No, but I've emailed them. They said they are still waiting to receive their Nexus. Then they would probably have a 3-5 week period before they'd be available for order.

Here's a link to the one in question. I believe they also have one for the kindle fire. I'm sure one technically works based on size, but I'll wait for the actual Nexus one to be released.

Then you need the vehicle mount of your choice for your specific vehicle.

How do you mount it? Screw it on to the dash?

if you click the link above, you should see vehicle mounts.

They make different mounts for each car. Typically without the use of even double sided tape. Definitely no screwing to the dash.

The device mount, bolts to the vehicle mount. The vehicle mount is attached to your specific vehicle. Nothing permanent.

For my car for example, there are two mounts that use no tools at all, and one that uses double sided tape.

I bought a ProClip mount for my phone (Galaxy S II) and was unimpressed to find that it lightly clipped into the dash of my car, but was mostly held on with adhesive tape. On hot days, the tape basically melts and the mount stays lightly clipped in, but sags and moves around. Not the "perfect sturdy mounting solution" that was advertised.

I emailed support and their answer to me (paraphrased) was "well we've sold a hundred of these without issue, so we can't do anything for you".

Oh great, I feel like a moron for spending $85 on a phone mount. So, word of warning, depending on what car you drive and what type of mount you order, it might sag under the weight of the Nexus 7.

I love their holders (made by Brodit) but the dash adapters are weak.

I use a dash adapter from panavise. It is made of steel. The bolt patterns match those used by Proclip/Brodit. Works great.

I wish Brodit/Proclip would support the pogo pins and what-not.

I might try this out here soon, been wanting to do a full in dash install or radio replacement for the Nexus 7 but can't find anything for that.
