Hi sherpaj,
Rather than wait for your clarification, I did a little research
through your previous questions and found that you are indeed in the
US (92111 to be exact), so I will post what I have found.
Yes, there are products designed just for the problem you describe –
blocking sun glare on a laptop when you are using it outdoors. These
products are known as sun shades, privacy screens, visors, or hoods.
Here are some companies that sell such products for laptops. For each,
I have walked through the order process (up to the part where I had to
input my credit card) in order to find out what types of shipping they
offer. I have indicated for each whether or not they offer Fedex or
similar overnight shipping.
I have also provided you with prices to simplify your selection
process.
