The stand is elegant and serves its purpose. I get my daily e-paper and can read this using the stand comfortably on the iPad on the breakfast table - consumes much less space than a newspaper made of paper! This stand can be regulated not only the inclination of the iPad, it can also be handy to fold and carry in your handbag and any one can confuse people so wonderfully: Handing Easy to open stand and ask what it is. If hardly anyone on it!
