Hot on the heels of my post about Skooba Design’s Checkpoint Friendly bags come these from Mobile Edge. According to an email I received from Matthew Olivolo, their Director of Public Relations, they “are going to the airport to do testing on Thursday (July 10) and then pull the trigger on production.” He also mentioned that a full press release will be appearing later this week…
Which laptop bag manufacturer will be next to come out with their own Checkpoint Friendly designs?
Is it my imagination? Or did travelers everywhere suddenly start breathing a collective sigh of relief…?
I started Gear Diary on September 30, 2006, and my goal was that this not be an easily labeled site. We all have gear that we use daily – some of it electronic and some of it organic. I think it is fascinating to explore the equipment that makes our lives easier, more entertaining, more productive, and more manageable. My hope is that Gear Diary visitors will find this site to be a comfortable and friendly place to discuss interesting topics – and not only those that are tech related, as well as a location to discover various types of gear – whatever that term may end up implying – that they never knew existed. My specialty is in-depth reviews written in a layman’s terms, because everyone can understand technology, sometimes it just takes a little translating. +Judie Stanford

OK, did I miss something? Does this mean that you would no longer have to take your laptop out of the bag? And, if so, this is kosher with the TSA?

We tested our bags at a TSA checkpoint before TSA designated airports. This gave us a headstart on development and confirmed that our choice of materials was excellent for this application.
We have already sold out the first lot and are now holding inventory for media.
If you want a checkpoint friendly laptop bag to review just drop me a line.
