That's too far away.

once the user is seated, he/she moves the stand closer,
so the stand is just in front of the knees...

Angry Birds is my favourite for such occasions.

nice idea

**ncinerate** · 09/25/2011, 05:03 PM

Honestly, I don't really understand the concept of on-toilet reading...

I go to the bathroom, and -go- to the bathroom. There really isn't time for reading. I sit down, do my business, clean up, and that's that. In, out, on my way.

Am I missing something? Do other people have to sit and wait for long periods of time for "things" to progress in there? Is there seriously time to sit and read or are you just sitting there enjoying the smell?

Well, me is sitting and enjoying my business all the time.
I really like to take a long session and staying on the toilet for a couple of minutes longer than necessary. I like the warmth of the TP/MacBook on my knees so its always a pleasure to chat on facebook, or surf on the internet while poo-ing.

cheers

In that case, it works. Is that a music stand?

**eblade** · 09/25/2011, 05:23 PM

Looks like a rather nice music stand, at that. *Another idea might be the "Dave" laptop stand available at Ikea, I got my gf one of those a few months ago, and she loves it for the laptop. *

i have to admit its nice to pick up on the way to the bathroom lol even if youre not in there long, no stand for me tho! lol

We had a similar thread going in a Pre Plus forum last year. I like to play games with either the TP or Pre2 while in there.

Seems an awful lot of bother to go to when you need a dump, I just hold mine in my hand (the TP) and read my book

**johncase3** · 09/25/2011, 05:39 PM

TMI...

**StevenC56** · 09/25/2011, 05:42 PM

Here I sit all broken hearted-Tried to order a Touchpad when the fire sale started............

**geekpeter** · 09/25/2011, 05:44 PM

just panic when your touchpad screen has a nice brown/tanned tint after a while, also that must be some good old bunged up issues you got

ill have mine with me when im having 2 of the 3 S's but i leave it near the door with the radio playing or something

On eBay an iPad I shopping carted, a fool and his money are soon parted.....

Thank God my sink is closer proximity wise and makes things very easy. Yes it has been done, watching video or otherwise and easier to do then hitting pause and coming back later.

Love my setup and actually also use the sink to hold my Palm Pre in safety just in case. Sorry...probably TMI, but I have clients who dropped their smartphones down the toilet which is VERY Expensive! Sorli....

**UCLAKoolman** · 09/25/2011, 06:39 PM

Too complicated.

Just SLATER.

**etphoto** · 09/25/2011, 06:54 PM

Maybe they should have advertise the TouchPad in the Exlax isle.*
