I'm sure the FBI/FAA or whoever investigates this will come forward with more facts or some actual charges. In the meantime, based on what little we know, I'm satisfied with the current state of affairs.

The explosives are the bomb Kevin. Otherwise it's no different from a laptop or a CD player. In fact you can hide a bomb in a laptop, but an exposed circuit board shows clearly it is not a bomb. It's clearly less of a threat (and by less of, I mean not). Heck I'm sure some people still have those see-through music players - should they be arrested because the guards want to not see the insides?
