Default Airport Security verses the Business Traveler

Laptops, PDA's, even iPods are banned on international flights leaving
England. It has been known since at least 1995 that these devices pose
a threat to commercial airliners when used by terrorists. In an
in-depth article we explain the threat that portable electronic devices
pose and conclude with a list of tips that can help you survive the
current and any new restrictions. Let us all hope it doesn't come to
this.
