These are good. I have one and love it - very handy for GPS usage, but the speaker doesn't have enough "oomf" for music, in my opinion.

Nope. Too bad, too. I'm getting a GPS and need a mount. Any other suggestions?

The review on the ProClip (http://www.pocketpcthoughts.com/articles.php?action=expand,10840) looked pretty good, I thought. And I believe they "support" the Jornadas (it's not powered though, but there's also the Moonlight Technologies (http://www.pocketpcthoughts.com/articles.php?action=expand,11591) car adapter)

For all you Jornada owners.....check out item PX005 at the bottom of http://www.pharosgps.com/products/accessories/ACCESSORIES.htm I can confirm that if you get an item that has a Dell power plug this adapter will let you power a Jornada with it. The Seidio mount, which looks a whole lot like the Arkon one, certainly fits my Jornada well.

When I bought the Arkon powered mount... they told me the windshield suction pedestal would not come off the windshield... They were right! It is super strong. They have a ton of different pedestals to choose from. http://www.arkon.com/pedestals.html

Including the obligatory Mounting Pedestal for Bicycles (http://www.arkon.com/images/Bicycle%20Mount%202.jpg). Remember, safety first! :wink:
