Whilst the Bluetooth apparently works with most Bluetooth car kits, do we have physical mounts available and does the automatic pickup of calls function?
Apologies if this is somewhere else but I can't see it after looking.

Hi purpleonyx,
I ordered the same holder and received it today (less then 2 weeks, too). There's indeed no hole for the camera. But my problem is, that the mount is not symetric and so the N900 does not really fit into it:

Does your mount look the same on the right side? The left side would fit for the "lower" part of the N900 so that I could even open the keyboard while in there, but the right side ... OK, another picture with the N900

Only thing I had to do is create a small hole on the right to let a 3.5mm plug in the audio out jack.
PS: I didn't get the one with the camera cut out... :/

So in your case the N900 goes all the way into the mount and is fully enclosed so that you can't open the keyboard?

I just got mine today. Unfortunately I don't have the camera cutout...
Ask the seller to send u a new one. This one is obviously damaged and does not fit properly. In my case, the N900 is fully enclosed and you cannot open the keyboard once it is in the holder.
PS. I just contacted the ebay seller regarding the missing camera cutout.

has anyone come across a suitable solution for mounting an N900 on the handle bars of a bicycle?

Anyone has the holder above (from ebay, WITHOUT the camera cutout) and is able to cut a hole for the camera (using a dremel or something)? Some pics would be appreciated. Because I'm afraid the notches on the back of the cradle will interfere with the camera position, and thus we won't be able to make a hole there.
TIA
