The only downside is putting the phone in and out of the cradle. this might scratch the phone housing isn't it?

Mine hasn't put 1 scratch on it. The top part has a spring and bends back to easily to insert/remove. You can also just detach the actual holster part, leaving the mount inplace. Supposedly it works as a dash mount to, I'd assume it have to be a smooth surface.

Godd to hear it doesn't damage the shell, is there a version of a custom une like this that's vent mount?
There's been cars in my work car park broken into becase of the tell tale mount or suction cup mark from GPS units...

Nothing fancy, it just has to work and be reasonably priced.

I came across those windshield suction mounts...but I'm not sure if those are legal in California.

Thank You

I use Kensigton windshield mount.. it is universal, not only for touch,
but does the job well enough

Thats what I use, it works great.

I have this as well. Its amazingly well built especially considering how inexpensive it is. Gives you access to all buttons and rotates for landscape use.

I've just received mine and it's great, no buttons blocked, the USB port and reset button are free.

Even the camera is not fully blocked by the mount.

Rock solid installation, and the phone slips in and out fast and with just one hand.

Very glad I chose this one instead of a generic mount.

I use a powered mount:

(Whom I ordered from)

or:

http://www.wirelessground.com/touchcarmount.html

It powers the touch and provides a speakerphone....also a 2.5 mm audio out jack to go into my stereo.

3 issues:

1. The audio out seems to be audio limited to protect the small handsfree speaker - read little bass output

2. The cradle must be lifted of of the mounting arm in one hand and then insert the phone with the other (not a big deal, just hang it on the arm when done - when it was new 1/2 the time the insertion would cause a soft reset on the phone - though it has been a long time since it has done it now - I use it every day.

3. Will not work with any extended battery.

Looks good! You think it will work with mogul/titan ppc6800?

EDIT: they do have one for Mogul as well:

EDIT 2: I purchased this mount.
- Quality is top notch. The cradle fits and holds the phone perfectly. The mount grips the windshield, fits and orients robustly.
- Atleast the Mogul model has this defect in that it continuously keeps the camera button depressed. I contacted the distributor to check if that was a random defect or a design flaw. They replied back stating that it could only be a design flaw. I liked the mount so much that I decided to customize it myself. I cut the portion of the cradle which was depressing the camera button with a hot knife and voila! Works great! really good quality.
- Only limitations are that the resolution of its movements is not as fine as I would have liked. Still not something you see as a compromise at all.

Hi guys -

I am a reseller for ProClip (I focus on Prius products), but I thought I'd let you know that I've posted the Touch holder up in our Shop. It comes with free shipping, which saves you about $8.50 from buying it through ProClip.

If anyone needs the Vehicle Mounts, let me know and I'll extend the same free shipping discount to you.

Just trying to give back a little to this site that has turned my Touch into my favorite phone ever.
