The DokuMount is ideal for architects, engineers, anyone who needs to access and refer to paper copies while working at the computer. No more bending over a table cluttered with needed reference materials!

Its innovative Universal FlexMount provides mounting configurations which include through the desk, on the desk edge and wall mount.

The GoogolBoard, a New Modern Styling for Large Key Keyboards

ErgoCanada.com is pleased to be carrying the GoogolBoard and GoogolBoard EZ, large key keyboards which feature sculpted rounded keycaps (like one finds on most 'conventional' keyboards) and a more familiar layout. In addition, these keyboards offer access to windows keys and are native USB.

The Googolboard uses large, easy-to-read brightly colored keys with white legends to create a fun, creative, educational environment for any child. The brightly colored 1” keys distinguish between numbers, letters, and symbols for easy typing and learning.

The GoogolBoard EZ uses large easy to read black legends on white 1" keycaps, and will unobtrusively blend into any modern office.

The mechanical keyswitches respond easily to gentle finger pressure, making typing easy and more comfortable, while still providing positive tactile feedback. The oversized keys make either version of this product ideal for individuals with visual impairments or difficulty in targeting keys on regular keyboards. This keyboard is a native USB device and includes a PS/2 adapter, and functions on both PC and Mac (OS 10.3 or higher).

Sun-Flex offer two styles of durable document / book holders

ErgoCanada.com is pleased to be carrying the CopyFlex II and CopyFlex III products from Sun-Flex in Sweden. These inline metal document holders provide a more heavy-duty solution to document management than most traditional document holders on the market, filling the space from the bottom of your monitor to the top of your keyboard.

Both products include:

• An adjustable aluminum strip for rule guide, with magnifying function built in
• Heavy duty enough to accommodate non-reference books (i.e. spines under 2")
• Rubber coated surface to prevent paper from slipping off
• Top quality slides with ball bearings ensure easy movement with friction knob to lock the slide in place
• Easel is 15" Wide x 7" High
• Can be used for occasional writing tasks

The CopyFlex II (pictured at right, above) allows you adjust the angle of the easel to seven different angles, and the height of the easel to 8 different positions. And when not in use, you can store it in an integrated 2.5" or 80 mm monitor riser which is a robust, varnished sheet-metal box.

The CopyFlex III (pictured at left, below) is not storable, making it more appropriate for situations where the monitor should not be raised from the desk surface. The base of the unit still is under the monitor, but only raises the monitor 2 mm. The angle is adjustable as is the height, and it weighs 7 lbs.

Lapworks Laptop Desk 2.0 - a Foldable, Portable, Laptop Accessory

ErgoCanada.com now has the Laptop Desk 2.0 in stock, the only lap desk product on the market that easily converts from a laptop tray to a desktop stand for your notebook!

In the desktop application, you can choose from one of five typing angles. Positioning the keyboard in an incline can assist in reducing shoulder and back strain (it helps to lean back in your chair). At full extension, the support arm raises the screen level by 3 1/4" closer to eye level reducing neck strain. Of course it is always recommended to use an external keyboard and mouse when using your laptop to ensure ideal ergonomic posture.

With normal use of your notebook on your desktop, you will often hear the cooling fan turn on to cool the computer. With the Laptop Desk 2.0, you will hear the fans turn on much less often. Ventilation channels in the product cool your notebook through convection and contact with the no-slip rubber surfaces cool your notebook by conduction by at least 15-20%.

The versatile Laptop Desk is lightweight and folds for easy storage (Folded Size: 11.13" x 10.69" x 0.63") in your laptop bag (Weight: 1 lb 6 oz). When you're away from a desk or fixed work surface, simply unfold the Laptop Desk for a wide, stable and comfortable platform of super-strong polycarbonate material right on your lap (Unfolded Size: 20.56" x 11.13" x 0.31").

MicroDesk by Good Use Company is now available in Canada!

ErgoCanada.com is proud to announce that we are the exclusive distributor in Canada of the Good Use Company line of Writing Surface products. The Standard Microdesk (at right) is a clear, plastic sloping writing surface with adjustable non-slip feet that fits over the top of your keyboard. It is made of heavy-duty plastic which provides a solid stable writing surface, and includes a line guide so it can be used as a document holder. In addition, it is heavy-duty enough to handle even the heaviest book. It is intended for single-height worksurfaces and features a sloped design. The Step Microdesk (at left) is designed for dual level desks or desks with a pull-out keyboard drawer or articulating keyboard arm / tray. It has a 'step' or cutout to allow it to fit over the edge of the higher worksurface, and is the same height at the front as at the back. The writing surface on both products is 22" x 12" deep, and the front height is adjustable between 3" and 5". The rear of the unit on the Standard Microdesk is adjustable between 5.5" and 7.5", and on the Step Microdesk between 3" and 5" (as the surfaces are different heights, the unit doesn't need to provide the slope). Both units include a non-slip line guide to hold papers in place and help with viewing documents.
	Benefits of the MicroDesk include: Stops your body twisting, when writing to the side of the keyboard, as your papers are placed directly in front of you. Stops you reaching over papers to get to your keyboard. Has a clear surface which allows you to see the keys. Utilizes space between keyboard and monitor screen.
Before - without the Microdesk, your body twists when you use a keyboard and work with papers at the same time.			After - with the Microdesk shown with ruler in use, your body stays in perfect alignment for both keyboard and writing tasks.
