how does this work when using it in your lap?

It has a part in the back to give it that angle when using on your lap...I use mine like this all the time with no problems.

Using this in your lap is not ideal, but it is significantly better with the Elsse folio rather than using the surface without the case - mainly because the supporting triangle that is created by the Elsse folio has a bottom to it, while the 'kickstand' on the surface does not. It more or less just takes getting used to, finding the right balance and all.

Not very good. Just for the fact the angle it sits at, makes it really worse if you don't have a keyboard. Your wrists start to hurt because of the angle if you are using the touch screen keyboard or swipe controls. But it will sit in your lap. Now if your laying down say like watching a movie then it works rather well for it to sit on your chest. Hope this helps.

It is doable, but not comfortable, but there really isn't and case for this that would work well sitting in your lap, unless you have a type cover

No, this is small and would not stay on your lap.It is meant to go on a flat surface to hold the tablet.It works fine but it's not going to work in your lap.

It connects directly to your phone... it is in essence a larger screen for your phone with a small key board.. without physically connecting your phone to it... it does nothing. SO it has the same connection as your phone. No data on you phone, it turns into a non connected lap top... data on your phone... you can do just what your phone does...

Works great with my mini iPad. Takes some getting used to. Cannot be used on your lap as it folds in half.

No this isn't really the accessory for lap use. It's more for desktop use. It docks the tablet upright so it sits like a screen on your desk, but it probably wouldn't be good at all for using your tablet in your lap while docked with this accessory.

I have never used it on my lap. I always use it on a table or desk, however I might agree with your observation. I don't believe isthat this is the best one to put in your lap.

Yes. It is fine on your lap and you don't really feel the heat. I bought mine a few years ago and it doesn't work anymore (the cable has a short) but I still use it in my lap.

It should work well on your lap or on a flat surface, because it's rigid enough. Also, the back folds down to make a stand, when you have it on a flat surface.

I have absolutely NO idea. The only thing I'm sure of is that it does work very well. It makes having a laptop comfortable enough to have on your lap.

I haven't found this to be the case. Some people may not be allowing their laptop to air while it's on their laps. They are covering up the sides with blankets or pillows prohibiting full vetalation. For any computer, overheating could be the case in this situation. I recommend this laptop if you are looking to buy it. It is the perfect size and functions really well. :)And like the guy said below, I have not found the Internet to have any issues. He very well could be having this problem but I haven't experienced this.

Sorry I am not that literate on these things, all I can tell you is it worked fine as a computer for my wife and she has no complaints regarding the lap top. The seller was quick to answer any questions and very honest about the product, and responded within 24 hours...hope this helped!

I have no trouble w/using it on my lap. I don't bother w/other hard surfaces when I use my laptop and the cooling board. I wonder if others know that using it on your lap is oriented one way, while using it on hard surface, it should be oriented the other. This prevents the prop from getting in your way or digging into treasured body parts. I think it's very high quality and well designed.

No it doesn't tip over on my lap. I think it is balanced based on the angle of the iPad and the placement of the magnetic strip. if you tip it too far forward the iPad will tip towards you. That has only happened when I'm using my lap tray with an added pillow tilting it forward while laying down in bed.

Yes, I use it on my lap all the time. It seems very secure to me, and I have it in some pretty weird positions sometimes depending on what kind of chair I'm in and what other things I have piled around me as I work. It never topples or even feels like it might topple.

it doesnt take batteries, usb plugs in the computer. I will caution you though, it is not made for using your laptop on your lap. it needs a hard surface to sit on.

I have a laptop, a large flat-screen monitor, a keyboard and a mouse on mine and there is no noticeable movement when I'm working. But if you push on it, it will move a little. If you plan to use it for something other than its intended purpose with some equipment that is vibration-sensitive I hesitate to predict what will happen.

No problem. I use it landscape mode and portrait mode. In fact, I use it landscape the most. If I needcto charge my unit, I use portrait so the plug is free! Best lap support I have found. I wish it came with a light and a hookup for earbuds. Not complaining, just sharingvidea.
