Today I asked Brodit (the company doing the ProClip mounts) about a mount for the HTC Flyer. The response was that such a mount will be ready soon, hopefully by the end of next week, and then some time to get it to your favourite supplier.
I'll buy one as soon as possible and let you know what I think about it.
I'm also waiting for GelaSkins to do a skin for the Flyer, anyone heard of their plans?

Hmm... I have Proclip for my Desire Z in my car can't imagine the Flyer fitting in... Post pics. Beware though most Proclip holders only for the naked device... With a film skin.
arkon 7" tablet holder works great
I am using arkon 7" tablet holder from Amazon for $17 . The nice thing is the holder fits in the base I already had for my Droid. I would post a link but I'm a noob.

Somthing new on this? I had best expiriences with Brodit/ProClip in the past, so I would like to take this holder for my new HTC Flyer. On the official site I didn`t found any information about holder for our device...
Holder for Flyer
There is info about holder for Flyer on Brodit's site. But only passive . And no photo... Waiting...
Here's the Brodit page for the passive Flyer holder. Good sign: pen holder.
http://brodit.se/product.html?id=511265
Got an e-mail from the german Brodit retailer brodit-shop.de - the HTC Flyer mount will be available for order from the middle of this week and the delivery time - 3 weeks.

That's ridicolous!
Why should it be available in this week and then have a delivery time of 3 weeks?
Damn!
I am also trying to get one somewhere.
Please let me know if you find a retailer that actually can also deliver it.
Thanks!
I just order that here - ...mountonus.com. Can't post links...
There is a range of Brodit holders available, though still no Brodit active holder with car charger.
I got my passive holder today (from a Swedish reseller, I live in Sweden).
Pen holder is good, holds the pen firmly.
I paid approx €40 for it. I found sellers in the UK (including mountonus) indicating a price of £25, called to Brodit to complain about the price difference but they didn't comment. My reseller thinks that a price of £25 is incorrect (but I've seen more than one with that price on the internet).
Have anyone had a price confirmed?
The passive variants are now available on ProClipUSA for US customers:

I'm looking for a car-mount that will fit the Wizard.
I don't want a speaker or any connectors, just a mount, preferably with lots of foam so it doesn't squeek and rattle. I also don't want a 'window sucker' model.
I've googled it but can't find anything that says it will work with the Wizard.
Anyone seen/got one that will fit?
Me to.
I've been using Brodit mounts for the last couple of years but I keep swaping cars (between my own and a company one) recently.
This is the most promising one I've found so far.
http://www.arkon.com/pdamount.php
I like the look of this one because when I get a better case (flip type) there should be room to mount with it left in side.
Nice
Good range. Arkon only do a 'sucker' windshield mount for the jam/k-jam though.
Still looking.
Is there a UK site with them?
Any ideas when K-Jam accessories will appear? I want some screen protectors and don't like cutting bigger ones down to size.
Boxwave do some screen protectors and do ship to the UK.

Brodit is introducing a passive mount early this month (presumably 1st half).
Although I have not found any retailer selling it at the moment.
Cool I''ve been holding out for that one But I might get a cheap suction holder for the other cars I use.
I just bought a cheap HR Richter mini holder while I await a Brodit active holder.
Doesn't make sence for me to buy a passive holder now and an active holder in a while.

Halfords has a universal holder for £14.99 that held my Vario very securely when I tried it in the shop and did not obscure the speakers or the USB port. It came with a window sucker and a sticky pad option. I'm not sure if there were clip or magnetic options as well.
Tesco have a universal holder for £4.97 that clips to the air vents. It was in a bubble pack and I could not tell whether it would open wide enough. But I don't suppose Tesco would object to a refund if it didn't, since there is no way to try before you buy.
Further to my post above I just bought a universal holder from a Vodafone shop for £5.00. It has air vent and sticky pad options and a slick/smooth adjustment operation - better than other units I tried for £10+. There is a gap at the bottom for headphones and USB charging if needed.
I don't like the idea of blowing hot air all over the back of the phone for hours in the middle of winter so I've plumped for the sticky option. I have yet to test it on the move with the Vario attached. I'll leave it overnight for the adhesive to stay stuck and then see how it goes.

