Re: N900: Car Kit & Mounts
 

im waiting for the active version to be available for the u.s. but im curious how well will it work with a full body skin protecter or even a hard care or rubber case?

Re: N900: Car Kit & Mounts
 

from experience with previous devices, brodit mounts fit pretty snug. I would like to hear from someone who has one of the Brodit mounts for N900 and a zagg body shield fitted.

As far as any other type of case that is thicker than a body shield, i would expect them to be a complete no-no. Won't fit. Would need to be removed prior to inserting your N900 into the Brodit mount.

I can tell you in a few days.

Re: N900: Car Kit & Mounts
 

I have the brodit passive holder in my car and the zagg shield on the N900. The N900 will not fit into the holder with the full body cover. The side cover parts of the shield interferes with the "holding grip" of the holder, damaging the cover while sliding the N900 into the holder. Also the additional thickness added to the N900 by the zagg back cover will make fitting the N900 to the holder really really tight (too tight IMHO).

I removed all but the screen cover and now it fits really nicely in the holder. Win some, loose some... ;)

thanks for the feedback. i figured it might be that way.

have you used the fm transmitter whilst the N900 in being charged by the Brodit active mount? i have heard reports about other chargers that they create so much interferance its almost unusable.

edit : just re-read your post and noticed its a passive mount you have. same question to anyone else :)

Re: N900: Car Kit & Mounts
 

Man, that stinks. IMO, it shouldn't be THAT tight of a fit to where a layer of microns interferes with it.

Re: N900: Car Kit & Mounts
 

well im glad i didnt wait because the full body would of been great instead i ordered the PDAIR metal case and PDAIR CAR MOUNT just unsure if it can be positioned in landscape mode at the same time.

Get a Mkiv Golf, flip the stand out and slide in above the air vent. Holds nicely, just waiting to hit a pothole and the shock snap it off! :D

Re: N900: Car Kit & Mounts
 

Does anyone know of any online shops in the UK who have the Brodit Active holder for the N900 in stock?

I've had one on order from PDAhut http://www.pdahut.com/store/product....2&cat=0&page=1 for a couple of weeks, but they don't seem to have any stock.

MobileFun http://www.mobilefun.co.uk/brodit-ac...900-p23465.htm have been saying "in stock from tomorrow" for several days, at least.

Thanks in advance,
Simon
