Anyone else losing their grip? (tablet holders)

Anyone else losing their grip ...

In trying to make a snazzy attention getting subject line I was going to continue with

on their sanity?
on their last threads of reality?

But -> on their ereader/tablet/ipad? is the real end to the question...

I gathered up links for all the holders I could find with an image, information blurb from each holders site and put them on

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1.../edit?hl=en_US

I read here alot and do not recall ever seeing anyone mention a holder

I do realize that because of my vision problems I might use my ereader/tablet differently than most, I have to hold my device withen 6 inches from my eyes so I cannot rest the device in my lap, set it on a stand on my desk etc

having to hold my device constantly led me to look for a holder

I think I have found most of them, and put them on the google doc above

I'm looking for a holder that doesn't adhesively attach itself to the device, like the handeholder, but uses adjustable elastic straps like the handecinch but pivots for portrait or landscape mode which the handecinch doesn't appear to do

Has anyone used any of these holders?

Can anyone recommend a pivoting holder that doesn't stick to the reader/tablet?

Thanks for you work. I was looking for something like this. When I visited the Amazon link I also found a "padette"

Hah. I was wondering if they made something like this the other day. I just didn't know what they'd even call it. Lo and behold, there's quite a few of them!

You're welcome

if anyone is hesitant about google docs here are most of the holders web site links without pics, videos or descriptions

I've got a cheap rubber sleeve on mine (made by somebody like Belkin).

Adds grip perfectly well.
