Cheap DIY Home-Made Stands :)

[daniel.weck]

I often use my Galaxy Tab as a laptop companion, resting within arm reach, displaying news streams, clock, calendar, online radio, etc.

Inspired by this design [1], I decided to throw together my very own cheapskate made-with-pencils tripod stand
My prototypal version is secured with less-than-elegant black tape, so it won't win beauty contests ! However it is very sturdy, and works wonderfully in both portrait and landscape modes.
There is plenty of room for the charge/sync connector as well as for the stereo speakers to remain unblocked.

I also recycled an old plexiglas photo holder into a low tablet stand suitable for horizontal/landscape mode. Rubber bands prevent the Tab from slipping !

I like the pension stand! However I made a nice little stand from a box of Godiva chocolates - just cut out a rectangle the size of the tab in landscape and added some padding on the inside so it wouldn't slide down. Looks pretty good in black!

Why don't you buy the single-definition TV out composite cable ? (it's cheap compared to the HDMI high-definition dock)

I got a card holder from Office Depot for 5 bucks. Works great as a stand in landscape mode.
