The Speck SeeThru hard-shell case offers drop protection, rubberized side grips (so you’re less likely to drop it in the first place), and a clever two-piece design. Pop off the bottom of the case to sync your iPhone or prop it up for movie watching: The bottom end doubles as a stand.

Made from translucent polycarbonate plastic, the SeeThru is available in five colors: clear, black, pink, red, and purple. (No blue? No green? Helloooo.) It sells for $29.95, which seems like a reasonable price given its dual functionality. Of course, you could always take the cheap way out and turn a business card into an iPhone stand. Or, for something a little more durable, try turning a MiniDV tape case into an iPhone stand.

That said, every iPhone owner should have a decent case, and this one not only looks cool, it gets extra points for practicality. Agree? Disagree? Let me know in the Comments. [via Gizmodo]

    I'm bummed they don't offer this for the touch, although they do have a belt-clip touch case that can double as a stand...
