The most insanely overengineered iPhone/iPad stand ever

Really, all it takes if you want to have a stand for your iPhone or iPad is a file clip or a folded stiff piece of cardboard. But if you want to take your iPad stand to the extreme, here’s the Rokstand, an iPad stand milled out of solid aluminum, making it look like it came out of the engine of a dragster.

Anyway, it’s practically dripping in needless engineering: high-speed bearings, non-slip contact surface rings and strange little cam systems that provide six whole angles of adjustment. All that, to hold an iPhone or iPad.

And it’s only $169.
