The Oona: A Smartphone Stand

Over at KickStarter, a site that allows inventors to harness the power of the crowd to fund its project, this nifty little device is getting some serious attention. They call it The Oona.

Got an email from one of their founders and I think I like the Oona enough to shell out some dough to fund it.

As they described it, the Oona is a versatile smartphone stand that has so many uses:

– A GPS on the windshield of your car
– A reference device on a white board
– The ability to mount your smart phone to a tripod to take photos or video
– The gift to keep your hands free while watching a movie on your smart phone
– A simple stand to keep your phone in view on your desk at work
– Many more applications, we can’t possibly write all of them downï»¿

When you fund it via KickStarter, you also get one of the Oona once it comes out. Know more about the project here.

Nako! Kung makita yan ng China, I am sure, they will copy the design of it and sell a fortune on it. I hope it is already patented.

By the way, I am tempted to support, but then again, I should first have a better phone. :-)

Will it fit to Nokia 5110? (just kidding!) hehehehe

I got my hands on the Oona recently. There aren’t many places that sell it in the UK that sell it besides these guys. It’s pretty good. I was a little nervous that the suction wouldn’t hold my phone well, but once you use it, you realize that it isn’t really an issue. It actually has a surprisingly strong grip, perhaps even better than some of the other smartphone stands about at the moment.

My phone now spends it life stuck on the cupboard in my kitchen, displaying recipes for me to read whilst cooking :]
