SwissGear SA9360 Backpack (Black)

The backpack is not, by any means, a new invention. Since man’s inception, we have been taking our belongings, throwing them in some sort of cloth or fabric and strapping them to our backs in order to get them from point A to point B. Now while many of you typically think of backpacks as being used for school, there are a lot of people out there that are using them to carry around their laptops when they travel.

Backpacks have also come a long way as far as forms of materials being used to create them. Back in the day, people would use anything they could find like animal skins. In today’s world, we create backpacks with waterproof pockets, shock proof fabric and other high tech features to help transport important, valuable and fragile items like laptops.

When on the go, your average traveler needs little more than a laptop to stay in touch with family, update their Facebook about their trip, work on the go or even watch a movie or listen to music. With such an important device being lugged around, doesn’t it make sense that you should have a backpack that is capable of keeping it protected?

You don’t even need to carry your backpack on your back anymore if you don’t want to. Many backpacks nowadays can be carried on both shoulders, one shoulder, carried by hand via attached ring or even pulled behind you thanks to built-in wheels. Talk about convenience.

When looking for the perfect backpack, you need to take a few things into consideration. First of all, think about size. More specifically the volume (interior size). You need to be sure that your laptop will actually fit into your backpack. If you carry around a 17″ gaming laptop, then a bag only big enough for the laptop itself won’t do you any good at all.

What else will you need to carry with you? Are you planning on throwing in a bunch of clothing with your laptop? Is it just the laptop? Are there enough pockets for all of your accessories?

What about material? If you like traditional packs, then you may go for leather. Leather is durable, waterproof and has other natural characteristics that make it a perfect travel material. The only problem is that leather bags are expensive and can also be fairly heavy. A combination of ripstop nylon and canvas is the best bet for most people. This gives you protection from the elements, it is lightweight and durable. Padded compartments are also good depending on how much protection you think your laptop and its accessories deserve.

On a side note, there are also backpacks that are specifically designed to reduce tension on your back, reducing the likelihood of back pain and if you are planning on carrying a fully loaded bag, then make sure it has an attached waistband. Also, make sure there are enough pockets and pouches. Many backpacks come with specific pockets for chargers, headphones, iPods and other tech gear.

A laptop backpack is one of the best things you can get yourself or someone that can’t leave home without their device. Just make sure you take everything you need to into consideration before you buy something that won’t work for your needs.

A Tech Travel Agent is your one contact for bringing together your entire trade show or convention experience. A single phone call to an agent can allow an event planner to completely circumvent the logistics of acquiring the appropriate technology, on time and in working condition, along with on-site technicians.

Computing

If you are putting together a trade show booth and need computers for company use or even to engage your booth’s visitors, an Agent can have any kind of computing device delivered straight to your booth and installed.  Anything from high-end machines for booth visitors to play demo versions of new video games at E3 or tablet computers that help you keep track of all that is coming and going.

Audio-Visual

A Tech Travel Agent can also help you rig up a complete audio-visual experience. Let’s say that your company has a modest booth at a trade show.  A simple plasma screen rental can make your booth much more dynamic and stimulating, and  it would be even more interesting if your audio was being played through high quality speakers. On the other hand, it might be a very large convention you are planning, in which case much more elaborate technology is needed. Imagine sitting in a large convention and seeing large format video walls, dynamic lighting arrangements, and a high-quality sound system. For convention planners, that enticing image is often followed by the daunting realization that bringing that image to reality is an arduous task, embodying a logistical labyrinth. This daunting burden need not be dreaded or carried, since a single call to a Tech Travel Agent can relieve a convention or tradeshow planner of logistical burdens.

 Wireless Communication

Convention or trade show planning isn’t really over until the event itself is over.  Things simply do not always go as planned, and often plans need to be adjusted as quickly as they are executed. Reality therefore demands that event planners have each other ready-at-hand and on-call at a moment’s notice, and this requires wireless communication devices. A Tech Travel Agent can supply event planners with any form of quick wireless communication, from Nextel rentals to two-way radio rentals and various PDA devices. Rarely would planners need to use such devices after an event is over, so renting that kind of temporary-need technology for the duration of an event is very practical and ideal.

