Just a quick question, has anyone else had any dealings with car-mounts.co.uk? I only ask because at the point of ordering yesterday I received an email titled "Thank you for you order" and starting "We will be in touch as soon as possible about your order, the details of which are as follows:" then showing all the details.

But I haven't heard anything further today. Which I was expecting since I ordered around 5:30pm yesterday.

Thanks,
Dex

I've posted a review of a n900 car kit here, its from mobilefun.

You can watch the video of the n900 lookin like a carputer here

What i need now is an L-shaped micro USB charger plug. It would look much tidier and less chance of being knocked by someone in the passenger seat.

It looks nice, tho I don't know if it would look good in my VW Jetta, considering where the lighter is.

The other problem is that it only seems to be available in the UK.

I'm struggling here trying to find a good solution. I have a mount which used to hold my XM Radio. What I want is a holder that I can put there, but I'm not finding one that doesn't look humongous and ugly. ProClip would be the best solution, but its price and the fact that it is so fricking tight that it can't accommodate an Invisible Shield is a non-starter for me.

looks nice, I'm waiting for a brodit passive holder and pro clip, but personally, I want the phone higher so i can change stuff while I'm watching the road. The bad thing is, that the charger cable will be over the interior, my lighter is placed as low as yours.

hi all

I find an interesting phone holder website for n900

http://www.car-mounts.co.uk/products.asp?cat=22590

That is just for the Brodit mounts which have already been mentioned and available from quite a few suppliers now.

Interesting multi-device card holder:

I just got one. I'll let you know what I think after a couple of days.

Sadly, I can't recommend the Dash Genie (above) for the N900

With the N900 in portrait, the protruding camera cover prevents the phone lying flat against the holder and as a result it only manages to make about 25% contact with the adhesive 'blob'. This does hold the phone, but not strongly. A solution (which I'll try) would be to cut the holder off above the 'blob' which should then allow the N900 to lie flat against the 'blob and make full contact.

With the N900 in landscape, again the protruding camera lens prevents a full contact, but you can offset the phone to the left to avoid this. Even offset the phone only makes about 75% contact, as the 'blob' is slightly too high. You could physically raise the phone ~15mm by placing something underneath it to make fuller contact with the adhesive blob.

Finally, I don't think the matt finish and the engraved "NOKIA NSeries" branding on the back of the N900 lends itself to making a good adhesion.

Conclusion: the holder holds the N900 but not securely. I'd therefore say that this holder is not suitable for the N900

Hey, I have the brodit active mount, which is great. However if I plug a 3.5mm jack lead between the n900 and the aux in I get serious interference when the n900 is charging.
I don't get this problem in the house when I am charging it and have it plugged into external speakers.

anyone have some advice on how to solve this issue? It's really quite annoying.

Thanks
