LapWorks’ Ergo-Safe Newsletter

Posted on 04 June 2007 by


I just received a newsletter from LapWorks, makers of the Aluminum Deskop Stand which I recently reviewed - and that my laptop is resting on as I type, and I thought it might be worth passing on… :-)

Greetings loyal readers and customers of LapWorks. It’s June already and we hope you’ve had a chance to visit our new website. It’s made completely from flash and you’ll be surprised how well it works. Check it out at www.laptopdesk.net.

Last month I said we’d report on the success of our Pink Ribbon Campaign for May. We had less than 10 people sign-on for us to make a donation for them. It’s apparent we did a poor job of promoting this event and the next time we will do better. [Note from Judie - totally not cool. Next time we'll promote it on Gear Diary, too!]

News Flash! We launch a new Laptop Desk next month called the Futura and we have to admit it’s the most stylish lap desk we have ever launched. (Some call it sexy.) We plan on offering a limited number in brightly painted color schemes. We’re dipping our toes in the fashion fountain to see if there’s interest. [Note from Judie - I am supposed to be getting a Futura, but no one said anything about "painted color schemes"! I wanna see!]

A quick reminder that Wendy the Ergonomist is still there for you and if you have any ergonomic questions about laptop computing, please drop her a line by clicking on the “Ask Wendy” link on this page.

The Newsworthy article below lists 12 simple steps to protect your online identity. Don’t miss it – it’s short and sweet but very good.

Thank you again for your loyalty and we invite you once more to share this newsletter with others who you believe might be interested in its contents. Thanks from the LapWorks team.

There was also a blurb at the bottom which said:

GREAT NEWS FLASH – due to the success of the Aluminum Desktop Stand, we are extending the special price offer of $59.95 through the end of June. So if you haven’t taken advantage of last month’s offer, it’s not too late. Order now and begin enjoying the benefits of ergonomic computing. Order today.

The monthly LapWorks newsletter “includes special offers and announcements of products to make using your laptop easier, safer and more productive, news on recent developments in mobile computing and updates to the Laptop Computer Care & Feeding Guide.” If you want to receive it, click here to subscribe.

I started Gear Diary on September 30, 2006, and my goal was that this not be an easily labeled site. We all have gear that we use daily – some of it electronic and some of it organic. I think it is fascinating to explore the equipment that makes our lives easier, more entertaining, more productive, and more manageable. My hope is that Gear Diary visitors will find this site to be a comfortable and friendly place to discuss interesting topics – and not only those that are tech related, as well as a location to discover various types of gear – whatever that term may end up implying – that they never knew existed. My specialty is in-depth reviews written in a layman’s terms, because everyone can understand technology, sometimes it just takes a little translating. +Judie Stanford
