That's pretty darn ingenious, DM!

JP, I don't know if 'deformed' was the right word to use, but I have had problems with my fingers in the past - one on each hand has been injured and only partially healed (and since surgery on fingers often isn't recommended, due to the small bones and numerous tendons, etc., these fingers of mine ARE slightly deformed as a result of my past clumsiness) and doing normal things is a tiny bit uncomfortable now - and I'm probably paranoid about further injuries, so when I read about stuff like this (or like texting thumb, or De Quervain Syndrome) I probably worry a bit too much. But it DOES get uncomfortable, and my little finger never really knows where to position itself and if I try to do a marathon session, I eventually have to put the device down and rest my fingers for a while. Either I support the device from the bottom with my little finger, or to the side.

This stand is taking a little getting used to, but it's already very handy and easy to deal with, so I'm glad I got it. If I'd gone and made one myself, I'd be gluing it back together once a day, no doubt. The only drawback (if you can call it that) is that I would usually sit in my computer chair witbh my feet propped up on another chair, and hold the device over my lap while I played. With this on my desk I can't put my feet up, but I can take frequent breaks instead, so it's not a real problem.
