Nice
I'm going to need one of these when my Artemis arrives within a couple of days. Not sure but i think that it comes with a holder for the car in the box. Anyway just wanted to say that you should stay away from the holders that attach to the heating vents of the car. My unlce who works for Cisco Systems told me that they have been flagged by his company because it apparently is not good for the device.Not sure if this is true but just wanted to give this community a heads up on this one. I say you go for the suction holders.

The P3300 comes with a car holder, which looks very much like the brodit holders oddly enough...
Also comes with a windcreen suction mount and a natty HTC car charger (witch shiny chrome HTC embossed on it)
You only get the car charger, windscreen mount and 512MB Transflash card with the Premium version (this is the one with full TomTom mapping included) - well thats what the manual states, I got all three "extras" with mine - Mike
I didn't get any accessories with my device. I just got the base unit with the manuals, etc. I need a car mount.

Hey Neptune,
I see what you are saying, but thousands upon thousands of very satisfied customers and no damaged devices, along with rigourous controlled tests really do mean you are worrying about this without a valid cause!
Thanks
Bryson
anyone know of any other holder/charger units for the artemis? £40 quid is kinda expensive!
It Sucka

Perjan, thanks for the heads up. For £40 i would be expecting top build quality.
Brodit holder for UK O2 XDA Orbit
The Orbit is basically an Artemis with a redesigned shell....
Does anyone know if the Orbit will fit into an Artemis / Brodit holder?
Cheers
Chris
hi
the orbit usb port is located slightly differently to the P3300 i believe it is only millimeters out but could make a difernence. I heard Brodit were making a holder specific to the Orbit for that reason.
Re comments above about vent holders i used one for 2 years with a IPAQ 5550 and had no issues at all.(infact in the summer it was a bonus as the ai con helped keep the device cool)
I find they are not so suitable for the Orbit as the clip/holder that is stuck to the device is not Orbit friendly.and if i use the clip that came with the Pdair case it hangs forward.
i use a suction mount with the side grip bars and it works great with the PDair case.
Well I have the brodit mount for the Artemis and it works well with the Orbit. It arrived after I read this post and I was aware it might not fit exactly so I gently bent the connector on the mount and it now fits perfectly and I am more than happy with it.
I am now just awaiting the brodit pro clip to attach it to the dashboard over the air vent. As I do not want to leave the screen mounted holder in the car due to last attempted break in!
Just to confirm only gentle pressure is needed to align the connection to fit perfectly to the Orbit so well worth the money in my opinion.

Hello,
I wanted to get a car holder for my MDA Compact III,
do you guys recommend an air vent car holder or a windscreen mount phone holder?
Have a look at the Brodit range they do a nice holder active and passive and a number of options to hold the unit in your car. I use the Brodit and HR holders in my vehicle - have a read of http://www.pocketgpsworld.com/broditartemis.php for a few details - Mike
thanks for the reply,
is the HR one the windscreen mount phone holder?
The write up contained Brodit products, only one part was the HR holder coupled to the Brodit Pro-Clip, you can see the three pictures using the HR Holder around the text -
"The HR mount is supplied with a flexible arm and windscreen suction cup, I much prefer the Brodit Pro clip as it provides a more stable mounting solution that is vibration free."
or read my post at this link http://www.pocketgpsworld.com/modul...pic&t=48131&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=51
Both Brodit and the HR units can be used with a winscreen holder or Pro clips, an edless choice of options depending on the vehicle and phone - Mike
thanks for the reply,
i am a bit confused as to how to select the car holder. i am a bit concerned as to if the car holder would fit the MDA copact III.
i checked in the t-mobile store and they are doing something for 10 pounds. the upside is if it does not fit, i can return it.
but then i be limited to a certain choice.
not sure if i should be going for something that attaches to the vents or something that sticks to the windscreen.
i came across this one
http://www.lhdigital.co.uk//product_info.php?cPath=6_127&products_id=126
is there much between two holders?
Its quite a simple choice to be honest, are you happy to entrust a cheap £10 holder from the shop that can mount a mutitude of devices or get a specific holder that has a degree of quality about it?
I have a T-Mobile generic holder and its CR*P - I certainly wouldn't use it to hold a device worth around £400 - your choice - the position is down to what suits you and the style of mount/ Pro clip available for your car - or go with the cheap offerings and take a chance - Mike
thanks for the reply mike,
i think i will go with a nice decent holder.
i looked ath the herbert rickter mount in the post, and the verdict is that it vibrates.
would it be correct to say that all windscreen mounts vibrate?
i have been using the regular tomtom on the windscreen. so i am used to that.
does a pda on the air vent enable easy viewing for navigation purposes (i guess one gets used to it)
are all the herbert richter's the screen mounts.
what is pro clip?

Well I trust my device to a £3.50 flexible windscreen mount from ebay, and it works perfectly!
I've tried vent mounts, but they are generally rubbish - but it could be my vents! I've tried magnetic ones but they don't stick to my dash - it could be my dash! So far, the windscreen one has been perfect! Although it did wiggle about a bit until I 'adjusted' it by getting it to rest against the instrument console. Not a judder out of it now! and I highly recommend it and the £36.50 saving

what is the make of your windscreen mda holder?
It was this one
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=160072850929&ssPageName=ADME:B:EOIBSA:UK:11
but I was mistaken about the price, sorry. It was 99p +£2.99 postage
EDIT: they are being sold by someone else now
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Air-Vent-Moun...ryZ10364QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem
and the postage is only £1.99
thanks for the reply,
i went to the site and though it says that 5 are available i cant seem to be able to buy it.
i think they are all sold out. if you come across any other holders do let me know.
Search ebay for
"Air Vent Mount Suction Car Holder"
there are quite a few
I personally use a Brodit mount attached to a Dashmout bracket.
The wives Vario also uses a brodit mount but attched using a Brodit Proclip, nice and easy to install.
See attched for my car. Need a new pic with the phone attched.

