Not for me , I prefer something modern.
As long as you like it , that's all that matters. Enjoy !

Made of wood, got two places to park your iPad on, at 18 degrees (movies) and 45 degrees (typing).

How? What holds it. Seriously interested.
Wow. Bit expensive, but nice.

That's the one I got a few weeks ago. Review here:

You'll like it, it's simple but does a great job.
Prop-Up
And then there's this one, which is REALLY cool and versatile, IMO, the Prop-Up. When it comes out in July, I'm sure it will fill the void for many reasons. Look at the Gallery at:

Sorry for the rush shots but this is how I use my Gorilla Pod.

I went a similiar route to Charlie, except I found a nice metal easel in ikea.
It fits the iPad perfectly, though I added some padding to protect my iPad just in case.

Just be aware that your iPad will have to go naked in order to fit into that stand. No cases or skins will work.
Not affiliated at all, just wanted to bring up something that had some interest a couple months back that seems to have been forgotten on these forums (probably as its still in prerelease)

This was the one I was going to get before I decided on a combo folio-stand. They changed it in a few ways since it was first announced, most significantly you can now use it in portrait while plugged in. It's a little pricey, but as an engineer myself I can dig that it appears well engineered. The typing angle seems a bit extreme though, I would wait for reviews to roll in.

For $60 I don't think anyone forgot, just stopped thinking about it.
The stands posted here and the office depot stand all come in at less than $5.I myself went with a more modern look & portability...
Well there's also the Joule shown in this thread, which is $129. That said like with anything, you can buy a $5 sleeve, or a $50 sleeve, $20 case, or a $200 one, etc. The title of this thread is "The coolest iPad stand?" IMO it blows everything in this thread out of the water by a mile.
Same as me, except I've got the mini non-SLR version of the Gorillapod. Doesn't look as chunky.
Agreed - that's a cool stand - perhaps the coolest I have seen. It's more than I would pay for a stand but not unreasonable given it's functionality & looks.
