The Freedom Mount will stick an iPad (and soon the Galaxy Tab) to almost anything
The Freedom Mount tablet holder from MountMe will let you mount your iPad (and soon your Galaxy Tab) on almost anything. Its seeminglly ridiculous levels of practicality are only matched by its aesthetic shortcomings.
The rather suggestively named Freedom Mount is a plastic case with a large appendage on the back. When not getting in the way and making it hard to put in a bag, this appendage can be used as a prop or multi-angle kickstand to prop the iPad up on table, leg or couch-arm. But It's the range of included accessories which really make it flexible. First, there's a strap which hooks into this rear assembly and wraps around your leg, or the headrest of a car or airplane (or bus or train) seat.
Second are the four suction cups, which hook into the keyhole-shaped cutouts on the Freedom Mount and let you secure the iPad onto mirrors, windows, bathroom tiles and other unsuitable places. Finally, you can opt to screw the mount direct to the wall for a more permanent solution. The mount will tilt and spin in place, so you still have some movement.
Almost every part of this willfully utilitarian design makes me want to ignore it, but it's the plain bulkiness which seems to be the worst aspect. Right now I can slide my iPad into any bag and not notice it. Adding the MountMe to the setup makes it more like taking a baby out for a trip, which apparently can't be done without a couple of holdalls worth of "baby stuff."
The Freedom Mount costs $50 and comes in red, silver and black.
