Hi Robyn

We are using 2 Super Calf 12 notebook trolleys from PCLOCS
(www.pclocs.com.au)
The trolleys are heavy and robust but not stable if they are not on level or
near level ground. We have had the trolleys move far and wide around the
school and are fairly mobile, but cannot tackle stairs.

I have also used the trolleys marketed through Optima, but I feel the super
calf trolleys are a better investment because they are more robust and more
secure.

Our power packs are cable tied into the trolley storage spaces so that the
power packs cannot be removed from the trolley and cannot be caught in the
mechanism. The only difficulty we have is getting teachers to ensure
students plug the power supply into the notebook at the end of each lesson.

We also have a wap on each trolley, which plugs into a network point so that
if wireless connection is a bit dodgy, the trolley has no problem with
wireless access.

I hope this is of assistance
