Laptop Car Cradle

My mothers side of the family lives in Connecticut and we go up there fairly frequently. This usually entails piling my parents, brother, and I into a car after everyone gets home from work and making the substantial drive up there in the dark.

The problem with this is that generally my brother and I read on trips to keep us busy. Its hard to read in the dark without giving your eyes serious issues. So instead we have taken to folding down one of the middle seats in the minivan, strapping my laptop to it via a circuitous use of the seat belt, and watching DVDs.

Something like this might be a better alternative. It lets you hang a laptop from the front seats of the car for just this purpose. Seems like a good idea to me.
