Brilliant product. I think everyone on ETS should install one of these.

Make sure you scroll down to the reviews. The comments are well considered and very informative.

As I clean the Dr Pepper out of my keyboard. Mr Sulu's review was the best, altho the midget one was informative.

Hmm, seems to me it is the anti-thesis of survival.

I just ordered one, thanks. I have a long commute. This will help me get work done while I'm driving. Don't worry. My commute doesn't have a lot of turns. So, I shouldn't be too distracted.

I hear this same company is coming out with a companion eliptical exerciser that attaches to your brake and accellerator pedals, to keep you fit while driving those long commutes.

I really like this for dining while on the road. No need to hold a soda between my legs while munching on a burger and fries. Now I can put them on a table like a civilized person would do. wink Even better, I can eat a real dinner with a knife and fork. What a great idea whistle lol

On a serious note, I don't know how useful this thing would for be for its intended use: providing a flat service to the driver while the car is parked. There isn't much room between your chest and the steering wheel (this issue is particularly troublesome for well-endowed women). So it seems easier just to switch over to the passenger's side and use a lap table. You'll have more room.

If you frequently need to use a laptop while driving, maybe the police car solution of mounting a stand between the two seats is better.

All joking aside I sometimes have to work from my car. I do so parked, from the front passenger seat. There isn't enough room in the driver's seat for me and my laptop.
