Best Car Dock For Galaxy Nexus + Pictures? - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

What's up guys?
Can anyone post their car dock / setup pictures for us to see along with a link they ordered it from?
I'm in the market for one and the one from Verizon themselves is quite cheap.

Please tell me this is an April Fool's Day joke. Please.

My car doesn't work well with most mounts so I made my own bracket that goes on the dash, I usually don't like universal mounts, but since I am running a case I have no choice. After a couple crappy ones I found one that works pretty well. It was at target for $13, haven't found it online. It holds the phone well and doesn't get in the way of buttons or the usb port.
It comes with a windshield and vent mount but I used a screw to attach it.

I just use the official Pogo Pin Dock from Samsung.

Here is the picture of the dock from target.

[Q] Tripod?

Does anyone have a tripod for this phone? I've looked around and many aren't big enough. I cannot seem to find anyone specifically mentioning this phone with it's extra largeness.
Thanks!
I would also like to know if anyone found one.
I looked a bit on ebay and amazon but didnt find any good quality ones for the right price.
Mobile Grip Mini Fold-Up Smartphone Tripod
Works with pretty much any phone up to 4.6" screen. Also, if you take off the holder and adapter, you can use it with any digital camera / camcorder with a 1/4"20 screw mounting hole.

I just REALLY hope it works with my Epic Touch INSIDE its tough case. I don't ever remove it from the case (and its a pain to remove it anyway)

Arkon has an armband for smartphones up to 4.6", meaning the GNex. Here's some pics I took.
The model number is XXL-ARMBAND:

Probably, if it's not super thick.
I'm curious if it will fit with otterbox case on.
Well, the neoprene is stretchy enough that it's possible, but I can't say for sure. It'll be a tight fit if it did.

[Qi Charger Mod] Wireless Qi bookstash charger

I was bored, so i 'modded' a Book stash into a Wireless Qi charger....
Just place the N5 on the cover and it starts charging, i keep it on my nightstand for now.
I plan on buying another stash, or making a stash myself using a cooler looking real book...
Charging seems to function normally through the 5mm thick wood cover
What do you guys think?

That's pretty cool. How much did it cost you in total?
That's pretty awesome. I'm going to attempt a similar project with my nightstand like this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xZo2pA0Qc9U&feature=youtube_gdata_player

I paid 30 EURO for the charger i got the parts from,but you can get the pcb and coil on alibaba for much less. The book i sourced in a local store for 5E, but you can make it yourself for even less...

I've got a similar setup now. Using an Anker 15000 battery with a OTG Y-Cable and ElementalX kernel to charge the device while powering mouse or thumbdrive over OTG. Love this Nexus!

The case is available as MiniSuit Bluetooth Keyboard Stand Case and was made for N7 2012 and 2013. It's on Amazon as well as the MiniSuit website. http://www.minisuit.com/p-2016-blue...exus-7-fhd-2013-rubberized-non-slip-grip.aspx
This keyboards keys looked more spaced out than the typical crammed keyboards made for 7 inch tablets

I went the expensive (but worth it!) route and went for this http://www.simplysports.co.uk/armpocket/armpocket_i-35.htm
It's pricey, but good quality, and I've run in the rain a few times and phone was fine
Good pockets for your key(s) etc also and headphone slot.
Don't know if anyone else had this problem, but I was using Nike+ app for running! put the phone in my arm band and the GPS went all crazy saying I ran a mile in 3 minutes, looked at the map and it was all zig zags. I'm curious if it was the arm band that caused the issue because it was a pretty tight fit.
