What I liked most about this stand was the ability to tilt the iPad in the stand to almost any angle, making for the most desirable viewing angle. The folks at Jadu were paying attention and while the Skadoosh is not shipping yet (it&#8217;s getting close) they sent an early prototype for me to give a look.<\/p>\n<p>The stand is solid metal with the exception of the plastic rocker where the iPad is inserted. This rocker can accept the iPad in either portrait or landscape orientation, with a place for the docking cable in portrait. The base is very solid and doesn&#8217;t seem like the iPad would be in danger of falling over, but there is an extendable fixture to leave nothing to chance.<\/p>\n<div id=\"inline-related-posts-\" class=\"widget inline-related-posts alignleft clearfix\">\n<div class=\"widget-wrap\">\n<div class=\"widget-title-wrap clearfix\">\n<h2 class=\"widget-title\">More on <span><a class=\"category-link\" href=\"http:\/\/jkontherun.com\/topic\/apple\/\" title=\"Apple\">Apple<\/a><\/span><\/h2>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<ul class=\"inline-related-posts\">\n<li>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"inline-related-posts-article\"><a href=\"http:\/\/jkontherun.com\/2010\/05\/15\/comparing-android-phone-shipments-with-iphone-blackberry\/\">Comparing Android Phone Shipments With iPhone,&nbsp;BlackBerry<\/a><\/span><br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"brand-icon jk-run\"><a href=\"http:\/\/jkontherun.com\" title=\"Visit: jkOnTheRun - This is a description.\">Gadget Gurus<\/a><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/li>\n<li>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"inline-related-posts-article\"><a href=\"http:\/\/jkontherun.com\/2010\/05\/13\/viewfinder-for-mac-a-screencast\/\">Viewfinder for Mac &#8212; a&nbsp;Screencast<\/a><\/span><br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"brand-icon jk-run\"><a href=\"http:\/\/jkontherun.com\" title=\"Visit: jkOnTheRun - This is a description.\">Gadget Gurus<\/a><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/li>\n<li>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"inline-related-posts-article\"><a href=\"http:\/\/jkontherun.com\/2010\/05\/13\/an-iphone-in-every-pot\/\">An iPhone in Every&nbsp;Pot?<\/a><\/span><br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"brand-icon jk-run\"><a href=\"http:\/\/jkontherun.com\" title=\"Visit: jkOnTheRun - This is a description.\">Gadget Gurus<\/a><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/li>\n<li>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"inline-related-posts-article\"><a href=\"http:\/\/jkontherun.com\/2010\/05\/11\/mindmapping-on-the-ipad-ithoughts-review\/\">Mindmapping on the iPad: iThoughts&nbsp;Review<\/a><\/span><br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"brand-icon jk-run\"><a href=\"http:\/\/jkontherun.com\" title=\"Visit: jkOnTheRun - This is a description.\">Gadget Gurus<\/a><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/li>\n<\/ul><\/div>\n<div class=\"widget-bottom clearfix\"><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Tilting the iPad in the Skadoosh is as simple as pushing the release button on the front of the stand and pushing\/pulling the slate. The stand gives a definite click when it is locked at the desired angle and holds firm.<\/p>\n<p>The iPad will only fit in the Skadoosh outside of a case, but Jadu notified me they are making a modification to the plastic rocker so that it will accept the iPad while inside certain cases. This would be perfect, as my iPad is almost never outside the Apple case. The stand should be shipping soon I am told, and pricing is $57.99.<\/p>\n<p><script type=\"text\/javascript\">\n\t\t\t\t\tvar galleryData = [{\"title\":\"Skadoosh front\",\"caption\":\"\",\"thumbnail\":\"http:\\\/\\\/jkontherun.files.wordpress.com\\\/2010\\\/05\\\/cimg2367.jpg?w=48&h=48&crop=1\"}, {\"title\":\"Side\",\"caption\":\"\",\"thumbnail\":\"http:\\\/\\\/jkontherun.files.wordpress.com\\\/2010\\\/05\\\/cimg2366.jpg?w=48&h=48&crop=1\"}, {\"title\":\"Side- base extended\",\"caption\":\"\",\"thumbnail\":\"http:\\\/\\\/jkontherun.files.wordpress.com\\\/2010\\\/05\\\/cimg2365.jpg?w=48&h=48&crop=1\"}, {\"title\":\"iPad inserted\",\"caption\":\"\",\"thumbnail\":\"http:\\\/\\\/jkontherun.files.wordpress.com\\\/2010\\\/05\\\/cimg2363.jpg?w=48&h=48&crop=1\"}, {\"title\":\"Portrait\",\"caption\":\"\",\"thumbnail\":\"http:\\\/\\\/jkontherun.files.wordpress.com\\\/2010\\\/05\\\/cimg2362.jpg?w=48&h=48&crop=1\"}, {\"title\":\"Landscape\",\"caption\":\"\",\"thumbnail\":\"http:\\\/\\\/jkontherun.files.wordpress.com\\\/2010\\\/05\\\/cimg2376.jpg?w=48&h=48&crop=1\"}, {\"title\":\"Tilted back\",\"caption\":\"\",\"thumbnail\":\"http:\\\/\\\/jkontherun.files.wordpress.com\\\/2010\\\/05\\\/cimg2372.jpg?w=48&h=48&crop=1\"}, {\"title\":\"Upright\",\"caption\":\"\",\"thumbnail\":\"http:\\\/\\\/jkontherun.files.wordpress.com\\\/2010\\\/05\\\/cimg2373.jpg?w=48&h=48&crop=1\"}];\n\t\t\t\t   <\/script><\/p>\n<div id='gallery'>\n<ol>\n<li><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"610\" src=\"http:\/\/jkontherun.files.wordpress.com\/2010\/05\/cimg2367.jpg?w=610\" alt=\"\" \/><\/li>\n<li><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"610\" src=\"http:\/\/jkontherun.files.wordpress.com\/2010\/05\/cimg2366.jpg?w=610\" alt=\"\" \/><\/li>\n<li><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"610\" src=\"http:\/\/jkontherun.files.wordpress.com\/2010\/05\/cimg2365.jpg?w=610\" alt=\"\" \/><\/li>\n<li><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"610\" src=\"http:\/\/jkontherun.files.wordpress.com\/2010\/05\/cimg2363.jpg?w=610\" alt=\"\" \/><\/li>\n<li><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"610\" src=\"http:\/\/jkontherun.files.wordpress.com\/2010\/05\/cimg2362.jpg?w=610\" alt=\"\" \/><\/li>\n<li><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"610\" src=\"http:\/\/jkontherun.files.wordpress.com\/2010\/05\/cimg2376.jpg?w=610\" alt=\"\" \/><\/li>\n<li><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"610\" src=\"http:\/\/jkontherun.files.wordpress.com\/2010\/05\/cimg2372.jpg?w=610\" alt=\"\" \/><\/li>\n<li><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"610\" src=\"http:\/\/jkontherun.files.wordpress.com\/2010\/05\/cimg2373.jpg?w=610\" alt=\"\" \/><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<div id='gallery-nav-outer'>\n<div class=\"loader\" id=\"gallery-loading\"><span>Loading<\/span><\/div>\n<p><span id='gallery-next' class='nav' title='Next Image'>Next<\/span><span id='gallery-prev' class='nav' title='Previous Image'>Previous<\/span><\/p>\n<div id='gallery-nav-inner'>\n<div id='gallery-nav'><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"gallery-meta\">\n<div class=\"count\">Picture <span id=\"gallery-count\">1<\/span> of 8 <\/div>\n<h5 id=\"gallery-title\">Skadoosh front<\/h5>\n<p id=\"gallery-caption\">\n<\/div>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" border=\"0\" src=\"http:\/\/stats.wordpress.com\/b.gif?host=jkontherun.com&#038;blog=4479943&#038;post=63478&#038;subd=jkontherun&#038;ref=&#038;feed=1\" \/><\/p>\n<div class=\"feedflare\">\n<a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/jkOnTheRun?a=K8GQm9J-c48:CMoNpTJyNas:D7DqB2pKExk\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/jkOnTheRun?i=K8GQm9J-c48:CMoNpTJyNas:D7DqB2pKExk\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/jkOnTheRun?a=K8GQm9J-c48:CMoNpTJyNas:V_sGLiPBpWU\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/jkOnTheRun?i=K8GQm9J-c48:CMoNpTJyNas:V_sGLiPBpWU\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/jkOnTheRun?a=K8GQm9J-c48:CMoNpTJyNas:dnMXMwOfBR0\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/jkOnTheRun?d=dnMXMwOfBR0\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/jkOnTheRun?a=K8GQm9J-c48:CMoNpTJyNas:yIl2AUoC8zA\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/jkOnTheRun?d=yIl2AUoC8zA\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/jkOnTheRun?a=K8GQm9J-c48:CMoNpTJyNas:F7zBnMyn0Lo\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/jkOnTheRun?i=K8GQm9J-c48:CMoNpTJyNas:F7zBnMyn0Lo\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a>\n<\/div>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~r\/jkOnTheRun\/~4\/K8GQm9J-c48\" height=\"1\" width=\"1\"\/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When I first looked at stands for the iPad I was taken by the metal Skadoosh stand by Jadu.
