Someone posted a statement to notify your local TV News Stations about the MagShoe. Seemed liked a good idea. Here's a write-up I made to submit. Feel free to make any edits/additions and use it yourself if you want:

"Anyone who travels frequently knows what a nuisance it is to have to remove your shoes at airport security checkpoints. The reason why this requirement exists is because metal detection devices can’t detect metal from the bottom of the foot to about 6” above the ankle. Removing shoes is more than a nuisance, it is a health hazard. Studies have shown that shoe removal in high traffic area leaves behind bacteria and fungus that can spread from person to person (Link: http://www.10news.com/news/9463455/detail.html?rss=sand&psp=news). While there are no definitive studies at this point, the potential for the h1n1 virus spreading through such areas could become an area of greater concern.

One company has the solution for the above problems, it’s called the “MagShoe”. Developed by IDO Security (Ticker: IDOI website: http://www.idosecurityinc.com ), the MagShoe allows passengers to proceed through security check points without having to remove their shoes. Scanning takes less than 2 seconds and is in airports across the world including: Australia, Eastern Europe, Middle East and Western Europe. Interestingly enough, North America and more specifically the USA is absent from this list.

My question to your news team is, Why?"
