I found an inexpensive gooseneck stand by Aduro at Microcenter for $8: Gooseneck stand
It's designed to hold a small cell phone with a clamp at the end of a swivel ball.
You can remove the clamp easily (it comes detached).
The ball at the end of the gooseneck has a hole partway through that is a bit smaller than 1/4".
You can easily drill it through, which allows you to mount things with a 1/4" screw.
This does not prevent you from using the original clamp later if you prefer.
The gooseneck is very stiff, it takes two hands to bend it.
I've always put 1/4" T-nuts on the back of my Nooks.
On the NST the flange is on the inside, on the G2 it's simply epoxied to the back.
Just by itself it gives you a resting place for your fingers so that the Nook doesn't slip through.
With a little gooseneck leg (salvaged from a mini camera tripod) it makes a nice desk stand.
You can then mount your Nook to the Aduro gooseneck.
Although this gooseneck is stiff, with a Nook at the end of a two foot extension it can get a bit wobbly.
Instead of poking the screen, I use my button box to flip pages.
This uses a tiny microcontroller which spits out commands to the hardware console jack that I installed on my G2, G3.
This accepts a Linux command which tells a daemon to inject a key and turn the page.
When it's cold I can flip the pages with my hands under the covers.
