Christmas Present for me

Knee Defender

Knee Defender - protect against reclining seatbacks on airplanes - save more legroom - can help you guard against economy class syndrome - thrombosis - DVT

This nifty little device would pay for itself pretty quickly!! Just make sure you don't forget it and get it in place before the person in front leans back your way.

Here, we present results and observations from a controlled, laboratory study of refinding information found on the web.
