The iChair combines a case with a stand for iPhone and iPad

by Mike Schramm (Jan 12th, 2011)

One of my favorite things about shows like CES is hearing stories about products straight from the vendors themselves. Not everyone has a product as flashy as the Sphero or as attention-grabbing as the hot new tablet computers. Some of the vendors in the booths are just people trying to sell cases. ...

Bluelounge's Nest iPad stand on display at CES 2011

by Mike Schramm (Jan 6th, 2011)

One of the first things we did on the show floor here at CES today was stop by the Bluelounge booth. The company was showing off its latest product, called the Nest, an iPad stand due to sell for US$14.95 when it arrives in stores later on this year. There are plenty of iPad stands here at CES (and ...

iPad deals: QVC offers iPad bundle at a nice price

by Mike Schramm (Dec 9th, 2010)

Shopping channel QVC, of all places, has a pretty good iPad deal going on right now. It's offering up Apple's magical and revolutionary device (in a 16GB Wi-Fi version) along with a ton of accessories for US $749. In that price, you get the dock connector cable, a silicon sleeve and stand, a clear ...

SNES controller and N64 console turned into iPad docks

by Mike Schramm (Dec 3rd, 2010)

Etsy user Geekunique sent along some links to these great pictures of old school Nintendo gaming units turned into iPad and iPhone docks. Above, you can see a Super Nintendo controller fashioned into a working iPhone 4 dock, and he's also got a Nintendo 64 console (though unfortunately it's the ...

iPhone photographers, get your Glif on with new tripod mount

by Michael Rose (Nov 27th, 2010)

It's a local-boys-make-good story for the Internet age: two New Yorkers brainstorm an idea for the kind of iPhone 4 tripod mount/stand they'd want to buy. They put their design on Kickstarter with the intention of raising US$10,000 in ramp-up funding. With a snazzy prototype video and the attention ...

Limited edition Joule and Vapor cases from ElementCase

by Victor Agreda, Jr. (Oct 27th, 2010)

We've drooled over the Joule, a classy metal iPad stand before, and the Vapor iPhone 4 case is one of my favorite iPhone cases. That said, they are not what you would call inexpensive. Nevertheless, the latest models to roll off their custom shop floor are even more exclusive, as limited-edition ...

Twelve South joins the fray of high-end iPad cases

by Dave Caolo (Aug 16th, 2010)

Twelve South got our attention in January with the beautiful BookBook case for the MacBook Pro. Now they've done it again by offering a BookBook case for the iPad. The BookBook case resembles a vintage leather bound book with a hard cover and bookmark ribbon. It's a real standout among the huge ...

No Comment: LEGO iPad stand shows ingenuity, parsimony

by Michael Rose (Aug 16th, 2010)

We could say "Nice use of found materials in that iPad stand! It's a shame that the next person who tries to build out the LEGO City Truck is going to be short a few pieces, but that's the way the brick bounces sometimes." We won't, though, because this image is a genuine No Comment. P.S. ...

TUAW review and giveaway: MoviePeg for iPad

by Dave Caolo (Aug 6th, 2010)

Last April, I reviewed the original MoviePeg for the iPhone 3GS. It was a super little stand that I used every day. Today, I'm happy to have spent a week with the MoviePeg stand for iPad, and I'm even happier to give my test stand away to a lucky TUAW reader.* Design The MoviePeg is a ...

Luxo iMac makes killer iPad stand

by Dave Caolo (Jun 15th, 2010)

Among the iPad's superpowers is inspiring its owners to new heights of creativity. So far it has delighted a 100-year-old user, been wrapped in chocolate and spawned all sorts of DIY cases and stands. The latest effort we've seen is this G4 iMac-mounted beauty. Flickr user Rusty saw his busted G4 ...

"iPad in iBook" stand merges past and present

by Michael Grothaus (Jun 10th, 2010)

An enterprising Japanese iPad owner, who blogs under the name Dark General, decided to take matters into his own hands when he couldn't find an iPad stand that he liked. He took an old iBook G3 clamshell case and gutted it, replacing the LCD screen with the iPad and the iBook's keyboard with Apple's ...

Flickr Find: iPad in a Macintosh

by Mike Schramm (May 3rd, 2010)

Flickr user mapgoblin accomplished this (did he just stick it in the Mac, or did he cut a custom-designed slot for it to sit in?), but however it was done, just the act of combining the two devices gets a salute from us. Here's a thought: just get yourself an aquarium app, configure it to show on ...

MoviePeg: An awesome chunk of rubber

by Dave Caolo (Apr 27th, 2010)

OK, so it's actually a chunk of thermoplastic elastomer. That made for a poor title, though. The MoviePeg is an inexpensive, ridiculously useful iPhone stand from magneticNorth. It's been my companion for a week, and frankly, I couldn't love it more. Design The MoviePeg is a small rectangle ...

Need a stand for your iPad? Enter the Joule giveaway

by Victor Agreda, Jr. (Apr 19th, 2010)

Last week I took you on a quick tour of the Joule by ElementCase. Yes, it's a premium stand. So, if you aren't in the "premium" market and are getting along with your alternative-to-real-iPad-stands stand and you're happy with other options, just pass this post by. Personally, I thought the Joule ...

Review: Joule iPad stand by ElementCase

by Victor Agreda, Jr. (Apr 16th, 2010)

The iPhone cases from ElementCase have always impressed me. Made to last from sturdy materials, they are beautifully designed and a joy to use. I've used a lot of iPhone cases and after so many wound up treating my phone badly, I felt the case we covered a while ago did possibly the best job of ...
