    I just ordered my M17x R3 and was looking for some suggestions on a laptop stand to use on my couch.

    I need a stand that can be used with the recliner out, so I need a stand that can swivel over the arm rest on the end of couch.

    I also want the stand to have area to use a wireless mouse which makes finding one more difficult.

    ------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Here are a few links on some that I have found.
    I also attached photos on the three I found.

    1st.
    Lounge-tek: Buy Now

    Nice, prices range from 100 to upper 300.

    2nd.
    Apoio Mesa e Suporte Multi Articulado para Notebook
    Looks like it would work, but I'm in US, and this is a European site and also is 280 bucks.

    3rd.
    Amazon.com: Standers Able Tray: Health & Personal Care

    I like this one as long as it will reach over my armrest on side, plus can use as tray for eating which is a plus and price isn't bad.
    I know this is for the elderly but it looks like it would work.
    -----------------------------------------------------------------------

    Vote on which you like best.
    The photos are in order, 1st photo being #1 and so on.

    Any suggestions on other products are very much appreciated. :)

    I'm not sure option #3 can hold the m17x and have space for a mousepad. If money were no issue I'd go for #2 with the detachable mousepad, otherwise #1.

    A few 2x4's some ply-wood and nails, your golden!

    Honestly though...

    #1 looks really nice...

    Get a tv tray table thingy (the thing you put your tv dinner on while at the couch). It's like 9bucks at walmart. That's what I use when I'm sitting on my bed. Otherwise, it's fine on a boardgame box or a textbook while in bed ;)
