i remember carrying a Camcorder, a 35mm camera and a laptop as carry ons at Newark Airport and when I went to test all the equipment after words nothing really worked the same afterwords. Camcorder Tapes that had footage on them were some how erased ( no these were no blanks to begin with ), the 35 mm camera hada roll of film in it that was used but when i turned the camera on it either said no film or full roll of film in it and the laptop if u tilted the screen a little bit the screen would shut off. No electronics in these devices were loose. All batteries where fresh and all devices were working within normal specs b4 the inspection.

To all those taking KEWR - aka Newark Airport out please make sure that u try and get your devices Visually inspected and carry any items that u purchased from the area your returning from such as ceramic cups and such make sure u take these items or at least highly delicate ones as carry on items so that nothing gets damaged during baggage shipping and claiming.
