Comments on: Logitech’s New Comfort Lapdesk http://blog.logitech.com/2008/12/08/logitech-comfort-lapdesk/ Insights from Logitech employees into our products, technologies and the digital lifestyle Sat, 21 Nov 2009 01:07:29 -0600 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.6 hourly 1 By: schevalley http://blog.logitech.com/2008/12/08/logitech-comfort-lapdesk/comment-page-1/#comment-14186 schevalley Tue, 01 Sep 2009 15:24:51 +0000 http://blog.logitech.com/?p=525#comment-14186 Hi Ivan, The Comfort Lapdesk is not designed to be used with a mouse -- it\'s intended to be a surface where you can place your laptop when you\'re relaxing on your sofa, on the floor or in bed so you can be more comfortable. For this to be the case, however, your notebook needs to be placed in the center of the lapdesk - otherwise it would be off balance. Best, Simone Hi Ivan,

I love this product, but my still can feel computer heat. I think that a combined product would be a great hit!

There is one small annoying problem: I can't use my Logitech BT laser mouse on the surface (it doesn't reflect the laser beam). Was this a simple mistake in engineering? Or are there other arguments for using the shiny white surface instead of a matte colored one? Do you plan to sell a kind of adhesive folio to compensate for this drawback? Thanks!

Good thing my purchase of the product from the Amazon USA site has not gone wasted. This is not the first time nor will it be the last time that a distributor in Canada has dictated what specifically to order and offer for the Canadian market rather than simply supply what the manufacturer has produced. The result are selected products that are old rather than recent introductions. And they wonder why sales are low. In any case, hope you find a better distributor in the future to help expand your sales margin for Logitech products.

Unfortunately, it is not being carried in Canada, although it's very helpful to have proof of interest here so that we can continue to make a case for it with our Canadian distributors. Apologies, Simone Hi all,

I’ve finally tracked down the answer re: distribution in Canada, and I’m sorry to say that it is not a good one. Unfortunately, it is not being carried in Canada, although it’s very helpful to have proof of interest here so that we can continue to make a case for it with our Canadian distributors.

Apologies, Simone

I would love to know which dealers will be carrying or has ordered this product so we know where exactly to obtain it in this country. As for me, I had to unfortunately purchase from Amazon.com and I'm currently in the process of having it shipped to me. A rather expensive option at this point with the exchange rate conversion, shipping fee and tax. I will be blogging about this lack of product availability. Also, I'm curious to know why it's easier to have the product available first to Europe and USA and miss the boat for Canada? I know we're not a big enough market, but being right beside the USA should help a little bit to give us a few stocks of the product along with other Logitech product shipments in the country.
