How about a customized “Handstand” for your iPad? I’ve been trying one out.
This is a new way to handle and hold your favorite tablet. They’re made for both the iPad and iPad 2. I’ve just started using the Handstand which is made by Hub International. Some of my first impressions include that it’s very sturdy and light weight. The strap stretches to fit your hand and helps you keep a firm grip on your iPad. I’m thinking this would be a good for those of you who may be considering using your iPad for some field scouting or to carry around in the cab of your truck or combine.
HandStand allows you to keep your hand in a comfortable position while turning the iPad for best viewing. It becomes an extension of your body as well as your mind. Hold it effortlessly, spin it portrait or landscape, display the screen to others — work, watch or play effortlessly. You’ll do more with your iPad and get more value out of your investment.
Hub International was founded in 2010 and the Handstand is their first consumer product. Founder Jaime Smith is currently president of Ritter Chemical, national distributor of high quality agrochemicals.

This looks like another tool that makes life a little easier when using new technology. Gadget geeks like me really like this stuff.
Interesting concept. It may make my iPad easy to use in the field, but would it make it so thick that it ceases to be uber convenient? Hmmm … would love to try it and find out!
Chuck,
I just had a vendor give us two IPads and I’d love to have a Handstand to help me scout and do GIS work in the field while working as a Precision Ag Specialist for the JR Simplot Company. Also, I’d really love to see what apps may be available to use at our cattle chute at our family ranch. The handstand would be really helpful there too.

Handstand looks like a very useful product.
Looks neat. Would love to try it.
Cool, must-have accessory, huh?
Will it work with the Otterbox Defender series? Was thinking of similar Otterbox Latch however it don’t do handstands;-(
Oh this would be cool, would love to try this out!

At first this Handstand looks very helpful but I like the case that protects the ipad. Don’t know if the handstand is so useful that I would give up the case but am willing to give it a try.
Just on my way out the door to buy an iPad … will definitely keep this in mind!
