Whats wrong with it? There are people who spend most of their day in a vehicle and when stopped will work from their car. It's becoming a wireless world. 2 years ago I was on my way to New Orleans for our anniversary, just outside of shreveport I got an email on my phone that an important start up job on our mainframe had failed. At 5:30 in the morning from the front seat of my truck I VPN'd into my work network from my laptop. A desk to set my laptop on would have been pretty cool.

Are you familiar with the old 3 wolf T-shirt one?  That is the original one with funny customer reviews:  http://www.amazon.com/Three-Wolf-Moon-T-Shirt-Medium/dp/B000NZW3J8/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=apparel&qid=1258724182&sr=8-1

It seems like a useful idea when properly applied (read: used when stopped), but too many geniuses out there will get the idea to use it while in motion.  I hope whoever is manufacturing/selling them has a really good business insurance policy.  When someone innocent gets killed or maimed by an idiot misusing it, they will probably be getting a call from a personal injury attorney.

Yeah, as soon as there is a front end collision and the air bag goes off shoving it right into your lower rib cage. I'm sure you will think it is a great idea.

I mean if you are stopped in a rest area or have a job like I do where sometimes I just sit in a parking lot all night watching the cars it would be usefull. But, I got a desk that just popped into your cup holder and would swivel to where you needed it. Was $5 at Wal-Mart.

But, yeah it is a lawsuit waiting to happen! The comments were fantastic!

Wait Vtlion, why would you use this when stopped?  It wouldn't even make sense.

Jessie the 3 wolf moon shirt reviews aren't funny; they're true.  I get so much when I wear mine that I can't wear it on consecutive days...I get too tired.

I used to work in California. At lunch, I would often get fast food and eat under a large shade tree in the parking lot or at a nearby state park.

This would have come in handy.

P.S. Chicks dig cars that smell like IN-N-OUT burgers. :thumb:

Yeah, Xealot it would work for you because you do have some brains albeit sarcastic at times  :wink:   But, in the hands of the sheeple well,  :dunno_white:

Look here girlfriend...

"some brains"? I'll have you realize I'm the smartest person I know. If you don't believe me just ask me.

As far as being sarcastic...it occurs to me that you know nothing about me except what I post here...and half of that is lies meant to misdirect "them" when "they" show up on my front lawn at midnight in black helicopters...

Here are three things you may accept as ABSOLUTE truth...

1. I am THE most awesome person you have ever (or will ever) meet.
2. I own a GS500.
3. I'm biodegradable.

;)

See,

This is where you don't know me. I've met some pretty awesome people. So you got big shoes to fill there little feller. James Watson is one example of a person I have met!

Do ya know who that is without googling?

It's really not fair to take away one's ability to Google things Mary. According to my pc troubleshooting professor, "For today's A+ Techs, Google is your friend."  :D  I've allready come accross one issue with my PC that I was able to solve with Google. As far as James Watson is concerned, the name sounds familiar, maybe it's just one of those names.  :dunno_white:
