insTand

I saw Jerry Michalski with one of these at a conference and I got the URL from him and ordered it on the spot. I had it delivered to the next hotel along my travel path and at the next conference, I was prepared. It's an amazing little device. It is a little stand that folds up into a pretty light weight package that I now tote with me across the ocean. It allows you to adjust height and angle and lets you use your notebook PC in the most comfortable position even if you end up with a crappy seat at a conference. A MUST HAVE for hardcore conference bloggers.

love it,

i'll need to order one of these. often, i bring my tablet pc, so i can stand in lines, write, do work etc, but other times, i just have my laptop, so i'd use this too.

great new site joi.

cheers,

I showed this product to my mom, the owner of a 17" Powerbook, and she says that the man doesn't look very comfortable. He's in that big chair and is sitting on the edge of it, not relaxing at all.

Haha. True. Maybe I should do a self portrait.

I was thinking of something like this for random church-service bloggings ( closest thing to regular conventions I get around these parts ). Such a temptable purchase... but first - them pesky bills.

Yes its a nice laptop stand for conference and meetings....Hope this product would be easily available in the market.....
