ZoothornRollo - Look at RAM mounts at http://www.ram-mount.com/Products/Mo...8/Default.aspx .
I use it on my motorcycle and I assume there is a way to make a 7/8" motorcycle handelbar moungt fit a bicycle handelbar (I don't know what size handlebar a bicycle uses).

Hope that helps,
David

I've done similar. I'll post pictures when I get time. Works a treat.

Got it from amazon and it is really good, the top bit that you can see in the picture is a springed hinge that pushes back to allow the n900 to be placed or removed from holder.

Is it possible to use the hardware keyboard with this mount? Also, any idea whether an otterbox which increases N900's thickness would fit?

So.. there's no car holder for N900 that allows keyboard slide so far?
I'm thinking of getting one but haven't seen a good one..

Yeah, saw this before, a little too expensive imo :(
with the proclip it's around 40 euro..

btw my N900 also has the otterbox hardcase, so would it fit in there?

The keyboard can`t be used whilst in the holder, also it is quite a snug fit, i've not seen an otterbox but i would guess it would make it too big to fit.

you have a 35 euro case and complain that a 40 euro car mount is expensive? :confused:;)

but no, it won't fit. The brodit - and i would think all device specific mounts - are designed for just the device. i have a Zagg invisible shield and doubt it would fit in the Brodit.
