Mobile Edge Showcases Checkpoint
Friendly Laptop Case Collection
New ScanFast™ laptop cases TSA compliant
ANAHEIM, Calif., – July 16, 2008 – Mobile
Edge, the industry leader in innovative and stylish laptop
computer carrying cases and accessories, unveiled three innovative
“Checkpoint Friendly” laptop cases designed to help move
traveling computer users through airport luggage checks more
quickly. Now, airport screeners can X-Ray a traveler’s laptop
while still inside their bag. The new cases from Mobile Edge
have been tested and meet the new Transportation Security
Administration (TSA) guidelines for carry-on luggage.
The TSA recently announced plans to implement new security
procedures that will allow travelers to pass through security
checkpoints without having to remove their laptops from their
cases. Simultaneously, the TSA issued a request to laptop
bag manufacturers to create “Checkpoint Friendly” laptop
bags to help speed up security lines, allowing passengers
to get to their departure gates in a timely manner. These
new cases will help shorten wait times for more than 250
million passengers that travel annually in the U.S.
The design team at Mobile Edge quickly responded to the
TSA request and came up with three new innovative case designs.
This new ScanFast™ Collection consists of a backpack, a briefcase
and a messenger bag, all designed to conveniently open for
airport screeners and help speed travelers through the X-Ray
screening process.
“This is an unprecedented request by the TSA to help relieve
some of the congestion at checkpoint locations nation wide,”
said G. David Cartwright, President & CEO, Mobile Edge.
“We wanted to produce a range of laptop cases that were compliant
with the new TSA guidelines and yet were still both stylish
and functional, and we did just that.”
Incorporating industry proven Mobile Edge computer protection,
all three cases will accommodate all popular models of laptops
and will be covered by the Mobile Edge Lifetime Warranty.
This new ScanFast™ Collection is scheduled to launch in late
summer.
Mobile Edge continues to expand the laptop carrying case
category by offering new, innovative and smart designs that
fuse fashion trends with form and function, creating a brand
that makes a positive statement about today's mobile computing
lifestyle.
