OH
There are a few threads about specific stands but I thought it would be nice to have a consolidated thread. I like the look of the BookArc stand but I'm not sure I want to pay $40 for it.
A dedicated stand will be nice for using the iPad as a photo frame rather than a case/stand. Whatcha got?
 
I need my iPad first...right now I have my Apple Case box sitting in my stand pretending I actually have my 3G here. :(
 
Here is my home made stand.

Does my case/stand hybrid count? :p I got it for 25 bucks online :)

WINNER!

I did the same thing, but I have a local store. $3. I am not cheap, but I can't spend $50+ for a stinking stand. I'd rather buy apps with that money.

I went to two stores near by, both recently closed! Apparently Minnesota is not buying enough fabrics. :p
 
went to get the .69 cent business card holder from Office Depot but they didn't have them at my store. I found this thing for 5 bucks though and it's way cooler looking and probably more stable than the cheaper one.

like Fanatik7, I was also inspired by THE JOULE, but didn't want to fork out such a large sum for a simple stand.

and made these for some scrap materials :)

these are very easy to make, no need to make the back curve, just used two rubber bumps on either side to correct for the curve.
