflatable Punching Bag?

Hey guys,

For a little while now I've been toying around with the idea of getting an inflatable punching bag. I've never boxed or owned any such equipment before. I just thought it might be a nice addition to my exercise. I kinda "air box" sometimes while I'm doing my walking or jogging but I'm thinking an actual piece of equipment might be more useful and fun.
Anyway...I saw this one at drugstore.com:

It's lightweight, it's cheap. Like I said, I'm just a beginner and I'm not looking to be Laila Ali or anything. I just thought it might be a fun workout to add.

What do you think?

I have this bag. It was a little hard to inflate but it's nice.

I got the Everlast bag tonight. Inflated it, which was a workout in itself, lol. So I gave it a trial run for about 10 minutes, got my heart pumping, my body sweating, and my knuckles reddening. Do you wear anything on your hands with an inflatable bag? I noticed the guy in the ad doesn't.

Still...after 10 minutes, I felt like I was ready to punch somebody's lights out. It was fun!

How much did you buy that one for, and where did you get it? I love kickboxing, and would love to have an inflatable one that was portable. Is it one you have to hang?
