There are times when you want to lean back with coffee in hand and just read or watch a movie on your phone or tablet. Unfortunately, God did not give them legs, and they do a pretty poor job of standing on their own.<\/p>\n

QuikStand by NiteIze to the rescue! <\/strong><\/p>\n

The QuikStand<\/a> is a compact yet versatile stand for any cellphone or tablet and works amazingly well for such a simple device.\u00a0 Unfold the stand and you can adjust it to whatever angle works best for your viewing.<\/p>\n

The design is quite simple and compact \u2013 you can even fit it in your wallet. The rubber edge keeps it from slipping.<\/p>\n

If you\u2019ve ever had to take your phone out of its case to use it with a stand before \u2013 you know what a total pain that is.\u00a0 No more with the QuikStand from NiteIze<\/a>.<\/p>\n

When you find the NiteIze display at your favorite retailer, also look for their SlideLock,<\/a> a carabiner with a simple locking device for those things you never, ever want to lose.\u00a0 It comes in three sizes and holds 10#, 75# or 100#, and it\u2019s worth its weight in gold if it keeps you from losing your keys, cellphone or camera.<\/p>\n
