I am not fond of the vent mounts.
1st: I don't want to put any adhesive products on my ipaq.
2nd: The manufacturer indicates that it is a "semi-permanent" mount. They recommend that you DO NOT remove it once you put it in your vent. Unless you are very careful, you will get cracked vent louvres.
3rd: For GPS use, I would prefer having my ipaq in line of sight of the road, so I do not have to look away in order to see when my next turn is (yes, I know about voice prompts). Changing MP3's and stuff is also nice on the window, as you don't have to take your eyes off the road.
4th: If you live in a cold area, you will be blowing hot air onto your ipaq. If you live in a hot area, you are blocking your AC. I live in a hot place, and like to feel the air on my face, not having it diverted by my ipaq.
In favor of the vent mount, you will save some money. But at what (non-monetary) cost?
BTW, be careful about the window mount you get as not all suction cups are as good as others. Also, keep your window clean.
