Can you look at the iPad while flat on your back? with the iPad horizontal, or nearly horizontal? can even push the power button without holding the iPad?

Yes, although this stand does have a tendency to be a little bit shaky. It's not weighted very heavily at the bottom so I really would only recommend using it in an upright position. But it CAN do what you are asking.

Yes. you can. However, I use it at night with one or two pillows below my head. One word of caution is that the farther you extend the IPAD arm the more prone it will start to fall. This is due to the weight. To counter this you can add a weight on the other end to balance it. What I do is I don't extend it too far and lay near the edge of my bed. I love it! My wife does not. So it's a mixed bag.

You can position the pad anyway you want. It is a good product for watching or reading, but excessive tapping on the screen makes the stand wobble. The weight of the pad is too much for the stand. You can reach all buttons, but the silent and lock buttons are tight.

Since I don't use the arm, I had to assemble it now and verify. The answer's a solid yes. You can definitely look at the iPad when flat on your back.

Nancy, I wouldn't trust it to handle an iPad in portrait position. It has a release system that allows the user to remove the iPad holding assembly from the arm and gravity holds it in place. It simply involves pegs sliding into slots and then pushing it down to the bottom of the slot. While it works perfectly for landscape positioning, it might be tempted to slip out of the slots as gravity might work against it at the wrong angle.In summary, no, I would not recommend holding a precious iPad in portrait mode with this unit.

If you held it in front of you sideways, the keyboard would point at 3 o'clock, and the iPad would point at 11 o'clock. I don't have issues with the viewing angle at all. Hope that helps!

You can't stand it up and use it vertically, but it fits nicely in your hand (if you're right handed) if you want t use it vertically that way. The horizontal positioning is great. If you pull the bottom part off of the tablet, you can even connect the keyboard.

Yes, it has an easel stand that props up behind to hold the iPad up horizontally for viewing. It does not have a way to hold the iPad up vertically.

Yes. You'll need to mount the iPad naked or use a case that's extremely flat. Unfortunately textured cases don't work.

Yes, the flexible gooseneck will bend to allow the screen of the iPad mini and other tablets to face straight down so they can be viewed while lying flat on your back looking up. Thanks, Standzout

Yes, all different angles in either portrait or landscape. I bought this for my father in law and then got one myself and then my sister in law bought one, it's a really great accessory for comfortable use of an iPad or any tablet. I just saw your additional comments it won't prop your ipad diagonally - if I want to lie on my side in bed and read, I lock my ipad in portrait mode then prop the ipad on the stand on its long side - does that make sense?

You can prop an iPad on either the short or long side. There are also various degrees of incline to accommodate positions from sitting to laying down prone.

The Airbender 2.0 does open up completely flat. You can also disconnect the upper and lower portions of the case, which opens up even more possibilities, or disconnect the top half ot the case entirely from the hinge, so you don't have to take the iPad out of the case if you want to ditch the keyboard altogether for tablet use.

Hello Nick and thank you for your interest in our product unfortunately this specific unit does not allow access to the sleep button while the IPad is in the enclosure. I do apologize for any inconvenience and as always do feel free to contact me for further assistance. Thanks again Andrea

Yes. You can position it so that the iPad is parallel with the floor face up or down. Literally you can position the device in ANY direction. I loved it so much that I bought one for my father for Christmas. I'm a dentist and use it over my patient's head with a pair of blue tooth headphones so they can watch TV or a movie while I work. They love it! The iPad is parallel to the floor at that point. You'll find so many other uses for it. Hope you enjoy!

es but in a limited way. The iPad will reorient the display if you turn the Solo over to put in on left side. The note pad will then be on the right. However, the notpad will be updise down with slot for insertion of the notepad backing into Solo on the bottom. This means the paper will be upside down with tear off tab at the bottom. I could see that it would work with the paper lines but being loose at the top as you write coud be a problem.

If you are talking about the Ipad in a closed postion, the Ipad does not slip out of the case unless you have it in backwards/upsidedown. The magnetic closure system only works in one direction. As long as you always make sure you close it in the proper position with correct alignment you will not have a problem. In the open position I only have a problem when I use the IPad in a vertical position. It's never a problem for me in the horizontal position.

You can position the iPad in either portrait or landscape positions. I actually prefer the landscape as it makes it easier to use.

No there is not, however, if you place the ipad in it with the power switch on top then the power supply can be attached and the ipad "flips" the screen image so it can be viewed correct side up.

well, technically you could, but it would lie flat and not be any different from setting your ipad on the counter. It is not designed to "stand alone"
