Default Vent-mount Car Dock

So I've found some vent-mount car docks on eBay (mainly shipping from overseas and all for the International versions of the Note). Does anyone know of any vent-mount car docks being sold in the U.S. (I just want it to arrive fast) and for the AT&T version of the Note?

Main reason I want the vent-mount instead of the official windshield/dash mount is because I had the Atrix on a windshield mount and the Atrix screen got heat damaged. I want to avoid that problem with my Note.

Thanks in advance!

UPDATE:
I ended up getting all of the following:

Car Mount: http://www.proclipusa.com/brodit-dev...303-18842.aspx (with associated mount for my specific car)
Case: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00...00_i00_details
Screen Protector: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00...00_i00_details
USB Car Charger: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00...00_i00_details

I love this phone

In case anyone is also looking for this, I decided to take the advice from another post I saw in the other car dock thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...5#post22693025

I appreciate your link to them. I would never have found them without it (I've googled a LOT ).

I love the idea of that case, its like a wallet and phone case in one. However I can imagine that the credit cards pressing against the screen are going to leave visible marks on your screen. Maybe not scratches or damage, but lines where the plastic/dirt will be rubbing against the glass.

Its a similar problem that happens with some laptops where the keyboard leaves marks on then screen when closed and moved a lot.

It's something I'll definitely keep a watchful eye on, but thanks for pointing it out (I didn't really think about this). I'm not sure yet about using it as my wallet, but I'd like to eventually be able to. A lot of credit card companies are now doing flat cards (no raised bevel on the numbers, since they're really not useful like that anymore). Also I'll definitely have the screen protector on it and hopefully that'll save any wear/tear on the screen itself.
