So this isn't strictly necessary when using the Kindle, but it is DEFINITELY useful for using a laptop, which I assume most of us also have.Amazon dropped the price on Belkin cushtops from $49 -> $10.99. I already own two of these and they're really useful. Check it out (link if interested) (http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/re...23-54-9367-20/) if you ever want to have kids :thumbsup:Edit: btw, the cheaper price is in the box at right (from Amazon, rather than a 3rd party).
