meritline.com winshield holder $6.99 shipped
 

Strongly recommeded. I had 3 of those, 2 use in car, one use on my desktop to hold the tablet. So, when I type on the tablet, it will not slide back. the tablet sliding back upon typing is very very annoying, dont you think so? I would like to hear what other people do to prevent tablet sliding, other than using your other hand to hold it.

Silicon skins are quite rubbery and help prevent the tablet from sliding, but not like that thing. I'm not much of a devotee of looking at my N800 as I drive, though.

Thanks to bun and rkopper I just ordered one.

Mine just backs up to my left-hand speaker when it's on my desk. There's a company that makes little rubber mousepad sized pads to put electronics on to keep them from sliding around, though.

Re: meritline.com winshield holder $6.99 shipped
 

Back up against a speak or anything does not work good enough. The backup sometime is NOT heavy enough to keep the tablet from moving. I thought about mousepad pads, but wonder would that be in the way of the stand when it is fold up. You have experience in which one works fine but is small enough for the kick stand to get back to neutral position?
Are you talking about small rubber footpad that attached to the kick stand or just regular mouse pad?
TIA,

Neither; a regular mousepad wants to grip on the bottom, but slide on the top; these are like mousepad inasmuch as you throw them on the desk, and sit things on them, but they're designed for high-friction on both sides.

When I actually use mine (N800) on the desk, BTW, I lay it flat with the kickstand closed; don't have any trouble with it wandering off. The kickstand is more for functioning as a stereo and what-not.

I prefer the tablet stands up most of the time, if possible. I like it stands up when I am watching TV/movie. I lay it flat only when I write on them, as they keep sliding away. It is personal preference, I really rarely sit them down, I always like them stand up about 50 some degree. yup, just like watching TV, am I weird?

I ordered one and like it!

Too bad Nokia sells N810 with the holder (CR-99) but w/o the windshield mount (HH-12)!

The silicon skins for tablets are quite rubbery and therefore slide-resistant.

Re: meritline.com winshield holder $6.99 shipped
 

After you put in the silicone skin thing, would the tablet become too bulky for a shirt pocket? I am thinking to get one, but I have to carry my tablet on my shirt pocket.

I don't think this works on the n800. just got it today and no matter how i expand thw claws and width it won't fit. *sigh

edit: got in it. but it's different then the instructions or pic lol.

Re: meritline.com winshield holder $6.99 shipped
 

You open the claws slightly bigger than the tablet, then squeeze it down to hold the tablet by compressing the soft plastic beddings. The claws then locks in position, as the squeesing goes only one way.

Ah, i did it by having the soft stuff sandwich the n800's top and bottom. can't get the claws to fit it. or have the soft stuff sandwich it from the sides of the n800

You paid TOO much attention to that girl in white wearing a super mini skirt............. :)

Re: meritline.com winshield holder $6.99 shipped
 

haha yeah.

Re: meritline.com winshield holder $6.99 shipped
 

Pics took with N800, just to see the quality of the tablet camera. And that is how I use the windshield holder.

Re: meritline.com winshield holder $6.99 shipped
 

Yeah that's how mine looks like. though we don't get the vent pothook right?

Re: meritline.com winshield holder $6.99 shipped
 

I think they stopped the pothook on this batch. I got those several month back. Another way of jacking up the $.
