Yeah, I do that with my laptop. It does everything, and I can use it for hours without discomfort.

- pohl 16y agoI like to lay flat on my back - with my 14 month old son napping on my chest - watching some tech presentation video (or browsing, or even playing the LASW RTS. These are sublime moments that my laptop can't bring me.
- dablya 16y agoI'm having a hard time picturing this being comfortable (or more comfortable than having a laptop sitting next to you). Are you holding the tablet above your son the entire time? Don't your arms get tired?
- pohl 16y agoI had to watch myself do it because I had never noticed the specifics. Turns out it varies. Sometimes I'm holding it over him, but the weight is being transferred through my forearm to the sofa beside my body through one or both elbows. Other times my hand is just balancing it and little Henry's diaper-padded posterior is propping it up. I have a cover on it that flips behind the tablet,like one would fold a magazine cover behind a magazine, and sometimes I hold the thing with my index finger extended horizontally into this hinge, with a moment of force being applied by the side of the device into the palm of my hand. It's never been something I had given much though to. The idea of craning my neck and reaching my arms to operate a laptop on the table beside me strikes my as uncomfortable, though. To each their own, I guess.
