GoPad: The Most Interesting iPad Accessory In The World

Showing up with an iPad immediately earns you "hip" points, extra credit if you're at a Starbucks. There's only one way to make yourself even more interesting: Showing up with a GoPad, a wearable iPad stand that you hang around your neck.

When you have the urge to type and walk at the same time, but your iPhone 5 isn't enough, just whip out your iPad with attached GoPad. Now you can prop your iPad against your body for typing and reading! It's like a dental appliance for your belly!

When you no longer feel like looking at the screen, you simply snap the iPad back into the GoPad's kickstand, and carry it off. When you're ready to use it again, you just flip out the stand and your iPad snaps into place, ready to use hands free!

The GoPad Kickstarter campaign has a goal of $75,000, with 43 days to go, so there's a chance this product can become a reality. The best part is that anyone who pledges even a dollar can watch the company VP perform his "Dance of Joy." No. Seriously.
