Best 'lapdesk' for 13" MBP?

[cameronfield]

So I've really been using my 13" MBP in bed, on my lap a whole lot lately, and I feel like it gets too hot sometimes/is uncomfortable to use in my lap.

What are some good, cheap lapdesks?

How does this one look --> http://www.amazon.com/Logitech-Note...3?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1253249056&sr=1-3


$30, not bad. Reviews seem pretty good.

What do you guys think??

Don't bother with the cooling pads with fans in them, they usually won't do much to help the temperature. They'll decrease it by a few degrees, but it really isn't worth it IMO. And don't get one of the cooling pads that has rubber that touches the bottom of the computer like this one, as they will cause marks on the bottom of your laptop. I'm talking from experience here .

IMO get something like this or this. No fans, no noise and no rubber to mar your laptop and you'll get the benefits of a cooler running Mac by having it raised from your lap

I kind of like the look of this one from Logitech. It's very modern and sleek looking, just like the MBP.

Thanks for the tips! The logitech is a tad pricey, but I read enough reviews to sell me on it.

One plus is that I like to do homework while sitting in bed/on the couch, so the hard plastic surface will be perfect for that!

Do ya'll happen to know of anywhere I can get it for cheaper than $40?
