I know this may sound silly, but I'm still trying to get used to holding the N810 in landscape position. I tend to use the N810 while horizontal (in bed) which makes it even harder to hold. I'm used to the comfort of portrait position I had with my pocket pc.
The N810 is a lot heavier and my left wrist is killing me. Its easy to mishandle and drop this unit.

I tried slipping my hand between the unit and the popout desk stand, but thats not very comfortable either.

Has anyone invented a easy hand holder or attachment that would make it easier to hold?

Uhh, actually you can rotate the screen to portrait mode. Search the forums for rotation. Can't really help you on the physical part...

I also love to read while in bed, and find it difficult to hold my n800 like this. Tried today rotate to portrait mode, but I find surfing the web while in this way worse, have to scroll horizontally too much.
I'm really interested too in a way to hold the unit in landscape mode while laid down. Has anyone gone through this too?

Put your eblow on the mattress then use your right hands palm to hold theN810.

popout stand one is the way I do it.

If you install the rotation stuff, rotating the display left and opening the keyboard seems to give you a little grip you can wrap your thumb around and makes things comfortable to use.


I know what you mean though I think the Nintendo DS exercised the arms and wrists well enough so I don't notice it.

I'm aware of the rotation hack, its a partial solution, but not yet official enough for me yet.
I got out the car mount and adjusted it to fit in my fist, but again a partial solution. Maybe add some kind of handle.
The first thing I'm going look for is a non slip wrap, but how would it accomodate the keyboard
.

If you use a case like the Boxwave Designio or one of the similar cases for the N810 on eBay - then you can take the cover and strap and snap the strap to the case kinda backwards (sorry it's hard to explain). This makes a nice slot/loop for a finger or four (depending on the size of your fingers) to rest comfortably while holding the N810.

I've always opted (across many a gadget) for an elaborate pillow / book / whatever else comes to hand solution to achieve a 'surface' to work off...

Though being late at night and in creative mood, I'm just sitting here with my guitar and a trigger capo (google it if you're not a muso!), and thinking that it could make a nice utility handle. And it does... sort of. Works better on an N800 with more casing to grip onto, but you can fiddle around with it... just a thought
