I do a lot of traveling and the main reason I bought the iPad Pro was for sheet music purposes. At home, I can use my music stand but I would rather not have to bring a full music stand when I travel, and just prop the iPad Pro up vertically. All the stands/cases I see show horizontal/landscape orientations. Does anyone have any recommendations for a good travel stand for veritical/portrait orientation on a Pro?

I'm looking at these right now...

This Lynktec stand is great. The only issue is that I think the iPad Pro is too heavy for its nano-suction pad because, inevitably, the stand falls off the Pro (doesn't happen with an Air 2). The company has offered to inspect and replace it, if needed, but I'm not sure this would help. I'm think of just using some 3M adhesive strips to attach it instead. They are strong and easily removable (only one time, though - you can't keep removing and reattaching like with the nano-suction pad). Only thing I'm worried about is whether using the 3M strips will destroy the nano-suction pad.

Thanks very much for the input.
