Active mount with usb cable?

---

I'm looking for a mount for my car that has a built in mini-usb plug and a regular usb plug on the other end. Basically, I'm installing a carPC in my car and want a mount that I can quickly slide into a mount and sync with the computer.

I have seen that brodit makes one with a 3-in-1 adapter that I can plug a mini-usb cable into, but I don't want to spend $80+ on a mount. Does anyone else know of one?

I also saw one on ebay (can't find it again) that has a usb cable out that plugs into a cigarette lighter/usb adapter. Does anyone know if this cable will function as a regular usb cable?

Just a heads up, I also have a carpc and I'm currently integrating a program called MyMobiler (which allows you to display and control the Raphael) into my frontend software so I don't have to mount the Phone, I just store it out of the way and use the PC to control the phone.

The MyMobiler site has been down, but I have the cab file if you want to try it out. Best part is that this version is free. There's also http://www.mobiola.com/mobiola-remote-control/3 which isn't free but adds some features.

Hope this could be of some help for you.

Yeah, I use MyMobiler all the time. I suppose that's a good idea, just leave a cable in the glove box or something. A mount would still be nice though.

What frontend are you using? I think I'm going to use Centrafuse since I was having problems trying setup RoadRunner with some of my components.

Can you possibly post the cab as I cannot get to it at work!?!?!

I've been using FrodoPlayer for over two years now because I didn't like the frontends that use WinAmp.

Anyway, here's a link to the file:
