so i'm looking at the skooba bag, and it's definitely NOT appealing. i read some articles earlier today about how there are bag companies that are claiming they've already got a checkpoint friendly bag. among them was incase and brenthaven. if comparing the bags, the incase sleeves with the brenthaven edges and this new skooba design, the brenthaven edges definitely take the cake. granted the skooba bag is a bit bulkier in design but it's definitely a sore to the eye. the incase sleeve is just too thin and doesn't do much in the protection area whereas the brenthaven edge is foam padded and thick all the way around, and it even opens up the same way the skooba bag does. best part is it's already on the market. i know because i got one as a gift a while back and couldn't be happier that it meets all the tsa regulations. all you do is zip zip zip and you've got a laptop that sits inside its case happily along with a complete full view of the laptop for xray scanning. here is a link to the edge: http://www.brenthaven.com/catalog-edge-i-black.html
