Last-Minute Gift Idea — Logitech Comfort Lapdesk
Image Credit: Logitech
Although my holiday shopping is complete, I know that some of you might be scurrying around for last-minute ideas. When I saw this Logitech Comfort Lapdesk over at The Gadgeteer, I thought it might qualify for the mobile geek in your life. At around $40 direct or through various e-tailers, it’s not a huge expense and it look pretty comfy for some couch surfing. And with all of the new Intel Atom N450 netbooks on the way in two short weeks, I expect there to be plenty of netbooking on the couch in 2010.
Logitech says this lapdesk can hand up to a 17″ notebook (Mac or PC! ;) ), so there’s room to spare with anything smaller than that. Aside from the cushy padding made of “air mesh” materials, I like how the lapdesk props up your computer at a 12-degree angle.

I’ve actually been looking at the Logitech n315 lapdesk myself, but can’t justify the $30 price tag.
Having the actual mousing surface that slides out on it would be very useful for me at times.
I have one. Does exactly what it claims to do. Simple as that. It is great if you have anything that generates some heat, thats for sure. BTW, in some configurations (positions u may be in etc) it also works well turned around the other way, just a hint!
