Anyone found a good car holder for the TyTN? I've looked through ebay and found a few and all of them have no charging/power connector. I don't know which one fits well. I'm looking for a good cheap holder with ot without a power connector. Any recommendations?

There's also a thread over at Modaco.com about their stuff:

That looks really good! But I can't afford to spend £40 on a holder. I went for a simple one from ebay for a fiver. I only use it when I go on long trips and use my tytn for satnav which is very seldom.

Things to consider though is if on long journey the phone might need charging so make sure the mini usb has enough room for a car charger to be plugged in. I use the charger for Holux GPSlim 236 satnav receiver to charge both devices when in the car. The only other problem I had with my M2000 was when accelerating hard or going fast round corners the phone would be pulled out of the cradle in fact I tried loads of cradles so I'm hoping this smaller phone doesnt suffer the same problem otherwise it could be elastic band time again.
Looking at that cradle in the top link it looks like one of the bottom lugs will block access to the mini usb which is no good really. Oh well only one way to find out and thats go and buy it. :-)

I bought one from a Vodafone shop. It's just known as a universal car holder. Cost a fiver and works great.
I can still access the mini usb and all buttons while it's fitted in there.
Hope this helps
