Logitech Speaker Lapdesk N700 Easy on the Lap, Music to Your Ears

Logitech shares with us today a new laptop cooling device the Speaker Lapdesk N700. This is a heftier version of those laptop cooling pads with USB powered fans that elevate your laptop and actively cool it. The Lapdesk will make for the perfect dorm-buddy with a comfy padded insulating foam cushion to keep you cool and your PC in place along its 20 inch long surface. The N700 also has a pair of speakers that feed from an internal USB sound card. These side mounted speakers are pretty small but should definitely be a boost for any tiny netbooks for sure. The sound system should be auto-detected by PC and Mac computers without the need for any driver disks.

Since both fan and sound card are powered by the same USB cord, Logitech includes control buttons to either turn off the audio or fan portions of the Lapdesk individually. This not only enhances their functions, but can also reduce power draw and increase battery life. There's also a handy volume controller as well. The Logitech Speaker Lapdesk N700 should launch next month for about $80.