I've got one on my wizard and it looks great. I messed the first one up and i stuck the wrong side down on the screen and it gave an oil kind of effect on the screen, i'm sure the peel off sticker was on the wrong side, anyway i binned that and used one of the others i got and now it looks and fits great. had it on a few weeks now and its not scratched yet.
my last boxwave screen protector lasted over a year.
Hi all,

Has anybody seen a car holder for the HTC Touch HD? Not the univeral ones which fit for a lot of different devices. I mean holders like the ones from Richter or Brodit.
I couldn't find any touch hd specific ... looks like these vendors are slow with expending their product portfolio!

I don't know about other countries/suppliers, but in the neterlands, www.pdaplus.nl says the will have them in 1-2 weeks...
Well spotted Nooky, not even on their news page yet! This is the one I have been waiting for. Any UK suppliers yet?
Can you also use this holder in landscape mode?

DSL Developments, http://www.dsldevelopments.com/. Very helpful and now have them available to order. How soon they'll ship them, no idea.
They also offer a 3-in-1, with:
- Mini USB for charging
- 3,5 mm audion for sound out
- HTC Ext USB for original headset
Surely, if it only attaches to ExtUSB the 3.5mm and the ExtUSB for headset won't work? Connecting a HTC Headset from Polaris certainly fails on HD ExtUSB...

nf0 said:

If you buy the "tilt swivel" version; you can.
The opening to slide it in will remain on the short side, so if you tilt the holder 90 degrees the phone is held by the upper and lower side and the left OR right side (with the usb-plug).
I have had several holders from brodit for my HTC phones and the phone is always held so tight (without scratching!) that you won't have to worry that the phone will slide out sideways when in landscape-position.
Anyone used the Brodit Holder with their ProClip Mounting over the vent? I prefer not to drill holes or stick it!
I've used a Brodit Proclip on my last three cars, brilliant fit every time, latest is over the vent. Recommended.

Yes, I normaly use proclip over the vent so that I'll have the phone near to me and in clear view.
Brodit has amazing produts made of very good and solid plastic. Not like some low cost holders that you might find.
But I think it all depends on the car you have. Brodit normaly has several sugestions to place the proclip, so I think they have it for everyone taste.

I've upgraded from a HTC Trinity (which came with Herbert Richter car mount) and this works very well with the Touch HD - it's a slightly tighter fit, but very stable and allows the car charger to fit easily. Thought some people may find this useful at least as a stopgap until the proper Touch HD one is available
Hi,
What about a good holder that attaches to your windscreen? The Brodit ones are all very well but what happens if you are using a different car? Say if you go abroad and get a hire car, will the brodit holder be able to transfer?
the previously mentioned: Herbert Richter car mount uses a sucker. i am trying to decide between that and the brodit. Herbert Richter car mount isnt out yet for the HD.
Do either of them allow you to use it in landscape as well?
You can buy a sucker for the Brodit too if you prefer (or additionally):

Brodit holders come in two parts, a custom bit that holds the phone which is unique for each phone, and the proclip bit designed for your car. Where exactly on the dash it fits depends on which which car you have and which proclip you buy for your car. You're best off calling to find out, although most of them seem to have an option to fit over the central air vents.
Hi,
Any update??
I have preordered from mobilefun but still nothing.

What one did you get?, and did you get a in car charger with it?
I'm looking for one that attaches to the dash/air ventthat will also support a chrger.
Was looking at the Brodit one, and although they do look quite nice, £50+ for the holder and clip is a little steep in my mind.
I got the passive one, I already have a HTC car charger (with a pretty blue light). I only got the phone part as I already had the vent mount for my car from my previous phone. Thats the benefit really - you only need to change the phone bit. The Brodit mounts are a bit expensive but the quality is excellent and the phone fits really well

Cheers - one last question - I see the tilt and swivel, but to the rotate though 90°, so the phone can be viewed horitontally (i.e. when using it as a Sat Nav)?
Yes the mount is in two parts, the bit that attached to the car and the bit that the phone goes in. The connection between the two is a swivel joint

