1. A system for supporting a mobile device, comprising:
a base; and
a top collapsibly coupled to the base, the top being configured to retain the mobile device and being configured to lock at an angle with respect to the base, the angle having a vertex, the top and the base being configured such that a center of mass of a combination of the mobile device and the system is a nonzero distance along the base from the vertex of the angle and such that the combination is stable with respect to rotations around an axis including the vertex for the base being supported by a support, for the angle being at least forty-five degrees and not more than one hundred degrees, for the base being oriented perpendicular to a direction of local gravity, and for the base being free to rotate away from the support;
wherein the mobile device has a mobile device base having an edge and a mobile device display coupled to the mobile device base at the edge, wherein the mobile device base is retained by the top, and wherein the base and the top are configured to be stable with respect to the rotations around the axis for the angle being at least sixty degrees and not more than seventy degrees and the mobile device display being perpendicular to the direction of local gravity.
