Awesome!
This thing is slick. I just got mine today and was impressed with the versitality of it. It not only will clamp to your iMac, but anywhere that has a ledge of about a couple inches in thickness. I had it mounted on my desk (looks freaking awesome) and then I mounted it on my night stand for when I got to bed for some hands free use for watching movies or something. The price is a little steep but your getting high quality from Twelve South along with a pretty sweet companion for your iPad 2. Highly recommended. …

Awesome product!
Rock solid construction, I have my iPad now floating on the same eye-level to the screen of my MacBook, which itself is raised up off the desk on a stand to be more ergonomic. Didn't experience what other reviewers say as too flexible and not tight enough--perhaps the angle of my setup is a bit different as I have it mounted from the back ledge of my desk. I can freely rotate and adjust my iPad to any infinitesimal variation of angle I want, and I simply tightened the ball-and-socket joint enough to the resistance/pressure level I wanted. When mounted, I keep my iPad plugged in and turned off auto-lock so the screen is always-on. And I love how they included these small cable clips to neatly tuck away the charging cable out of sight behind my iPad. Overall, a well thought out product. My coworkers are all envious of my "Minority Report" style setup. …

Not Worth It
Useless, in fact. Will not support the weight of an iPad when attached to an iMac stand.

Do not buy the Twelvesouth hoverbar for iPad
Not worth it. The arm is not stiff enough to hold the iPad 2 the way it is shown in the pictures on their site. After a few minu tes the weight brings the ipad down to my desk. …

How wide does the clamp open?

The clamp will open roughly 2.0cm - 2.5 cm and will still be able to clamp onto a surface. Therefore the desk / object the HoverBar is clamped onto needs to be around 2.0cm thick or less. …
