Matthew Olivolo March 30th, 2010

Yvonne Strahovski aka-Sarah on NBC's Chuck Last night’s Chuck episode on NBC was action packed. With everything going on at the same time, Chuck locked the beautiful Yvonne Strahovski (Sarah) in the Spy Headquarters Office in order to keep her safe.

She had to figure out a way to get out out of the locked confined space, so she looked through the Buy More security cameras. The fist camera angle happened to be directly on the rack of Mobile Edge ScanFast Laptop Bags. Both Chuck and his co-star Hannah have used the ScanFast cases in multiple scenes.

Mobile Edge laptop bags are super stylish and functional, and now Mobile Edge leads the market in Checkpoint Friendly Laptop Cases. Regardless of your laptop size, if you have a large 17.3″ wide screen or a small 8.9″ ultra portable Netbook screen size there is a laptop sleeve and case to suit your needs.

There are a variety of new rules that will change the way we travel moving forward. For instance, airlines are no longer able to leave passengers stuck on the tarmac for more than three hours without providing free food and drinks. Before airlines were not limited to how long they could keep passengers on board before taking off.

This was mainly due to inclement weather conditions, or delays at other airports etc. However, with these new guidelines it may force airlines to cancel more flights making it harder for passengers to arrive at their destinations. Click on the CBS video listed below for more information.
