Pre-order promotion ending this week - New Checkthrough video now online

The much-anticipated, patent-pending Checkthrough “Checkpoint Friendly” laptop bag from Skooba is finally close to shipping. There are already thousands of Checkthrough bags on pre-order, and we hope to get all of those out in approximately 2 weeks.

This Friday, October 17th, is the last day to take advantage of our pre-order program, which guarantees availability and shipment of pre-ordered bags in the first “wave”, as well as a special promotional offer. Checkthrough will be covered in huge-circulation magazines, as well as major national TV news shows, in the coming weeks, so we are expecting to be swamped. Pre ordering is the best way to lock-in a bag and be among the first to get one. Finally, check out our new video showing all of the features and functionality of the Checkthrough Bag in detail.

If you’re in the market for a laptop bag to help you breeze through airport checkpoints, this may be the one for you.  The bag retails for $140 USD.

I’ve been using a Skooba Shuttle laptop backpack (shown above) since the start of this summer. I bought it for full price and just noticed that not only is Skooba offering a discount off the price I paid - but you can take another 20% off with coupon code SIZZLE. I love this backpack and carry my 15″ MacBook Pro inside it. The backpack has hugely padded shoulders so it never digs into my arms or shoulders. The lower part of the pack is heavily cushioned which helps support it on your back as well as provide plenty of protection for what’s inside. There are lots of inner pockets that hold extra stuff like power adapters, pens, pads, my Verizon Broadbandconnect modem. I use mine every day as an informal briefcase because it fits so well slung over one shoulder. I’ve also taken it with me on bike trips all over town and biking into work. If you’ve had your eye on a Skooba Design then this is your chance to save big. Head over to their site and use code SIZZLE to take another 20% off their prices. My two word review for this bag? Love it.
