How do you watch videos in bed?

[solaris7]

Hi Guys,
I got my ipad yesterday but have a concern regarding the positioning when watching videos in bed. I use the landscape mode (head tilted sideways on the pillow) , but when I position the ipad I feel like my earphone connector might break because they carry the whole weight of the ipad! Have you guys found a solution for this?

Unless ice misunderstood what you're saying couldn't you just rotate it the other way seeing as you can use the iPad on any side?

A case like the Yoobao magic/slim magic or the targus truss works wonders for horizontal viewing, sets the iPad in multiple angles and keeps the iPad elevated clearing the headphones input/jack.. I tried both and opted for the Yoobao, the Truss was just a bit too bulky..

Yep, see attachment.

But, unlike the picture suggests, you rest your head on the top of the pillow and your chest is "curved" to a horizontal axis, then you put your iPad on the slope, which is formed by your legs.

This is a joke right?

The problem is that I can't stay in that position for too long, I like to keep switching between the sides.

Don't turn to you side, keep straight and rest your iPad on your knees - which are, obviously, upright.

I suggest propping up the iPad against a compressed part of your sheets

Turn the iPad 180 degrees.

Great illustrations. I'm voting this the best thread of the year.

I guess iPad can be considered a drug now.

It made OP lose all his common sense.

This is a hilarious thread for a number of reasons:

1. The OP is either trying to be funny or has lost all common knowledge.
2. Other posters have found this as an excuse to show off their art skills.
