Just|Mobile UpStand iPad Stand Review

Just Mobile upstand

I recently reviewed JaDu Industries’ Skadoosh, a well made and uniquely engineered, portable aluminum iPad Stand. Just|Mobile has gone in the opposite direction from a complexity of design point of view with their new iPad stand, the UpStand.

I’ve recently began keeping a journal after a long hiatus. Writing again has prompted me to become a little bit obsessed with notebooks, pens, drawing pencils and other accessories.

Apple creates many very well designed and highly polished devices…..true tech-candy. This is especially true since Apple has gone all glass and aluminum in their products. The iPad is one of their latest (and most desired) products, already selling millions of tablets world-wide. Whenever possible, I like my accessories to match my Apple product’s tech-polish.
