I have designed a generic kickstand that will work on all mobile phones, e-readers, and tablets (two may be needed for larger or heavy tablets) and would want to know if this is a desired option if it were available and what you think it would be worth.
I have one on my personal epic and it works perfect and is Very Thin. I will make a video or pictures if there is enough interest. It definitely works better than the Evo or Thunderbolt kickstands, it is not as "tip-able" in portrait or landscape mode.
This would be no required modification to install and would take less than 5 seconds to install. It is simply called kickstand4u tm mobile kickstand for all mobile devices!
******************************************
As of 11-22-2012, the kickstand4u tm is now available.
Please use the Promotion Code without quotes "XDA" for a 25% discount and to say thanks to all of you! Please help me spread the word. I hope you enjoy the kickstand4u tm as much as I do. I have another development coming soon made specifically for tablets of all sizes and will simply attach itself to the kickstand4u tm. I will post information about that here soon. Enjoy!
So Bottom line: Retail Price = $9.95 - XDA 25% off Discount Promotion Code = your price of $7.46 - shipping and handling = $2.45 - Your total cost = $9.91 - price may vary depending on postage - Yes we take PayPal.
******************************************
Just a Note for those that are still on the fence.
The "XDA" Promotion Code will last as long as I can keep it going. I appreciate the support that you have given me.
I thank all of you that have participated in this initial offering. If you have liked your kickstand4u tm, please help me spread the word. I hope you enjoy the kickstand4u tm as much as I do. For those that are using the kickstand4u tm on their tablets or e-readers, keep checking back from time to time, as the Tablet Extender and Tripod Mount will be available sometime the summer of 2014 along with a new 2nd Generation kickstand4u tm mobile kickstand for all mobile devices. Of course the 1st Generation will be able to make use of these two new add-ons, and there is an upgrade - so checkout our new website for more information! Thank you again!
Thanks very much to all!

As of 01-20-13
Link to "Alternate" way to Close the kickstand4u tm
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kVYXCUIEJgY
This way is especially helpful when new, as the kickstand4u tm is a little stiff. This is the proper area "touch point" to use when closing. When the pressure is at the very edge of the kickstand blade, it will close very easily. When closing by hand, use the same principle. Pressing on the short piece of plastic that looks like an upside down capital "T" will damage the kickstand.
******************************************
*Install tips for Tablets 7" and up: when determining best position on tablets 7" and up, placing the kickstand4u ™ in the "center of your tablet" seems to work best. As far as kickstand orientation on your tablet, see links below:
Sorry for the rough pictures, I will get some better ones up, but at least this will give you an idea.

If it were to your liking - would you - I can't post pictures yet - but it would be about the thickness one and a half pennies flat.
I have to keep the idea closed for a short time - thank you very much for your comment!
I would love this.... once I saw the kickstand case for the evo3d I knew I had to have one for my epic
yeah not sure why you wouln't try to post pics somewhere... as it is there are cases for the epic that have a kickstand so its not the first time... put them on picassa or something
I know my g/f wants one for our phone.

Actually, I have to talk to the mfg first - but trying to get a feel for it before our talks.
If things don't go as I planned, I will probably post pics and instructions on how to build one if you are handy, but doing it that way is more costly (approximately $34.00 plus labor) - therefore generic.
But will post pictures and or videos as soon as I get the word. Thanks for the response!
I would like it if it fit my case that I have AND I would like it if it kick-standed in portrait and landscape (and landscape with the keyboard open, but I don't think that is possible).
I am pretty happy with my Izel stand, so it would have to be even better.

Edit: I take that back, yes it will work properly in the landscape or portrait mode with the keyboard open.

Well, you wouldn't have to carry it as a seperate accessory and it is definitly thinner. Aslo when it is attached to your phone, it feels Very comfortable!

Those are all pluses. Does it still work if you have a case on your phone?
hell yes i want one as long as its not bulky as hell
4 me the answer is a definite no. When deciding between the epic and evo the kickstand was 1 of the major contributing factors. I didn't want to break 1 off in my pocket.

i am looking to buy a smartwatch and have really been looking at the I'm watch just wondering what everyone else's favorite smartwatch is, please use the poll and leave any comments etc thanks.
Sony Ericsson MBW-150/200. If you can find one and you're looking for something more upscale, try the MBW-150 Executive Edition. The LiveView is trash, don't bother with it. The Sony Ericsson watches are made by Fossil. It's what I use right now. Like ~$65-$70 on Amazon. I got it shipped to me the next day:

thanks and i took a look at these watches but i like the I'm watch mainly because it is running android and even has a notification bar, you can also develop apps for it which should allow you to change the clock faces as well with peoples creations.
My Liveview just has just broken today.. I'm really sad I think I'm going to buy once of them suggested by Product F(RED)...
Can I read the text of the incoming sms from the Fossil that you have linked?

Yes sir. Read text, it also displays battery, Gmail, etc. You can make ANY notification in the notification bar come up on the phone's display.

After three failed displays on three MBW-150s (two Executives and one Classic), I may try the MW-200. Someone on another thread said that the display on his MBW-200 hasn't faded (yet), while his MBW-150 did. Since the MBW-200 uses a different display, I wonder if Sony knew this all along, and that's why they came out with it?
FYI, when I called the local Fossil shop to see about the possibility of getting replacement displays for my MBW-150s, the tech said they DID NOT make the MBW series for Sony-Ericsson, another vendor did. He said they did make the MetaWatch, but as stated elsewhere, it doesn't work very well with OpenWatch.

After some searches, it seems that the MBW-200 is designed to be a woman's watch. Can someone compare the size of it to the MBW-150? I'm a big guy with large wrists, so I don't want a little sissy watch on my wrist.

In your opinion, is the WIMM worth $300?
I've been considering it, and am on the fence...
The "I'm Watch" is looking to be coming together beautifully, and if I were to buy a SmartWatch, that's what I would go with...

@IP IHI II IL that link you posted is fairly recent (nov 1st) and it mentions the watch having wifi when i have read on their site and other sites that it does not, is this true? and i believe only the WIMM watch has wifi. i'm watch has not started shipping so they do still have time to make some changes i believe.

Every review I have read says it will have wifi capabilities when it ships. I believe Android Central and Android Police both have pretty recent stories/reviews as well.

With the way phones are being used as media and social networking hubs, this is actually a productive and very functional accessory that will certainly help me at a glance when i'm too involved to fiddle with the phone across the room or in my pocket with auto grease on my hands.
I just pre-ordered one, they said early 2013 for purchase date. Looks like i know what my tax return will be funding.. ingenuity!
Hi my name is Stefano and I have a Galaxy S. I know our smartphone is a little obsolete, but with the new jellybean-based ROM for me is still a great device. so I've build a cover with a built-in LED Flash for it, and I'm trying to reach the goal to give interested people the possibility to take pictures in low light conditions...
here is the link for Indiegogo's Campaign with all the details: http://igg.me/p/278277/x/1711899

Hi, thanks for your interest... This kind of cover is only the first (I hope) model, as we write on the campaign description we would like to design coverlight for other device... If you aren't the only one in the world we can modify it's design based on that kind of cover, sure...

Hi
It's a great idea ! it looks very professional.
I will spread the word.
will it be possible to lower the costs and the delivery costs ?
10$ delivery is not cheap you know, and back cover alone costs only a few bucks, so 30$ +10$ is not cheap to invest in an obsolete device such as SGS1.
