"It doesn't matter how comfortable your bed usually is; it will become distressing the minute you try to prop yourself up into a work-accomplishing position. Same goes for airport terminals, most guest rooms, and outdoor parks in any season. \nStop trying to locate your office supplies in your pillows. Instead, try out (or at least be inspired by) one of these nine nifty portable office solutions. \n\n\n9 Handy Portable Offices\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n1. Kruikantoor\n\nNetherlands-based designer, Tim Vinke created this foam wheelbarrow office. Entrepreneurs can easily roll from workspace to workspace with two chairs, a table and a light. There's even storage space for files.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n2. BALT Fold-N-Go Workstation \nIf your office doubles as a guest room, dining room or living room -- or if you happen to live in a bootstrapped-startup-sized apartment, this fold-up office is for you. When open, the desk has a space for your computer, printer and keyboard. When folded, the workstation is only 4 1/2 inches wide and can easily slip under the bed or in a closet. \"No assembly required\" makes the deal even sweeter.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n3. Planet 3 Studios' Out-of-Box Workstation\n\nThis module is not one portable office, but two. Designed by a team from Mumbai, the 4x4x16 module wheels into place and unfolds using a single key. One desk with a keyboard tray and drawers pops out from each side of the box. You can get the design details from this YouTube video.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n4. Hip Office\n\nThis desk might not relate to every definition of the word \"hip,\" but it's a pretty creative solution for people who want to work 100% of the time. The desk is actually not intended for workaholics, but as an ergonomic solution to the health problems sitting in a desk all day can cause. Two pieces create a snug fit that allows the user to sit, stand or walk without leaving his or her work.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n5. Cart Desk\n\n\nWhat could be cooler than a roller backpack for adults? How about a roller backpack that doubles as a workstation?\nDespite dubious coolness, Cart Desk is indisputably practical for frequent air travelers. The cart is actually designed to fit through airplane aisles and fit in the overhead bins.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n6. Armoire Box Office\n\nSadly MyFab no longer seems to sell this compact office by designer Toshihiko Hazama, but we're hoping that somebody is inspired by the concept soon. Relatively affordable at $1,800, the cubicle and chair folded small enough to roll into a closet. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n7. I-Trunk\n\nThis office in a box by Pinel &amp; Pinel is delivered with a 20-inch iMac, a Creature Sound System and a color printer. Four drawers hold pens, paper and 10 leather files. If that's not fancy enough for you, consider the 51 color options for the trunk's all-leather exterior and its \"nickeled massive brass\" (we're not sure what that is, but it sounds fancy). \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n8. Louis Vuitton Office Trunk\n\n\nThe designer-obsessed need not fret. There is a portable office for you, too. This trunk by Louis Vuitton includes a coffee maker, TV and DVD player. All electronics work off of the grid -- the coffee pot is powered by a petrol can and the other electronics by a solar panel. This could come in handy if you ever take your Louis Vuitton office trunk on a camping trip.\nRegister Hardware reports that the trunk was commissioned by an unknown customer from China.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n9. IKEA PS Laptop Worktation\n\nIf the Louis Vuitton version is a bit excessive for your taste, you might consider the IKEA version. The box stores laptops with up to a 17-inch wide screen, locks for security (though it is a pretty portable box -- even when locked), and includes an elastic laptop strap for safety. That said, the $60 box is probably better as a space saver than a travel companion.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMore Tech Resources from Mashable:\n- 8 Classic Tech Sounds that Defined Our Digital World [VIDEOS]- 5 Gadgets that Broke New Ground in 2010 [Mashable Awards]- How a Physically Aware Internet Will Change the World- 10 Unique Headphones for Listening in Style- 10 Amazing Real Life Robots"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
