Hi,
I have an universal 5$ car mount in my car, which it sticks to the windshield by Vacuum.
The vacuum suction is pretty good (comparing to my GPS other one which falls down after few minutes :\), it keeps stable for months.
But the spring arms which make pressure on both side of the mobile to hold it, are suckish.
The spring had broken 999 times and it gets really crappy (maybe a cause of the sun [its damn hot here])

So now I'm looking for a new one, I thought of universal or specificly for Desire HD,
I prefer universal so my mom and my brother will also be able to use it but if it downs the quality back to my old crap, it ain't worth it.

I'm open for any suggestion you got.

Thanks,
Yarden.

ah the sticky one?
I'm not sure about it, I've seen an explanation video about it and the describer lady when she plugged the phone to it, she pressed so hard to make it sticks,
I don't think that's a pleasure daily mission for me.. :\

I use a Brodit and have done for about the last 5 phones i've had! they are specific to your phone & car though so not much use to your other family members. You buy it in 2 parts, a mount specifically for you car, and a holder specific to the model of your phone. If you upgrade phone, you just buy a new holder for the phone. They are superb quality and hold your phone rock solid.

yes that is one of the options i also checked out. But in my car - it's either going to cover the vents or sit somewhere i don't like - so i opted for the universal one - which the gf also can use for her wildfire

you can use the brodit mount with a herbert richter goose mount. I've done this before with my PDA and it works a treat. Unfortunately I've already binned it as I thought I would not use it since I've sold my PDA. But now I'm looking to make another one.

well it seems very quality and solid.
Unfortunately after long time surfing and finding out that's a worth buying something, I realize this site doesn't sell it, and as I understand it doesn't sell it for my country (Israel) :(

Is there any other option to buy it from somewhere else? like ebay / amazon?
btw, I have mitsubishi lancer 05, and of course Desire HD

Have you asked DSL Developments, if they will export to your country? they also have these links:- Our Brodit Friends Page that might help you.

You could ask the same of this company, if they will export to your country:- MobileFun.co.uk:- Brodit Accessories

RAM Desire mount any use?

I have used the RAM arm for something else in the car but the mount is good.

You can get spares too for it from the dealer or direct and other ends fit too. Just said else where got a desire case from them and a discount when checking out dunno if it will work outside the UK but "TESCO 1" worked :):):) when I just shopped for a desire case and iphone charger.

btw Tesco is a big UK shop not a dj :)

But hey worth a go to save a few $$$ or £££

Yeah but 95% of these "castom" mounts for HTC doesn't fit if I use silicone case,
And I got pretty massive one from case mate (its double protection, silicone + plastic)
So it ain't useful for me.
Any way I bought that clips universal holder of exogear (for 33$ free shipping), when it arrive ill feedback here if it worths
