         2 . The device of  claim 1 , wherein the at least one spring metal strip extends along the length of the wrist wrap. 
     
     
         3 . The device of  claim 2 , wherein the at least one spring metal strip is substantially parallel to a longitudinal axis of the wrist wrap. 
     
     
         4 . The device of  claim 1 , wherein the device is movable between a flat configuration in which the wrist wrap is unrolled and substantially flat and a plurality of rolled configurations. 
     
     
         5 . The device of  claim 4 , wherein the plurality of rolled configurations include a tube configuration, a spiral configuration, a J configuration, or a combination thereof. 
     
     
         6 . The device of  claim 5 , wherein the tube configuration includes an oval cross-section, a circular cross-section, or a combination thereof. 
     
     
         7 . A device for supporting an electronic device, the device comprising:
 a wrist wrap; and   a device engagement housing removably engaged with the wrist wrap, wherein the device engagement housing is configured to receive a portable electronic device.   
     
     
         8 . The device of  claim 7 , wherein the device engagement housing may be substantially parallel to a central axis around which the wrist wrap is rolled. 
     
     
         9 . The device of  claim 7 , wherein the device engagement housing may be substantially perpendicular to a central axis around which the wrist wrap is rolled. 
     
     
         10 . The device of  claim 7 , wherein the wrist wrap includes a proximal end, a middle, and a distal end and wherein the device engagement housing is engaged with the distal end of the wrist wrap. 
     
     
         11 . The device of  claim 10 , wherein the device engagement housing is engaged with the middle of the wrist wrap. 
     
     
         12 . A device for support an electronic device, the device comprising:
 a wrist wrap, wherein the wrist wrap comprises a proximal end, a distal end, an interior surface, and an exterior surface;   a proximal exterior fastener affixed on the exterior surface of the wrist wrap near the proximal end of the wrist wrap;   a distal exterior fastener affixed on the exterior surface of the wrist wrap near the distal end of the wrist wrap, wherein the distal exterior fastener is configured to removably engage a fastener associated with a device engagement housing, a fastener associated with a portable electronic device, or a combination thereof; and   a distal interior fastener affixed to the interior surface of the wrist wrap near the distal end of the wrap, wherein the distal interior fastener is configured to removably engage the proximal exterior fastener on the exterior surface of the wrist wrap when the wrist wrap is disposed around an object.   
     
     
         13 . The device of  claim 10 , wherein the wrist wrap comprises an interior wrist wrap layer and an exterior wrist wrap layer. 
     
     
         14 . The device of  claim 13 , wherein the wrist wrap further comprises a first spring metal strip between the interior wrist wrap layer and the exterior wrist wrap layer. 
     
     
         15 . The device of  claim 14 , wherein the interior wrist wrap layer and the exterior wrist wrap layer are affixed to each other around a perimeter of the first spring metal strip. 
     
     
         16 . The device of  claim 15 , wherein the wrist wrap further comprises a second spring metal strip between the interior wrist wrap layer and the exterior wrist wrap layer. 
     
     
         17 . The device of  claim 16 , wherein the interior wrist wrap layer and the exterior wrist wrap layer are affixed to each other around a perimeter of the second spring metal strip. 
     
     
         18 . The device of  claim 17 , wherein the first spring metal strip and the second spring metal strip are configured to move the wrist wrap between a flat configuration and one of a plurality of rolled configurations. 
     
     
         19 . The device of  claim 17 , wherein the interior wrist wrap layer and the exterior wrist wrap layer are affixed to each other around a perimeter of the interior wrist wrap layer and a perimeter of the exterior wrist wrap layer. 
     
     
         20 . The device of  claim 18 , wherein the wrist wrap further comprises and edge bead affixed to the wrist wrap around a perimeter of the wrist wrap.
