Ergotron To Ease Notebook Users’ Pain
Posted on Sep 14, 2008 | Comments 0
Ergotron has rolled out a stand and a wireless keyboard and mouse combo to help folks use good ergonomics…even with back- and wrist-destroying notebook computers.
Those tiny screens are always at a bad angle, the keyboards are atrocious, and, let’s face it: the only time anyone really wants to use one of those hot plates on their lap is outside in the dead of winter.
Many of them hunch down over their screens, wrists bent at funny angles as they try to do something productive.
So does display mounting and peripheral maker Ergotron, which has announced its new Neo-Flex Notebook WorkBase, along with a Wireless Keyboard and Mouse.
The Neo-Flex Notebook WorkBase is designed to elevate a notebook’s screen to a height that encourages godo ergonomics, and the Wireless Keyboard and Mouse are intended to let users have proper data entry gear…and anyone who’s used a notebook keyboard for any length of time knows how vital that can be.
“Combine any laptop you own with the Neo-Flex Notebook WorkBase, and you’re ready for the most productive laptop computing of your life,” said Ergotron CEO Jane Payfer, in a statement.
“We know users around the globe are hunched and crunched over their laptops when they’re on the road. But when they’re back home, we can inject a little comfort and way more productivity back into their lives.”
The Neo-Flex stand is based on Ergotron’s Notebook/Projector Lift Stand, and features height adjustment, a six-inch range of motion, and can hold up to 25 pounds.
The Wireless Keyboard and Mouse use a USB-based 2.4 GHz transceiver for an operational range over 30 feet; the keyboard features four programmable hot keys and the mouse offers a 1,000 dpi resolution. Combined, however, they run off four AAA batteries.
