Buyer Reviews
Average Buyer Rating:  out of 5 stars

Customer Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - It's OK.
My laptop is one of the larger ones with a 17 inch screen so it does not work very well with it. ALthough I think if my laptop was smaller it would work better.



Customer Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Perfect for using on a train
I work on my laptop while travelling to and from work on a train, and the bone at the base of both of my hands has been getting sore from having to push down on the laptop to type and to use the touch pad. This notebook wrist rest is great, the gel is located in exactly the right spot to allow me to both type and use the touch pad, and it's rubbery material holds onto the laptop quite nicely.

The only annoying thing about it was in working out it's actual shape before buying it. It is actually one wide piece of rubber at the bottom, with the two wrist pads wrapping around on the top. Also, I had trouble getting hold of it here in Australia.

There doesn't appear to be anything else like it in the market, and I'm really happy with it.




Customer Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Not entirely effective
I ordered the wrist rest to alleviate pain from typing on my Dell Latitude D610. This does help - it tilts the keyboard to create a somewhat better angle. But it's not designed for thick laptops -- unlike in the picture, my rest lies flat against my keyboard -- the angle is not that dramatic, so my wrist position is still not ergonomically correct. And it doesn't have any noticeable impact when the laptop is on my lap -- it just raises the surface of my keyboard one half inch. The product isn't useless, but for serious wrist strain and a larger laptop I would recommend looking into alternatives.



Customer Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Carpal Tunnel Staved Off Once Again
After months of near constant typing on my Dell Latitude, my wrists showed signs of taking a serious beating.

A brief prayer to the Amazon gods of technology led me to discover Kensington's wrist rest.

Regular use for nearly two months has alleviated the strain I previously felt and, in fact, has improved my usability with laptop.

I always appreciate products that strengthen my relationship with the digital world.

Sales of semiconductors in November indicate that consumer products such as LCD (liquid crystal display) TVs, digital music players, and other devices sold well during the holidays, the Semiconductor Industry Association (SIA) said Monday.

November chip sales rose 2.3 percent year-on-year to $23.1 billion, the SIA said.

Unit demand has far outpaced last year. But falling chip prices have hurt industry revenue, the chip association said. For example, DRAM (dynamic RAM) bit shipments grew 25 percent in the three months through mid-December, but average selling prices have declined 20 percent over the same period.

The association also noted that rising energy prices and concerns about the sub-prime lending issue in the U.S. do not appear to have had a significant impact on consumer spending for the holidays, the SIA said. The group reiterated its forecast that worldwide semiconductor sales will reach a new record in 2007. But it will take a stronger than expected December selling season to reach the 3.8 percent growth goal the group had forecast earlier this year, the SIA said.

Investment banking firm Credit Suisse was not as optimistic as the SIA.

The November data was below normal seasonal trends, noted analyst John Pitzer, in a report on Monday. Even if December reaches its normal seasonal growth, 2007 industry revenue will only reach $255.7 billion, up 3.2 percent over last year. The growth percentage would fall short of the SIA's 3.8 percent target.

The slow November prompted Credit Suisse to lower its 2008 chip industry revenue forecast to 9.4 percent year-on-year growth, down from a previous target of 13 percent.
