Jotto Desk 1567 opinions?

Post by nmfire10 »

Any opinions on this? The price is right which is why I like it. I also like that you can remove the bulk of it in 20 seconds.

Kind of neat looking. Interesting though how reading the description they tell you "This no holes mount desk combines the best of the Jotto Desk . . ." then as you read, you see it gets screwed into the floor. (Until I read to the end, I was wondering how it could be mounted securely without holes.)

Aside from the interesting description, it does look like a great idea. If only I had use and room for such a thing . . .

Good luck.

If I had the spare cash I'd buy a used CF27 toughbook and mount it in my van, but I can't spare the $$$ now, nice idea though. Is it stury enough to hole the weight a laptop with all the trimmings though.

It looks like it is. That one is the "velcro" model. Their intention is for me to put velco on the bottom of laptop and on the tray. The model with straps is liek $60.00 more. HA! I will go get some big rubber bands or little bungie cords and do the same thing for 50 cents.

I ordered that Jotto Desk mount and a GPS reciever. For ly little trip to North Carolina this month, I plan to go as high tech as possible. With my cell phone, I have high speed internet acess too :)
