Recommended iPhone Car Holder

if anyone id after a top notch car cradle/mount for their iPhone i'd highly recommend these.

i purchased one just after xmas and recieved it within 2 weeks (international).
it's the best iPhone cradle i've seen/used.

i was looking around for ages and all the other ones ive seen have been junky pieces of sh*t, this one is a perfect fit and is very well made.

Probably because you're using either the default ringtones (which are really quiet as found by other users, strange for ringtones i know..) or a low-quality quiet song, try finding a louder song.

Your link says that the item is no longer for sale. Is this correct?

Anyone else got any other options that aren't windscreen stickable??

I'd prefer to have mine out of my field of view...

There was this ipod holder shaped to fit into a cup holder. If they would have that for the iPhone that would be handy.

I tend to leave it on the seat and then it would fly everywhere and end up underneath the passenger seat

I prefer the Kensington iPod Car Mount. It can rotate (for watching videos etc) very easily.

It's windscreen mountable, but it also comes with sticking tape to attach it to your dash if you prefer.

I'm anti suction caps on windows, scum (aka thieves) look for the trade mark circles to choose which car to break into and check for things like GPS units. I know, I know, you take your phone out, but it still leaves you with at least a broken window.
