Griffin’s SeeSaw stand and No. 2 Pencil Stylus for the school-friendly iPad

by Gavril Mankoo

Griffin Technology has recently announced a great way to make the iPad a little more user-friendly in school! The newest developments by the company that include the SeeSaw stand and the No. 2 Pencil Stylus, are crafted for use by younger technology users and are ideal for the classroom. The SeeSaw stand is lightweight and portable, complete with a built-in carry handle that turns an iPad into a tiny workstation. This can be placed on a table top, enabling the iPad to be used by one child or a group. Also, the stand allows portrait as well as landscape use and has all its accessibility features exposed.


The No. 2 Pencil Stylus on the other hand literally gives the good old pencil a modern dash of technology. This one’s compatible with almost every capacitive touchscreen and has a high-sensitivity rubber tip that mimics a finger without leaving behind fingerprints or smudges. The Griffin’s No. 2 Pencil Stylus is inspired by the classic pencil and has a hexagonal cross section that keeps it from rolling off. The stylus is ideal for sketching, drawing, editing text and also engaging with applications and games. While the SeeSaw is priced at $34.99, the No. 2 Pencil Stylus comes for $19.99 a pop.
