NAB2012 is just around the corner, and we're planning on doing some onsite video editing. It gets a bit crowded during the conference so i've been shopping for some type of mobile table and chair for our editor. Portable chairs are fairly easy to come by, but finding the right mobile desk is still the challenge. So far, of the ones i've seen, i'm leaning towards the Tripad. Extending parts of the Tripad allow for a mouse and cup holder. Albeit a bit expensive at almost $90 dollars, it mounts easily to a roller bag or tripod, both of which we always have during event coverage.

@Joe, I really hate to agree with you...but it's a sad truth that can't be ignored.
Joe Rodriguez
Not to take away anything from the US, but I can't wait until there is a chinese ripoff of this product. $99?? I mean come on!

I saw the Tripad circulating on the blogs haha
I intend to use the Quik Lok when I shoot tethered and most of the times when I am shooting tethered it's on a tripod.. so this would've been cool as I already have a decent tripod.. sigh. haha
