Found this over at xda and had to share. This is funny as hell, pretty functional but it might cause some problems with your usb connection down the line. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=473140
I'm still laughing at myself...check it out...a large binder clip makes a great display stand with charging functionality. Just pull off the squeezing clips after you clamp down on the USB plug. It's actually pretty stable too. I'm sure you could even velcro it to your desk for more stability

the hinges are a little too long for the pro so i have to think of a way that i can trim them up neatly as well as take some thickness off from them since they are a little to thick.

yeah i was thinkin that same thing after I looked at my girls tilt and realized that there wasn't enough room between the pro's keyboard and the edge of the phone for the hinges to fit properly...damn I gotta try and convince my girl to let me break her phone so I can steal them
