I'm always bugged by the fact that my $29 iPhone 3G dock doesn't let me set the thing landscape.

Some guy named Roland devised a high-tech stand using 5 pencils and 4 rubber bands to watch his iPhone movies and such. A clever little creation indeed. You never know, this may even work with pens.

Of course there's no nifty built-in charger for this stand, but at the low price of $1.12, I'm sure you can finagle some way to make it happen.

Show us your versions.

Thanks for the tip, Roland.
