I've used DSL in the past and have been very satisfied and they are still saying pre-order with no date that I can see. There are three N900 car holders listed there (and they get pretty pricey)

The suspense ....

I've bought the Brodit passiv holder. But I can't access the camera Button. :(

why would you need the camera button whilst driving?

Because of the possibility to access the phone application fast by using shortcutd or to switch fast the task without looking at the screen: switch between running applications

The shortcut to reach the phone application using the power button is also not working. It's also covered. :(

Another message from PDA Hut today: they are expecting the Brodit Active holders for N900 to be in stock on Thurs.

ProClip N900 vehicle mounts now out
 
I just got an email from ProClip USA that their Nokia N900 vehicle mounts are now out. You can choose from three different tilt swivel holders:
  • Plain Holder with Tilt Swivel - $34.99
  • Charging Holder with Tilt Swivel and Cigarette Lighter Adapter - $59.99
  • Charging Holder with Tilt Swivel and Straight Power Cord for Fixed Installation - $79.99

Note that along with the holder, you also need to purchase a vehicle mount specific to your vehicle.

Check them out: http://www.proclipusa.com/default.as...54&d_cat=18086

Wow, an extra $25 just for a power connector? That's pretty steep...

it doesnt look too safe to me .... it appears to be a plastic mould that the n900 will sit quite flushly in but i cant see any pressure areas that will hold the n900 into place when braking/accelerating/going round corners/over speed bumps etc etc ....
...... i have a universal adjustable holder which is perfect for my n900 .... holds it in place perfectly and securely ... i can type while its in the holder without it moving at all see this thread for my pics http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=41879&page=2

oh and it cost me £5 from a side street mobile phone shop!
