Looks like Boston will be getting three of the first of 150 full-body scanners purchased under Obama's stimulus plan funding:

To be installed within the next two weeks (There are already 40 of these machines in the US previously purchased through other means).

If you're not paranoid, congrats on not having to get cavity searched!
If you are paranoid, my condolences for this intrusion into your privacy!
