I guess you have to do that when your ghetto phone doesn't come with a build in kickstand.

Hahaha!

If memory serves me well a real road bike or Moutain bike doesn't come with a kick stand. They reserve those for kiddie bikes and training wheels. Something like your toy phone.

bicycle != phone

One has a built in stand. The other has to use a rigged paper clip to hold it up. Hmmmm

Order your chrome plated IStand for only $19.95, today! If you order in the next 10 minutes, we will include not one, but two stands. Call now, operators are standing by. They can, because their phone is being operated hands free, with their IStand. Call now!

We don't need cheap built in gadgets to add to the allure of the phone. We're creative enough (like MacGyver) to build what we need when we need it.

Before anyone comes in here and starts something serious...Thomas and I are friends. We just like picking on one another cell phone preference.

I suppose a gold plated paperclip could make it classier for $5 a box. Lots of stands there.

Actually I was thinking about powder coating the paper clip to match the iPhone paint job.

I really did buy this stand for my office desk at work.

Pfft.

Have to buy an aftermarket item just to stand it up.

Next thing you know, you will have to buy an aftermarket item just to make it get reception!
