iPhone or iPod stand made out of a paper clip

Here's a quick video from Lifehacker on how to make a little iPod/iPhone stand from a paper clip. Apple, if it had any creativity whatsoever, would have made that paperclip that ejects your SIM into this little guy via some crazy transformer robotics.

This reminds me of a guy I sat next to who used his dinner roll as an iPod stand on a flight to New York. This is a big improvement.

There should be more little do it yourself things like this reported. When iPhone accessories cost a minimum of $29.99, little homemade things become more practical for my wallet. Keep reporting these 9to5 mac!

You are such a fool Weintraub. You only exist to write your crap about trivia because of Apple's creativity. Why not use the paperclip to make a stand to rest your empty head, it won't buckle under the low mass load. Promise.
