Hi

lately my hands has been in pain cause i have hold the ipad wrong i guess. im wondering how u guys sit/handle the ipad when your sitting in a office chair, or in the sofa.
 
If I'm sitting up I like to cross my legs and prop up up at an angle on my legs.

If I'm laying down more on the couch, I either hold it up on my stomach, or just bend my knees and rest it on the tops of my legs.

It can take a bit of getting used to, but I find it pretty comfortable and better than laying my heavy laptop on my lap when I'm on the couch.

I put a clear vinyl skin on the back of the ipad. It gives it a bit of stickiness that lets me hand hold it with ease.
 
Normally I just have my legs propped up, but I'll definitely have to give the pillow thing a try! Good idea!

Depends on if you are male or female...
 
I actually picked up a small netbook lapdesk from Best Buy for $20. The iPad works pretty well on there but for best results i suggest using it in the Apple Case on the lapdesk. I either put the desk on the arm of the chair or on my lap (ie. belly) and it's pretty decent.
