While the Amazon review page is home to a lot of goofy comments from people claiming to be pathologists using it to catch up on work during the commute or people using it as a portable bar, there’s no denying that the Laptop Steering Wheel Desk is actually a useful product for people who A) have to work out of their car a lot, B) people who have to eat out of their car a lot, and C) people who drive around with their laptops open, looking for a place to steal wireless internet.  This is definitely a useful product, despite the fun people are having with it.

If I was, say, a real estate agent like our very own Kathy T., I’d want one of these in my car for catching up.  Some days, I’d love to just park somewhere, pop open my notebook, and get some writing done without having to go inside and chain myself to the desk in the basement.  This would be a great way to be able to do that.  A lot of times I find myself grabbing food on the way to/from places and trying to eat while riving.  It’d probably be a lot safer if I just ate off one of those trays, and I’d get a lot less food on myself that way, too.

But enough about my bad habits and love of stolen wifi.
