What's your favorite Lap Desk?

I'm looking to buy a lap desk for some laptop couch computing action. What are your favorite lap desks?

Duff-Man says...I personally use an iLap and have always found it comfortable and functional in many different positions - desk, couch, floor etc etc....oh yeah!

I just put the laptop on my lap.. hence why it's called a laptop.

Except they are being called notebooks* nowadays to get them off of people's laps. Between overheating your computer, burns and lowered sperm counts [1] [2] there isn't a good reason to set a notebook on your lap.

If you're looking for something reasonably priced that does the job (although not as stylish as the ilap) then there's the Targus Laptop Chill Mat.

If you don't mind the price, most people will recommend the iLap.

How does the iLap compare to a Griffin Elevator for desk use? Does it raise it enough?

Personally, I would much rather have the Elevator for desk use.
