Here's more info from MagneticNorth:


MoviePeg is a simple yet elegant portable iPhone stand that allows the world's iPhone users to watch movies and more, hassle free. Now there's no need to awkwardly prop up your iPhone with a bag or an over complicated tripod contraption. With a MoviePeg in your pocket you'll only ever be one step away from relaxed viewing heaven.

Made by interactive design company magneticNorth (mN), MoviePeg provides a solution to a problem, namely - why isn't there a subtle way to hold the iPhone in place while watching a movie? Something that doesn't get in the way, yet is flexible enough to hold the iPhone vertically and horizontally, and more importantly, isn't ugly.

Designed ergonomically to fit the curves of the iPhone , MoviePeg isn't just for watching movies. Use it in the kitchen when following recipes; with the guys watching sports games, as a night-stand for your alarm clock, on location as a handy "tripod" for your camera, in the bedroom when watching a how-to make-up tutorial, or keeping the kids entertained without the evidence of sticky little fingers.

Perfect for using at home, work or on the move MoviePeg is made from recyclable material and comes in six tasty colours.

MoviePeg is available to buy online at movie-peg.com for £4.99 P+P. It is also available on Amazon.co.uk and is stocked in Liberty, London and Colette, Paris.

Brendan Dawes, Creative Director, magneticNorth (mN)
“Good design is always about removing things until you're left with something pure - free of unneeded "noise", so it's intended use can better shine through. MoviePeg is a simple, almost invisible object, without complication that we hope will become as invaluable as your iPhone.”

Lou Cordwell, Managing Director, magneticNorth (mN)
“MoviePeg is the fourth magneticNorth (mN) product to be brought to market. As with all our work, its conception is rooted in the reactions to the things we see around us everyday. MoviePeg is the culmination of all product learnings to date and we'll be excited to watch people's reaction to it and to see it's story unfold over the coming months.”
