im waiting for the active version to be available for the u.s. but im curious how well will it work with a full body skin protecter or even a hard care or rubber case?

from experience with previous devices, brodit mounts fit pretty snug. I would like to hear from someone who has one of the Brodit mounts for N900 and a zagg body shield fitted.
As far as any other type of case that is thicker than a body shield, i would expect them to be a complete no-no. Won't fit. Would need to be removed prior to inserting your N900 into the Brodit mount.
I have the brodit passive holder in my car and the zagg shield on the N900. The N900 will not fit into the holder with the full body cover. The side cover parts of the shield interferes with the "holding grip" of the holder, damaging the cover while sliding the N900 into the holder. Also the additional thickness added to the N900 by the zagg back cover will make fitting the N900 to the holder really really tight (too tight IMHO).
I removed all but the screen cover and now it fits really nicely in the holder. Win some, loose some...
thanks for the feedback. i figured it might be that way.
have you used the fm transmitter whilst the N900 in being charged by the Brodit active mount? i have heard reports about other chargers that they create so much interferance its almost unusable.
edit : just re-read your post and noticed its a passive mount you have. same question to anyone else

Man, that stinks. IMO, it shouldn't be THAT tight of a fit to where a layer of microns interferes with it.
well im glad i didnt wait because the full body would of been great instead i ordered the PDAIR metal case and PDAIR CAR MOUNT just unsure if it can be positioned in landscape mode at the same time.
