The inventory of a player's character is the menu page they are likely to look at the most for equipment allocation and organizing the backpack. This is where you apply armour or weapons for usage.
Bag Slots
The slots in the Diablo III bag work very different from the inventory in Diablo II, as it no longer applies the "tetris-style" inventory of differently sized items, requiring time to organize the layout of your loot. As of April 30[1], this changed and the inventory is now divided into three sections:
- Backpack - Used for large items such as weapons and armor. One large item goes into one large slot.
- Pouch - Used for storing smaller things like runes, gems or scrolls.
- Quest chest - Used for storing quest items.
The inventory itself uses three tabs for each type of bag. This new layout efficiently solves the problem that WoW players face, with organizing their inventory. The only thing left that could be a mess is the small pouch, and that will likely not be too bad.
Please note that the area labelled "left hand" is actually right hand slot on the screen and vice-versa. It's the left hand of the character.
Stash
A Stash facility has been promised, but specifics of that have yet to be revealed.

Fan Requests
When the 1-item-slot bags were revealed, there were some fans who would rather have an inventory with the multiple square items in the actual bag, and the newer version from April 30 is a little step in that direction. Some still want the original D1 and D2 bags though, but it's highly unlikely to change. Here is a quote from a discussion between a Battle.net member and Bashiok: [2]
- Phat_smoke: All items shuld = 1 inv square space
- thats my thot
- Bashiok:
