1. A protective case for retaining, displaying, and storing an electronic device, comprising: a first cover portion;a second cover portion hingedly interconnected to said first cover portion, said second cover portion comprising a substantially rigid planar member;a substantially rigid support member interconnected to and extending from said second cover portion, said support member for supporting the electronic device and impeding movement of the electronic device in at least one direction;a pliable wire member interconnected to an elastic biasing member and adapted to secure a portion of the electronic device; andsaid elastic biasing member interconnected to and in force-transmitting communication with said pliable wire member and said second cover portion, said biasing member retaining the electronic device in a secure position on said second cover portion, wherein said elastic biasing member conveys a biasing force to the electronic device to bias the electronic device against said substantially rigid support member. 2. The protective case of claim 1, wherein said second cover portion comprises a hinge, and wherein said second cover portion can be selectively inclined at a predetermined angle with respect to said first cover portion. 3. The protective case of claim 1, wherein said first cover portion comprises at least one of a plurality of channels and a plurality of raised ridges for selectively engaging a lateral edge of said second cover portion to provide selective positioning of said second cover portion. 4. The protective case of claim 3, wherein a first channel of said plurality of channels corresponds to a first angle of said second cover portion with respect to said first cover portion, and wherein a second channel of said plurality of channels corresponds to a second angle of said second cover portion with respect to said first cover portion. 5. The protective case of claim 1, wherein said support member is positioned proximate to a lower corner of said second cover portion. 6. A protective case for retaining, displaying, and storing an electronic device, comprising: a first cover portion;a second cover portion hingedly interconnected to said first cover portion, said second cover portion comprising a substantially rigid planar member, an upper end, and a lower end;a substantially rigid support member interconnected to said lower end of said second cover portion for receiving and supporting an electronic device in an elevated orientation; andan elastic member interconnected to said second cover portion and providing a biasing force on the electronic device when it is resting on said support member;a wire loop member interconnected to said elastic member, the wire loop member adapted to conform to a corner geometry of the electronic device such that said elastic member and said wire loop member provide a retaining force to the electronic device in conjunction with said substantially rigid support member;wherein the substantially rigid support member is provided at an opposing lateral end of the one of a plurality of differently sized electronic devices from said elastic member; andwherein said second cover portion comprises a hinge member such that a portion of said second cover portion is rotatable with respect to said first cover portion wherein said first cover portion comprises a plurality of channels for selectively receiving a lateral edge of said second cover portion at an angle relative to said first cover portion to provide selective positioning of said second cover portion. 7. The protective case of claim 6, wherein a first channel of said plurality of channels selectively receives said lateral edge of said second cover portion corresponding to a first angle of said second cover portion with respect to said first cover portion, and wherein a second channel of said plurality of channels corresponds to a second angle of said second cover portion with respect to said first cover portion. 8. The protective case of claim 6, wherein the case is selectively positionable in at least a closed position, an open position, and an angled position of use. 9. The protective case of claim 6, wherein said wire loop member comprises at least one of a non-abrasive material, a non-slip material, a scratch-resistant material, and a polyurethane coating. 10. The protective case of claim 6, wherein said second cover portion is rotatable with respect to said first cover portion about at least two parallel axes of rotation. 11. A method for securing and using a tablet electronic device within a portable storage case comprising: providing said portable storage case with a first cover portion hingedly interconnected to a second cover portion by a hinge, said second cover portion comprising: a substantially rigid planar member;a support member interconnected to said second cover portion for supporting the tablet electronic device and resisting movement of the tablet electronic device in at least one direction; anda biasing member interconnected to said second cover portion to engage a corner of the tablet electronic device;a wire loop member interconnected to said biasing member, the wire loop member adapted to conform to a corner geometry of the tablet electronic device such that said biasing member and said wire loop member provide a force to the electronic tablet device,engaging a first edge of the tablet electronic device with said support member;inserting said corner of the tablet electronic device within said wire loop member;placing a back surface of the tablet electronic device substantially flush with said second cover portion; andpositioning said wire loop member to engage said corner of the tablet electronic device to provide a force to retain the tablet electronic device in a secure position against said support member. 12. The method of claim 11, wherein said portable storage case comprises at least two biasing members in force-transmitting communication with said second cover portion. 13. The method of claim 11, wherein an interior portion of said first cover portion comprises at least one of a plurality of channels and a plurality of raised ridges for selectively receiving a peripheral edge of said second cover portion to adjust an angle of said second cover portion relative to said first cover portion. 14. The method of claim 11, further comprising rotating said hinge and providing an edge of said second cover portion at an obtuse angle relative to said first cover portion. 15. The method of claim 11, wherein said biasing member comprises a resilient loop adapted to engage a corner of the tablet electronic device, said resilient loop interconnected to an elastic strap interconnected to said second cover portion.
