Okay, any recommendations for one of those rollaround laptop desks that slide right up to a couch or chair and the wheelbase fits under the chair so it can be right on your lap? I'm looking for one that's got a pretty wide table, because I'd like to get a widescreen laptop later, and meanwhile, the SO has a new joystick that's both a stick and a throttle, so it takes up about the room of two mousepads next to the laptop. Anyone found ones they're happy with?
I want to get it as his b-day present.
I've found that everything I've ordered or bought from Levenger's has been really well-designed, but I have no specific experience with the rolling desk-y thing they provide. Still, I'd give them serious consideration for it just on that basis.
Hmm. Their scooter is just a tad too small -- 25" and I think I'll need 27" at least. Bummer. It's lovely.
Actually, their plain lapdesk looks just right, dimensionally. It's cheaper, of course, and not quite as fancy as what I'd planned, but he might like it just as well.
Liese, I have Levenger's [edit:] Laplander [link] and it makes me very happy. My husband has their regular lap desk, which is also excellent but doesn't have a pad. Both of us use them as both regular desks and computer desks.
Made more sense when they

Hmm. Betsy, I hadn't noticed that the regular lap desk didn't have a pad. Does your husband find it comfortable? Does he balance it on a chair? The SO sits on the couch, so I think he'd want a pad, but the laplander's dimensions are too small for what I want.
The husband finds the lap desk very comfortable, but he uses it in a rocker with arms. Did you take a gander at the tambour table?
