of the base at the perimeter of the front face of the electronic device to retain the subject device in a landscape orientation it is slid in from the side between the arms in this case the side edges of the electronic device press against the brackets as seen in fig2 the contact surfaces of the arm 123 that contact the electronic devices edges have a curvature that is the compliment of the curvature of the device edges the four electronic device positions are achieved by the two stand to table options times the two electronic device to stand options in addition the stand can be turned 180 degrees into a hook mode as in the stand positions the electronic device can be inserted into the base in both a portrait and a landscape orientation a first embodiment is seen in fig1 9 this embodiment is mechanically coupled to the electronic device it is sized for by sliding the device in between a back wall and four bracket arms fig1 shows a perspective view of this first embodiment stand 100 holding an electronic device 50 shown on a dashed line the two main parts of the stand are its leg 101 and the base holder 102 the holder has for retaining arms 104 and a front surface 103 and a back surface 105 because of the wide flexibility in use and mounting the u201c upper u201d and u201c lower u201d extremities will be.
