What I'm talking about are these little stands where you can stand a book up, and be able to read the book without craning your neck down to a desk (ie so the book sits at a higher angle and you don't move your nec to read).
I've seen various in the past so i know they exist.

Anyone know where on earth to go to find one?
Thanks.

Damn people are lazy these days. I suppose that you use an electric toothbrush just so you dont have to move the brush yourself as well.

Heh thanks, I had a feeling they were of shoddy quality since the ones i have seen in the past used by other students looked no more than $1 worth of Z-grade plastic.

But I suppose anything will do at this point, I sort of need it cause my neck gets stiff really easily and theres eventually thousands of pages to be read =(

Does it bear any resemblance to those stands in the kitchen mothers use to place their cookbooks?

I've seen wooden ones that you can easily fold away to save space and they're not too big. Check those out instead!

why do you need anything worth more then a dollar anyway. Or do you want to to be Versace and signed by some famous dude?

seriosuly if u want sometihng like that just make yuor own out of normal household utelsils. FFs give me a paperclip, a piece of string and some lint and ill make you one.

No fair, electric toothbrushes provide exellent dental care.

And yes, I have one of those book stands- like the things secretaries have.
