GADGET UPDATE: The 3M Notebook Privacy Computer Filter . . . Are you a lawyer who hasn't been getting enough grief from TSA when you travel? Then perhaps you need this--

It's the 3M Notebook Privacy Computer Filter. Once on an airplane, the filter can be placed over your laptop screen to prevent the people sitting around you from seeing what you're working on. In only minutes, a federal air marshal will have you in handcuffs, allowing you to cancel that deposition you've so been dreading. Works with or without hair gel in your briefcase. Only $75.
For more about terrorism and travel on this weblog, see the advice to lawyers who are afraid to fly and a post from the "headlines" category, "Sounds Like the Time the TSA Seized My Nail Clippers."

Interesting what we sacrifice in the name of security. Guess attorneys can't work on anything where the attorney client privilege attaches while on a flight anymore.
