Best car kit for landscape GPS cradle?
 
so, thanks to xpsworm, I have GPS on my TP2 now...so what's the best cradle/carkit to leave it up on the dash in landscape while I drive?

the ProClip is by far the best car bracket there is, but it is "coming soon" for the TP2

I went with this cheap and simple solution. Waiting for it in the mail

I use the one from Sprint. It isn't inexpensive, but it is cushioned on both sides and it quite adjustable.

Actually, I'm thinking about this one. Looks simple enough and not too much bulk on the sides. Let me know what you think. I have the GSM (T-Mobile) version without the tapered edges but I think it still might work.

I got the bracketron one here- its a little bulky but being able to swivel it makes it great if you want to switch from landscape to portrait. Also you can adjust it to almost any viewing angle. I picked it up at bestbuy for $20. My only problem is deciding which way I want my TP2- portrait makes it easy to charge and plug into the fm transmitter- landscape seems better when using igo8 (but I'm not sure!)

I remember seidio had one for the mogul back in the day which was the best one I have seen I hope they would make one like it for the tp2. The only problem was that it cost $120.

thanks- I thought about this one but if you look carefully the one I linked to has a 360 degree ball joint which lets you rotate it to any position (rather than just rotating in just one plane)- I hope I explained that right.

Happened to see this one while at verizon. actually like it pretty well. although it didn't work out too well for the vents in my particular car.

It is also very easy to rotate phone from upright to landscape.
