The iPhone and iPod touch are definitely the best video-watching portable devices that Apple—possibly anybody—has ever created, but they still have their shortcomings. For example, while the touch ships with a plastic stand that lets you prop up the iPod for longterm watching, poor iPhone users are condemned to a life of hand cramps from holding their iPhone on that transatlantic flight.

The PED3 rotating stand is here to save you that trouble. It can hold the iPhone vertically or horizontally, and rotate three hundred sixty degrees so that you have your choice of viewing angles. And should you want to connect the iPhone to your computer or a power source while watching, the PED3 also helps control cable clutter.

Sure, you could make your own stand out of a spare business card, but come on: if you’ve already spent the hundreds of dollars on a portable video player, you can probably afford $40 more for the quality of plastic, right?
