I agree with Adriano. The flip out "wings" idea would be good. Another idea
too also add, would be to use some self stick Velcro to hold the keyboard to
the stand. Put the fuzzy side on the keyboard so it would sit nice when not
in the stand. Using Velcro, you could make sure the keyboard area is big
enough for either a Newton keyboard or a fold away keyboard without keyboard
slippage. Also, I am interested in how you keep the arm in place that holds
the Newton at an angle. I didn't see any kind of bracing arm or locking
mechanism. But with these concerns, and the fact it folds flat would make it
the ideal stand for a Newton. I also would be interested in one.

I would welcome your comments before I proceed to develop this idea and
will continue to muck around with it until I have a well balanced model=20=
for my own use.
