FLOTE, an ergonomic floor stand designed for the iPad, has been launched as a new Kickstarter project. The machined-metal floor stand can hold an iPad, as well as most other popular tablets, in a comfortable position for prolonged use. The need to adjust any knobs or screws has also been removed, allowing users to quickly position their mobile device in any position. The FLOTE project has already been backed by over 80 people and is halfway to its goal of $30,000 in pledges.