I have just bought the proclip and passive holder from dsl, then I bought a car charger from ebay, I will post what they are like as soon as they arrive, and if I'm clever enough to fit them in my car.
11/06/09
The cradle arrived today, it turned out that I actually ordered the wrong proclip, I intended to buy the one that bind to the right A/C vent of my (RHD) Corsa, but instead I ordered one that binds onto the bottom left of the dashboard. As it was though, I actually think the ordering error turned out for the better, the postion of the phone was still very readable, easily reachable, and it means that when I plug in the phone charger I won't see a wire dangling all the way across my dashboard, which would be unsightly as well as inconveineant. I would recommend this position of proclip for everyone, I know it seems strange that you need to look down at the phone, but when I took it out for a spin today it worked great.
Unsuprisingly, the cradle itself was fantastic way worth the extra money I paid for, the phone actually slips into position, I was sceptical at first about perfect fits, but the fit really was impeccable.
The fitting process was simple and straightforward (if I can do it anyone can) but requires a bit of brute force, but in my opinion that just came to show how sturdy the kit is. You know it's not going to go anywhere.
I have always used Brodit cradles for all my devices over the last few years. I find them reliable, very strong and easy to put together.
For some reason Brodit havent released a cradle for this device yet - has anyone got any ideas where i can get one that is for vents?
thanks

There are a few on ebay in the $12-15 range and some on Amazon in the $25 range. I just did a search for Samsung 7.7 vent mount.
sorry - for got to mention - i already bought one from ebay - that is the problem - hence my post
the ones on ebay are flimsy, lowsy horrible things...make sure you dont buy one. the ball and socket which allows it to swivel lost its stiffness after about 10 minutes of use and i just took it off. also the connection to the vent is weak at best. the connection to the actual plastic is so weak that when I turned a corner once the thing fell out!
i had a galaxy tab 7 inch and the brodit cradle for that was nice and solid - you would have to tug hard to move it anywhere - also the ball and socket was adjustable by just making the screw tighter

U r a legend! I been checking that site for months and gave up last week!
Always the way!
Hmm I've bought the official car mount already,
and i'm waiting it to arrive...
Just wondering, what's the advantage of car vent compared to car mount?
isnt' carmount more universal? because with this you have to choose clips specific to your car?
Very tempting, the good is that for my car, Dodge Caliber, there two options, the vent and center console, i might go with the center console option
Edit: i went to the US retailer website but they do not have the tab holder listed yet only the one for the original tab, but they do have the vent and center console mount, the mount is $29.99 a bit much and i wonder how much will be for the tab holder.

It's not available in the US on the ProclipUSA website. Didn't know brodit and Proclip were somehow associated. Always bought Proclip, thinking it was designed and made in the USA? Maybe it is.
Whatever the case, I just called Proclip, it will be available in the USA next week, they'll send me an email about it. Can't order it right now.

I agree that Brodit mounts are superb - I got mine - Brodit Passive Car Cradle Holder Tilt Swivel for Samsung Nexus S (#511227) from Amazon UK. It is rock solid.
My Brodit from Proclip arrived Thursday. Its really nice. I originally had a ram mount in my truck for the Motorola xoom. The Proclip is nice but I ordered the console mount instead of the vent mount for Toyota 2005 Tacoma. I'm using the console mount piece as a cable organizer and just bolted the pro clip backing to the Ram mount fitting since the holes matched. I am hoping to post pictures and review soon.
I had contacted ProClip about the Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE mount and they contacted me back today to tell me it was available now. Awesome I love ProClip I already ordered it.

Danggit. I have a thin jelly case on my EVO 4G LTE, but I really want to get the integrated power supply and still keep the case on. Oh, boy, I think I'm gong to have to ditch it and get a clear skin in order to use the ProClip doc. I have the car attachment, since I used it for the original EVO 4G. I just need to get the phone mount and not the car mount.

If the new one are anything like the ones i've used for my touch pro, tp2 and evo (which they look like), then you're going to have the clear skin peeling off it in no time as the mount itself has very tight tolerances.
These things are monsters at stability, only downside being they're designed only for naked devices.

Do you all usually get the vehicle mount with these as well? Looks like that may be the only way for them to be mounted.
This is the case I have a mount already myself
