Yes, the Poke5 little board is mounted on the gooseneck.
I tried to find the exact model but all the ones I see have the gooseneck in curlycues.
The one that I have is fairly stiff. You can bend it, but really only one wide radius bend on the whole length.
Even so, sagging is still a problem.
As delivered the arm does not rotate inside the clamp.
I hammered it loose to break the mold so that the arm can be swung out of position without changing the bend of the arm.

The bottom line is that I find reading on my side more comfortable than reading on my back. It's probably the mattress.
