Brodit said a similar thing to me in an email. A couple of weeks.

Of course they did -- Proclip is the US distributor for Brodit.

For what will probably be a less expensive solution check out http://www.4ustuff.com/product.php?m...ch=htc+tytn+ii -- they're a manufacturer & sell only in the wholesale market.

Since they sell only to wholesalers...how do you propose we buy from them?

This universal kit works well ... especially when you want the keyboard out

Something that I dont like this kind of universal holder that uses a "spring", where there is a button to release the grip ... the spring will not tight anymore after let say several months.

And I am really afraid if it is not tight, the car bumps into something on the road and then the beloved PDA jumps out of the holder ! It happened several times.

I am not sure with Brodit / Proclip brand, can you share your experience?

I use one from Arkon and the spring is loose now. So, I removed the spring and glued permanently, cut the grip to make it fit for the Kaiser. It is ugly (really) but it can now hold the Kaiser very tightly.

Never had a car kit before, always had a pocket in my car perfect for a phone. Changed car now though and need some sort of holder. Also want to do away with my Bluetooth headset.

Does a kit exist where you put the phone in the cradle, and it both charges and connects to a car head unit/microphone. Obviously not for the Kaiser yet, but if its available for other phones, it will for this in time.

Know some executive cars have this built in and some companies cater for the aftermarket, but they seem to want hundreds. Am capable of installing said kit, just need a place to buy!
