Piolo iPhone Stand the Most Minimal Yet

Everything about the Piolo iPhone stand is minimal -- including the price

If you liked the minimal MoviePeg iPhone stand, you're going to love the Piolo, which offers more — or really less — of the same. Hell, even its name is shorter.

Where the MoviePeg was a chunky, rubbery clip-on stand with a satisfying heft, the Piolo is a thin strip of TPE (thermoplastic elastomer) with a notch cut to hold the iPhone. It works in both horizontal and vertical configurations and props up the handset by working as a tiny kickstand.

Wired.com's very own NYC Bureau Chief Mr. John C. Abell had the MoviePeg for his iPhone 3GS and regarded it as good. The Piolo seems to be the same, only even more pocket friendly, and even has a hole to hook it onto a keychain.

But the very best thing about the Piolo, designed and made in the gruffly charming city of sheffield in England, is its price. The designer, Andrew Bond, has even applied his minimalist creed to the cost, and the Piolo sells for just £4, or $6.50, plus flat rate shipping for just £1.85 ($3). What's not to like? And how can you not like a man whose bio includes the following: "I like a good cup of tea, bacon sandwiches, sleep, photography, films."?
