New Product Spotlight
Targus Introduces New Global Executive
Collection
On July
6, 2005 Targus introduced their new Line of Upscale Global Executive cases
including backpack. The new line of products is designed for the executive on
the go. The global Executive collection
consists of new features, better functionality, durable, stylish, and light
weight. Just about everything a traveler
on the go would want including an affordable price. I was invited to review the
bags and give a follow-up.
One
advantage targus raves about is their bags are equipped with state-of-the-art cushioning
technologies, specifically, the patented SafePORT Air Cushion System and the
patent-pending Dome Protection System™.
The patented SafePORT Air
Cushion System combines vented air cushioning and high-density foam padding in
a single chamber. These specially engineered polyurethane pillows
"float" the notebook inside thecase providing additional cushioning
from side impacts.
The Dome Protection System (DPS) is a system of layered, shock absorbing
circles which is inserted into the walls of the Targus notebook case to
disperse weight and minimize side impact pressure. As part of the case's
construction, the Dome Protection System diverts external force toward the
edges of the notebook, where it is stronger, and away from its delicate LCD
display. The System minimizes scratches caused by the screen being forced into
the keypad.
Global
Executive Backpack
The Targus Global Executive Backpack has a top-loading
design for notebooks with up to 15.4-inch screens. The Dome Protection System
and SafePORT Air Cushion System allow for ultimate notebook protection. This
lightweight backpack is constructed of rugged 2520D ballistic with 840D nylon
accents, with scratch-resistant lining and a weather resistant bottom to add to
its durability. The ergonomic design of the carry handle, zipper pulls, ultra
padded ergonomic mesh back and shoulder straps with removable, adjustable hip
belt and contoured yoke straps provide an ideal support system. The notebook
sleeve, section for file folders, dual-side zipper pockets and internal mesh
pocket for notebook cable accessories enable convenient organization. It's
rounded out with a retractable blue light, removable six slot CD/DVD sleeve,
mobile phone holder, ID holder, pen/pencil holder, removable accessory pouch
and hidden water bottle holder.
