And trust me - I know a bit out stuff being packed in your backpack...]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.gear21.com/2008/08/checkpoint-flyer-briefcase/"><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-158" style="margin: 2px 5px;" title="checkpoint" src="http://www.gear21.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/08/checkpoint-300x300.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="300" /></a>It may not be the most glamorous briefcase I&#8217;ve ever seen but the new Checkpoint Flyer Briefcase by Tom Bihn has one very important feature, it can slide through airport checkpoints with your Mac safely inside a sleeve, saving you the awkward fumble of taking out your computer, putting it into a bin and sending it through the chute unprotected along with umpteen other Apple computers.</p>
<p>The durable bag is made of ballistic nylon with YKK Uretek zippers, Duraflex Stealth buckles, and Poron foam-padded handles in Tom Bihn&#8217;s Seattle factory. It&#8217;s pretty travel friendly with 11 organizational pockets, a back pocket that zips open to accommodate the handle of a roll-aboard, a quick-access boarding pass/map pocket and a folded foam laptop compartment that completely encases the laptop in 8mm-thick closed cell foam, available in three sizes designed specifically to fit Apple laptops (yes, it fits PCs too). They say it requires less than 3 seconds to be prepared in order to send the briefcase through the x-ray machine. It is available for pre-order through Tom Bihn and ships by late September. It sells for $220.</p>

Now you can stop the madness!  Okay - seriously - WHO need bulletproof luggage?]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.gear21.com/2008/08/globe-trotter-bulletproof-luggage/"><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-140" style="margin: 2px 5px;" title="globe-trotter-bulletproof-luggage" src="http://www.gear21.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/08/globe-trotter-bulletproof-luggage-300x247.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="247" /></a>Do you need bulletproof luggage?  Do you travel to Iraq or South Central LA? This bulletproof case from Globe-Trotter might be right for you. &#8220;This British luggage company invited famed industrial designer Ross Lovegrove (who designed the Sony Walkman) to design an exceptional piece of luggage to commemorate its 110th anniversary. Intending to create the world&#8217;s lightest rigid suitcase, Ross shaped this bulletproof bag that weighs less than 1.35-kg(three pounds). It is molded from triaxial carbon/Kevlar composites by the Toray Corp. and Dupont in Japan. They have a molded rather than assembled aesthetic so they appear lightweight &#8211; as well as feel lightweight.&#8221; The price retails for $3,500.</p>
