After I received my N900, I purchased an iGo car charger with an appropriate tip. Subsequent to that, I added charging tips for all my other in-car devices.

the igo looks pretty good, if your on a budget I would ponder you can get away with a $5 car/usb charger and $2.00 for a usb --> micro usb cable

You may have to do the 'dumb charger' mod for it though.

I have a extra wall charger, my old motorola works with the N900 so I can use it with my inverter in my car. A inverter for me was a better investment than any kind of car charger since i can use it for any/all devices like my laptop and it was only like $25.00 for a 2x AC plug & 1x USB plug inverter that is rated for like 350w or so.

If your ok using a wall charger and want to keep it simple, something like this would do fine: http://www.eforcity.com/dothdcacad01...5=dothdcacad01

Mine is something more like this: http://www.newegg.com/Product/ImageG...wer%20Inverter

What would be a problem if someone use DC-9? It's amongst the list of official n900 accessories?

Just got to a pc :) - the one i use is the
DC-10 retractable car charger
http://i.ebayimg.com/08/!BdfYGGg!2k~...p2Kog~~_35.JPG

It works really well! - is a bit bulky, but love the retractable part.
