Great for my needs

User: D Z, Oct 1, 2009

Pros:	Small footprint, holds Palm Pre securely
Cons:	-

Fits the phone very well and puts it in a perfect place for using the GPS. It is a perfect fit for my use.

Solid, well designed mount for the Pre

User: Tom C, Feb 21, 2010

Pros:	Slider works well, usb accessible, good position on vent
Cons:	Will it work with your vent? Vertical vents could be an issue.

Reviewed after using for most of the winter...written on the Pre.
The iGrip vent mount is a nice addition for using with the Pres gps navigation offerings, bluetooth stereo and handsfree kit. The positioning makes it safer/easier to see maps, music menus and the phone screen.

I replaced an older universal mount and this is a much more compact, yet sturdy solution. I was concerned about the lower lower clips based on some of the earlier reviews here but am happy to report no issue with the version I received. There is a tab on the upper left corner that releases the Pre. It is possible that you could have a problem if you pull on the Pre without releasing it first.

The other possible sticking point (also mentioned in prior reviews) is it connects into horizontal venting. There was no way to change this and it was thankfully not a problem in my vehicle. The mount does not articulate, but I found this made for a cleaner and less bulky design than previous mounts Ive had. You can actually get air from the vent when the Pre is not on it. This is a nice change from the universal mount I had which rendered the vent essentually unusable.

Ive been really impressed with the ease of mounting and dis-mounting the Pre. It is easier to store and access than any other device pair Ive used in my vehicle. Equally impressive is how it was made to allow the slider to work with no impediments. And charging with the usb is not an issue. All in all a well designed mount that could make for a good template should Palm decide to release and inductive charging car mount.
This mount has proven itself to be a sturdy base for the mobile options of the Pre during the month or so (and many a road trip) that Ive had it. Recommended, mobile accomplishers!

	Not for ALL cars
User: Mike Davis, Dec 22, 2009

The holder for the phone fits great and allows access to volume control and charging port. Also allows the face of the phone to slide up with no problem. However the air duct mount will not fit into the small openings in a Saab 95. Guess ill have to buy another car!!!

Needs to swivel

User: Chris Vuocolo, Sep 16, 2009

Pros:	Custom fit bracket
Cons:	No pivot / swivel

I do not own this product, but I have spent a lot of time shopping different mounting options. I like that this is a custom fit for the Pre, but from looking at the pics, it is apparent that it does not swivel. For me, thats a deal breaker as far as vent mounts go. A mount that does not allow me to pivot my Pre to a confortable viewing angle is of very limited value.

For comparison, take a look at how the Bracketron unversal vent mount is set up.

	Bottom holding tabs break easily
User: J Crocker, Dec 14, 2009

I was initially very excited about the product and at first, quite pleased with how it worked. However, the bottom holding tabs broke off after only a couple of months of very infrequent use (maybe 10 times total). If you search Precentral forums, you will see others with similar experience. Manufacturers website is useless. Do Not Buy the Custom fit Pre component, if you must, opt for the Universal piece.
