Laptops are perhaps poorly named, as very few people have mobile PCs sitting on their actual laps. There are several reasons for this: laptops can bounce around awkwardly without a flat surface to sit on, overheating systems can singe your legs (or at least become uncomfortably hot), and most importantly, there's no place to put your mouse.
The typical lap desk is a simple slab of plastic, which serves its purpose, but also works just about as well as a basic cafeteria tray would. Logitech's new $29 Lapdesk N315 goes beyond that by adding an all-over rubberized surface, as well as a pull-out side tray for your mouse (or to hold snacks, we suppose).
The off-white surface measures 14.5 inches by 10.2 inches--a good fit for a standard 14- or 15-inch laptop bag.