Since i bought my Optimus One i have been looking for a good car holder. I really hate the suction mounts for the windscreen because they are pretty far away and can be destracting, so the LG SCS-320 accessory was useless to me. Plus i did not find it in stock in any shops in my country.
I searched for some universal mobile phone holders but all i could find were some bad made in china models.
A good friend of mine is the Brodit importer in my country. I had already got the dash mount for my 2008 Opel Astra H. Unfortunately, Brodit don't make a holder for this type of phone, probably because LG already has one, so, temporarily, i was using a Nokia ajustable holder, but that wasn't really what i wanted.
Today i went to his shop and he suggested i look through his stock in search of a mobile phone holder that fits. After 10 minutes i found it. It was a padded holder (very nice because the phone doesn't get scratched) for and old iPhone 2G. It fits perfectly. The product code is 875168 if anybody is intrested.
Pics below:
So, any iphone 2g holder is ok?
Well the Brodit one fits perfectly. Cant guarantee for the others. Its better if u can test it before you buy it.
Do you think a car holder like this would work for the P500? http://www.emag.ro/accesorii-telefo...o-universal-hama-pentru-telefon-mobil--p17658
Don't mind the language though
Of course it will work, it's universal. I wanted something with a bit more quality though.
Nici mie nu imi place limba aia
I got LG's car holder and car charger with my Optimus One when i bought it. It came in same retail package. I can give you exact model. Its SCS-320 theres pic too.
*edit sorry. Just wokeup so i haven't read your post good and missed part about what kinda car holder you are looking for.
Well i already have a car holder (the one in the pics above), just wanted to share it because i thought it may help some people
yeah I like your design better pejte opposed to the one that sticks into the window
It's not my design, they are made by Brodit. I have just tested out a few holders and found one that fit, because they dont make a dedicated holder for this phone.
Sorry for the offtopic: what's the name of that clock widget?
nice idea! only bad thing is you have to screw into the dash...
You don't have to screw anything into the dash. That's the thing with the Brodit products. Go to their website and see the short presentaton clip.
great idea
very nice maybe i will try it.
in what rom are you useing?
Soo Good i have one in my car.
I bought one from walmart I think, hooks up in the car vent, horizontal or vertical, I leave it in horizontal mode for navigation (widescreen). I hook up my phone with my car stereo, and when the call comes in they get routed through car speakers and the mic picks up my voice perfectly fine. Pretty awesome.

I've used a similar car mount, but replaced it now with an X-Grip from Type-S.
I'd post a link or picture but I can't yet, just google search for "x-grip type-s"
I't great because you can adjust the angle of your screen in any way, and it works with the phone in a vertical or horizontal position
Just saw some nice car holders for all the phones on lootspot.com... although it doesnot have international shipping
Wow, it seems very nice. Thanks for sharing.

Any news on Brodit holders for the Galaxy S2?
Can't seem to find anything on DSL Developments (who I normally use). Timescales? or are we still looking at weeks yet. Might have to find a temporary alternative in the short term.
Why not email [email protected]? They are usually very helpful.

I'm using the passive HTC HD2 cradle. It's fits perfect at the bottom but a little bit of movement at the top where the phone is thinner. It's not loose enough it rattles or moves when you touch the screen. Volume and power buttons aren't blocked.
Might be easier and cheaper to find a used or new HD2 holder.
There may even be enough space to add a very thin skin, which is what I'll add if I can find a nice one.
Thanks will look into it.

Great to know, I currently have a HD2 with Brodit passive holder, and will receive my Galaxy S II tomorrow
I'll see if it's the same for me too...
I have an adjustable iPhone 3GS passive Brodit mount (it expands to use with gel type cases). I have a cheapo gel case on my SGII and it works fine, solid as a rock.

Okay so here's what I've done: on each side of my passive holder, I've put a few centimeters of black adhesive tape. It's the kind of heavy one, which you can buy in a hardware store...
Now the Galaxy S 2 is completely stable in a HD2 Brodit passive holder!

I gave mine to a friend for free when I sold my first 3GS. Later when I bought another 3GS I tried to get it back. I think i'm going to have to ask again now

Nice tip there. However, I might pick up one the offical cases from P4U this week. It looks like there may be enough room for the phone to fit the holder with the case on.

I've pre-ordered from dsldevelopments as usual, claims to be in stock in 10 days or so...
Sorry, it was:

Okay thanks for the information. However it's not in stock, it says:
"Please note: This product is expected to be in stock in the UK week commencing 30th May and is available on Pre-order basis. Demand will be very high, order yours today to secure this item."
So it is in line with what dsldevelopments have told me
Looks like I didn't spot that. Oh well, I won't hold my breath then.

Just to let you know, on Friday dsldevelopments has shipped my brodit passive holder, I should get it this week
I installed my Brodit SII-holder last Saturday. Fits perfectly. I had it pre-ordered to be one of the first to have it
I have the passive one, I use separate wires for power-in and audio-out.
I have decided to use it with a Kuda console, because that looks better in my car.
Now all I need to do is fill my SD-card with audio and I can enjoy my car-rides even better
