Digital camera reviews of Logitech Alto Cordless Notebook Stand
Digital camera Review: Broke down after 18 months
Summary: 2 Stars
I never write reviews, only read them, but I felt I should share this experience for the sake of potential buyers...
I was really happy with this at first--the set-up gave me much better working ergonomics and flexibility with the keyboard. But one by one things started breaking down--first, the keyboard (as another reviewer described) started randomly repeating letters as if it were stuck, then only worked intermittently (no--it was not the batteries, these were replaced).
Then a strange problem--the calculator "bug"--this was super strange, one day the calculator function on my laptop kept popping up over and over to 700 windows...making it impossible to work at all. My husband scoured the internet from his laptop for a solution and discovered that it happens occasionally to a number of PC users but was NOT a virus. Finally one person wrote that they unplugged their Logitech USB mouse and it went away. My mouse was not the problem; as soon as I unplugged the Logitech cordless stand from the laptop I have never had the problem again. I am very grateful my husband dug and dug on forums until one person happened to figure this out.
I am really disappointed this product did not live up to my original experience; I will be contacting Logitech warranty services to see if they will honor the warranty and repair it at least.
Digital camera Review: Buena eleccion!!
Summary: 5 Stars
Cuando lo compre no me acostumbraba a usarlo, luego pense que provocaria problemas de calentamiento en mi dell de 17", pero no fue asi.
Creo que es mejor comprar este alto cordless que el otro que tiene el teclado pegado. hay mas espacio y el portatil queda mas ajustado. no es recomendable para los portatiles que tienen salidas de audio por el frente. En mi caso dell tiene las salidas de audio al lado derecho.
Lo recomiendo. Estoy feliz por mi compra.
Digital camera Review: Disappointed in seller
Summary: 1 Stars
I was so excited to receive my new laptop accessories but was sorely disappointed after trying to assemble them. I could not get it to work and after calling Logitech to see what I was doing wrong, they determined the device was faulty and I should return in to the seller. Only the seller would not take it back-- the receipt reveals you must return to Logitech! Seems shady to me. Luckily, the nice folks at Logitech were willing to refund me.
But I am still stuck with this useless plastic mess now.
Digital camera Review: Doesn't work for all laptops
Summary: 2 Stars
Be warned - if you own a laptop that has headphone/microphone ports in the front of the laptop, this stand will not work. There is no way to plug an external headphone/mic into the front-based ports. That's kind of a major oversight on the part of Logitech. Very annoying - my wife now cannot use Skype on her laptop because of this issue.Digital camera Review: Excellent Product and Value
Summary: 4 Stars
This is my second Alto in two years and I am very pleased with the product. At its new, low price (under $50) it is an excellent value. I use it for a desktop replacement laptop which mostly stays in my home office but, which I can quickly disconnect and take on the road when needed.
Pros: Easy to set up & use. It also allows you to set your laptop screen at approximately eye level and gives you a full-size wireless keyboard with 10-key numeric pad, making it an excellent product for a laptop mostly used in a static role. In addition, it provides two additional USB ports for computer accessories, eliminating the need for a separate USB hub.
Cons: Slightly fragile - my first unit stopped working after being shipped overseas for an extended business trip. I couldn't figure out what was wrong with it and I was unable to reach Logitech until after the warranty expired. Also, the stand is not adjustable so the screen can only be set in one position. You have to adjust your work surface or chair to get the screen to be at the perfect height.
Overall: Excellent product that performs as advertised and is well worth the low price.
