Just thought I would let everyone know that this:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=140216977701
(same device appears to be at
http://www.wirelessground.com/touchcarmount.html )
Is a great hands free kit/car mount for the Vogue. I spent a lot of time researching car mounts, and decided to take the plunge on this one. Shipping was quite reasonable and only took 2 days from New York.
The suction cup works GREAT, adhered instantly and very securely to my windshield. Figuring out exactly how to adjust the neck of the mount can take a few minutes, but I had mine up and positioned perfectly in about 2 minutes.
Very little vibration is transferred to the device. The external speaker works great, and has plenty of power. You can the charger off with a easy to use switch on the base, which also has a 2.5mm headphone jack, and a volume dial. My wife said I sounded a little distant when using the hands free, but less distant than I sounded when I just used the speaker phone on the vogue.
Also on the base of the unit is a "Hands Free" button, with which you can answer a call just by pressing it once, and hang up a call by pressing it for a moment. You can also initiate voice dialing on the vogue by pressing it for a moment when not in a call.
My vogue fits very securely in the socket, it actually takes a bit of force (but not too much) to get it out.
The only downside that I see to it is that you have to turn a knob to rotate the device 90 degrees (for any applications that use landscape), but I think this is an acceptable trade off to how solid the entire mount/phone is when everything is locked down.
