Curling up with an iPad

I've owned an iPad for about a week now. And I really like the freedom to read any format on it, especially PDFs. But no matter where I'm reading - bed, couch or table - I'm constantly fidgeting to find a comfortable position.

It's especially hard to read in bed at night, since I lay on my side. I've tried two of the stand cases so I don't have to hold it, but then I'm laying at an angle to the text. My current attempt at comfortability is:

iBooks or Kindle app in night mode, with 2 pages.
iPad in Landscape locked, but physically leaning against a foam cushion in vertially/portrait.

Since I'm in two page mode, I'm *almost* lined up to the text, but I still find myself tipping it to match the angle of my head on my pillow, which leads to shoulder and wrist cramps anyway. Sigh.

Has anyone found a good side-laying way to read on an iPad?
