if you travel alone, how about putting the lappy a little away, say in front of the other seat, and using a wireless keyboard. saving your vital organs as well millions of your little sammys.

of course in long run ur neck is going to complain.

Dont ask me where I got it. my wife found it. she bought it; i assume she was expecting coffee in bed. I had other plans. :-)
