yea, I was also looking a navigation solution.
It seems to cup holder is a good choice though if you want to have your phone in close arm reach while driving.

Anyway, do you actually own any of these?
How is the suctioning when used without the adhesive stuff? Will it securely hold a Touch? How long will it reach when mounted to the windshield?
And most of all, will I be able to access the USB port?

have you tried this with a phone of that size? I mean, will it support the weight? How do these vent mounts work? Is there any adhesive involved?

Thank You
