Does anybody have any experience with this product? I'm thinking it might be handy to be able to edit photos while driving home from a shoot.

Be sure to look at the product pictures, and read the reviews. They're the best part. :wink

    So, were you shopping for one of these? rolleyes1.gif

    I noticed that the most popular tag was WTF.

    This is truly frightening. I can't believe what some people do when they should be focusing on the task at hand - driving!

    I hate to admit it, but I have been in a vehicle while one of these was used. And it worked perfectly. About 5 years ago I was traveling with one of our local sales reps, and we had an appointment cancel. He pulled into a 7-11 parking lot, parked the car, went in got a soda, took the desk out of the trunk and attached it. He then proceeded to put his organizer on the desk and started to work the phones. It actually worked well. He was much more comfortable than me with my organizer on my lap.

    But I do agree that the idea is silly looking and I am sure that someone has used it while driving.

    I assume you will be visiting DGrin or Smugmug while you are driving or otherwise in your car. Bless you!







    I'm joking about the while driving part. mwink.gif

    I'll be honest I could use one of these, I travel most every day and the email or schedule changes never stop. But I do. I gotta admit though it would be nice to have.

    But as said, some chucklehead will try to drive with it.

    As a sales person I could use one of these as well. It is quite difficult to get the laptop balanced with the steering wheel, center console, and legs. Laptops get hot too.deal.gif