Your Tech Travel Agent™ will handle all your computer technology requirements, anywhere – for any length of time! Our rates are tailored to the period of time you need.

Power Point Projectors
Most business class projectors will do a good job displaying your PowerPoint presentation. If you have a small presentation group, a 2000 lumen LCD projector will be able to produce a nice and clear picture. For larger audiences you should consider a 5000 lumen LCD projector.

Whenever somebody stops by your trade booth at a convention or trade show, the main thing they focus on is your presentation. Things like demonstrations, pamphlets and previews of your product are some of the few things people tend to look at. But one of the main things people focus on is a video monitor.

Video monitors have the unique ability to draw in an audience and keep their attention focused on you and your product. And while having one or two monitors looks good, there is always something better.

In the case of video monitors the next step up is a video wall. That’s right, nothing says “Hey look at me!” quite like a 20-foot-high wall of video monitors. A video wall is one thing that will definitely get the attention of any passerby without hesitation.

A Tech Travel Agent is your number one nationwide AV rental supplier and your only source for Video Wall Rentals.  Video walls are an extremely popular alternative to projectors and are mainly used at large events like trade shows and conferences where there is a desire to make a professional statement about your product or booth.

Tech Travel Agents offer a full range of Video Wall Rental sizes and can help you choose the right number and configuration for your event. Tech Travel Agents also make renting a Video Wall extremely quick and easy. With one point of contact your Tech Travel Agent will set you up with a local technician from wherever you need your video wall and personally deliver, set up and test your video wall to ensure that it is working properly.

When you are done, the same technician will tear down and pick up your video wall taking all the hassle away from you. Get your video wall in a plethora of sizes including 2 x 2, 3 x 3, 4 x 4, 5 x 5 or even your own custom design.

For your next video wall rental don’t hesitate to call somebody who has been in the business for over 20 years. Call your Tech Travel Agent today to get the best in quality and performance in a Video Wall Rental.

When one prepares to give a speech or a presentation, there are many things they consider. They have to be aware of their audience; they have to stay on topic; they have to be interesting; they have to make sure any and all visual aids are in their proper locations and viewable by the audience, etc… However, there is one thing that reigns above all of these other things on the importance scale, and that is whether or not your audience can actually hear you or not!

While it may sound like something trivial, you would be surprised at just how many presentations get overlooked or passed up because the audience has difficulty hearing the speaker. The reasons why the audience may not hear the speaker are numerous though a few do stick out. Either the speaker isn’t speaking loudly enough or he/she doesn’t have an adequate sound system. You would be shocked to know how many people get on stage at a press event or presentation and don’t check their audio equipment beforehand.

One problem with fixing this is that sound systems, especially good ones, are pretty expensive and most companies do not see it as a valuable investment. Well, for all those companies, there is the great option of an Audio Rental. An audio rental is the perfect thing for any company that either doesn’t want to spend a lot of money on a system, or one that honestly doesn’t have any use for a permanently purchased audio setup.

Tech Travel Agents are here to make your next audio rental a cost effective and simple process. But before you get started with a rental, there are a few things you need to consider first. When choosing an audio rental, you need to focus on how big your audience is going to be and what specific type of equipment you will need. The good thing is that Tech Travel Agents have a wide variety of all kinds of audio systems that are perfect to fit any and all of your needs.

You can rent everything from a PA system, microphone or wireless microphone to speakers and even a sound mixer. Rent as much equipment as you need whether you need it for a small, medium or large venue. The best part is that with a Tech Travel Agent you have a single source of contact. Tech Travel Agents rent to over 1000 cities worldwide, and they take the time and effort needed in customizing each and every rental order to fit any and all desired specifications.

Like I said, renting an audio system from a Tech Travel Agent is easy, fast and one of the best business decisions you can make. They take a lot of the hassle out of traveling to conventions, trade shows and business meetings, allowing you to focus on what is really important.
