 Perfect accessory June 23, 2008
This item fits my portable laptop stand perfectly and the additional USB ports are great for my printer and speakers.
The Difference right out of the Box May 4, 2008

After getting this contraption in the mail, i could hardly contain my excitement. I have seen this product in a retail store and they were charging over 140 dollars for it (I don't live within the continental United States), so i decided to wait and order this from Amazon instead. Upon set-up, this system more than gracefully supported the heft of my 15.4" wide-screen laptop (I have a Fujitsu-Seimens AmiloPro, whose weight resembles that of a big bag of rocks), and i sat there for five whole minutes just admiring how it changed my computing environment.
I do graphic design, word-processing and programming and this laptop stand literally shifted my world in the right direction. It raised my laptop to the point where i seriously doubted its stability, but once everything was proven secure, i marveled at how comfortable the severe angle was (I didn't know my laptop's screen could bend that far back).
The keyboard is also a magical little thing, apart from the obvious features like it being wireless, the keys are actually solidly made and they handle like a dream. The key's feedback upon pressing is silent and strangely comforting on the joints, especially if you intend to spend hours typing away. There is virtually no delay in terms of the key's translation on the screen. It also has a bar under it (for an angled keyboard) instead of those irritating little feet that collapse when you type too hard. This keyboard is as solid as a rock.
But again, its charm is really from the way they designed the stand to accommodate the best possible viewing angle for your laptops. I felt the difference right out of the box.
Less one star for having too few USB slots at the back (There are 3). One more USB and a 3.5mm jack would be 5 stars for me (since the lip covers my notebook's 3.5mm jack and SD Card slot).
Nice stand April 2, 2008
The product is nice.
Maybe just quite a big and take space on your desk, but the keyboard is very functional and the stand keep your laptop good position to work.
Just what I needed! February 28, 2008
This was exactly what I was looking for. I needed something to get my laptop "out of my lap" and onto my desk and the keyboard allows me to use a pull-out keyboard tray also. This has done wonders for my neck and my wrists!
Notebook Stand - YES!, Docking Station - NO! February 25, 2008

One of the first questions you need to ask yourself is... are you primarily looking for a notebook docking station (port replicator) or a notebook stand to more comfortably work. While this IS a nice stand and keyboard, a docking station it is not. Yes, you do get 3 USB ports (really 2 additional USB ports since you lost one plugging this guy in).
True the angle of the stand isn't adjustable, but I don't think you would really need or want to adjust it anyway, so I don't see this as a drawback.
For notebooks with front ports it would be a pain because they will become inaccessible without some custom workaround. For anyone that has front loading CD-DVD drives, this would probably turn into a fatal flaw.
I like the keyboard. I prefer the smaller function keys that it has. I tend to dislike keyboards that go overboard with too many keys. I want a clean keyboard, not the command console of the starship Enterprise. The keys on the keyboard are nice. They feel solid, but they are perhaps a smidgen too firm and the key labels are a tad on the small side. The wrist rest has a slightly rubberized coating that I like.
For me, the hugely improved ergonomics more than made up for the steep price tag. I used to always get a sore neck and shoulders from hunching over my notebook. Now I naturally sit more comfortably.
I'm kind of glad that it didn't come with a mouse. I rarely like BOTH the mouse AND the keyboard in combos. I prefer to just use my own mouse.
Overall, I really like this as a notebook stand and keyboard. The package doesn't say anything about being a docking station because it is not one.
