jobygm2There are times when you really need some way to hold your iPhone steady while you take a picture, ride a bike, or walk while pushing something. The catch is that most tripods aren’t flexible. Joby makes a line of flexible tripods called the Gorillapod camera tripods and the company has unveiled a new one for the iPhone 3G and 3G S.

The device is called the Gorillamobile for 3G /3GS, is completely flexible, and will hold the phone on most any surface that you can wrap the tripod legs around. It will hold your iPhone at the grocery store on the cart so your kid can watch video or you can use the calculator. You can also use it to support the phone while you watch movies at your desk.
