Detachable self-supporting display device

A device comprising:

• a base having a first top surface and a first bottom surface, a first magnetic component, a first mechanical attachment component, and a first end opposite the first mechanical attachment component;
• and
• a cover having a second top surface and a second bottom surface, a second magnetic component, a second mechanical attachment component, and a second end opposite the second mechanical attachment component, the second bottom surface configured to mate with the first top surface,
• wherein in a first orientation, the first and second mechanical attachment components are disengaged, and the first and second magnetic components are engaged so as to magnetically hold the cover onto the base and to permit the cover and the base to swivel with respect to each other about a position of the first and second magnetic components, and
• wherein in a second orientation, the first and second magnetic components are disengaged, the first and second mechanical attachment components directly engage and contact each other with the first end opposite the first mechanical attachment component contacting a surface and the second end opposite the second mechanical attachment component contacting the surface, such that the base and the cover are self-supported in the second orientation.
