We have seen a barrage of accessories for notebooks these past few years, and we are now we are seeing an interesting trend where people are using their notebooks almost entirely at home or as desktop replacements. Logitech’s new range of notebook stands, bags, and USB hubs caters to these users as well as traditional road warriors.
These new products include two Logitech Alto notebook stands, the Logitech Kinetik notebook bags, the Logitech Premium 4-Port USB Hub for Notebooks and the Logitech Cordless Number Pad for Notebooks.
Logitech’s Managing Director for Australia and New Zealand, Marco Manera said, “Although notebooks were originally designed for mobile professionals, today, we know that a broad range of people are buying them instead of traditional desktop PCs. The days of thinking that there is only one type of notebook user – the road warrior – are gone. We recognise that each notebook user has a specific set of needs and deserves a shopping experience that’s customised to meet those needs.”
Alto Notebook Stands

Logitech’s family of Alto notebook stands help make the notebook experience more comfortable. The new Logitech Alto Connect and Logitech Alto Express raises the laptop display to a more optimal viewing height and distance, and creates a space for a comfortable, full-size keyboard and mouse. The notebook is elevated to minimise contact with the uncomfortable heat generated by a notebook PC and improve cooling-fan circulation.
Kinetic Notebook Cases

Logitech’s two new notebook cases – the Logitech Kinetik 15.4 Backpack and the Logitech Kinetik 15.4 Briefcase – offer a fresh take on the traditional notebook case. The Kinetik 15.4 Backpack and Kinetik 15.4 Briefcase both feature an exo-shell casing that helps protect the laptop from damage, and a contoured back panel, which conforms to the back. A unique compartment design provides organised bays for devices, and instant, easy access to the laptop and other equipment. Made from lightweight, durable materials, these notebook cases are easy to carry and built to last.
