Griffin Loop iPad stand

[testcard]

Received mine yesterday and very pleased so far, although it did occur to me that Griffin could have made the Loop 25% smaller whilst still retaining the same stability.

When I was at the Apple store last week I took at look at the "Loop...." and ruled it out. Too big, not portable enough. For just quickly sticking my iPad into a stand I use a Gibson 3-wire stand (Amazon) and this folds up nicely for transport, or I can now use my recently-received Moviepeg holders, which are also transportable.

I don't believe the Loop was ever intended to be a stand for being carried around. It was made to have that 'artsy' look, that would fit in with other modern looking Apple products.

Like you I have a few of those wire stands that I purchased from my local arts & crafts store. Great for portable propping of the iPad for viewing, but not so great for playing Plants Vs Zombies or doing anything needed for a steady ( such as typing ) reclined position.

The Griffin Loop has become one of my favorite iPad related purchases.

Yes, there are many types of iPad stands, some cheap and simple, some complex and expensive and some are iPad cases with multi function use, including acting like a stand when folded correctly. How about this one, the steel stand seems Cool! http://www.buy.com/prod/360-degrees...mount-for-apple-ipad/q/loc/101/217050819.html

The loop is not really portable. Its lugable.

The loop is not really portable. Its lugable.

That's a perfect way of putting it Better suited to sitting on a desktop than being hauled around.
