[Q] Anyone tried suction cup *on back of* Galaxy Tab?

Seeing how flat and glossy that back cover is, I'm wondering if an "industrial" suction cup mount (like RAM part#: RAP-B-224-2U) would hang on to the *back of* the Samsung Galaxy Tab?? (Search gpscity.com for an example image & video... i'm not allowed to embed links yet)

I know there's all kinds of side-grip & snap-in tray style mounts out there already that should obviously work but I can't help but be curious... that RAM suction cup is so friggin strong... it would provide an easy entry into all the mix and match RAM parts I've already collected for my Samsung Q1U tablet (bicycle handlebars mainly)... and it seems like it might even yield a cleaner look than the more traditional alternatives.

Anyone have the actual hardware on hand to try this and satisfy my curiosity? :)

I don't know what exact model you're talking about, but I LOVE the idea! And I am quite certain you could put a suction cup straight onto the back of the tab without any problems. A double sided suction cup would be a perfect solution for car mounting...

Used this one for my HTC HD2. The Tab needs two to be held strong, but you're right its back surface keeps good suction.

I am sure it would work. I bought this small mount with stickem on the back and it works like a champ. I would think that a suction cup would be even better.
