Glif: an iPhone 4 tripod mount & stand

For the past few months my friend Thomas Gerhardt and I have been designing an iPhone 4 accessory. It is a tripod mount, and doubles as a stand to prop up your phone at various angles and orientations. As you can see from the image, and can probably guess as a reader of this blog, the goal was to make something simple and elegant. 

We are both very excited that the design has come to fruition, but we are not finished yet. Today, we launched a project on Kickstarter to help fund the injection molding manufacturing process that we will use to create the Glif. For anyone interested in owning one, consider this a pre-order for your very own Glif. 

We hope that you all love this thing. Here’s what it can do:
