My friend in Chicago said he works from his car now, and it got me thinking about mobile setups.

Totally agree, @bell.jessica! My hotspot cut out constantly.

Phone hotspots are great, but a lap desk in a car sounds pretty cramped for real work.

My cousin in Austin does the same thing. He just uses a phone hotspot and a lap desk. Seems to work for him.

Honestly, that setup sounds like a pain. A phone hotspot drains your battery so fast, and trying to type on a laptop balanced on your knees in a car is just asking for a sore back. I tried something similar once and the internet kept dropping every time a truck drove by. Maybe it works for checking email, but for any real focused work, I need a real table and a stable connection.
