From: zoara on 14 Jun 2010 08:16 Hannah's after an iPad stand. Because she doesn't know how she's going to end up using it yet, we don't want to spend huge amounts. I've seen people using paper copy holders http://j.mp/argJdN and business card holders http://j.mp/dt0HSE but these are all USAian ("Just pop into OfficeDepot"). Anyone found any cheap and cheerful stands that hold the iPad reasonably stable in landscape view? I'm only asking to save myself having to wander round Staples or whatever trying things out. -z- -- email: nettid1 at fastmail dot fm

Other than that, a plate holder from eBay or a hardware store -- Woody |
