I am just wondering how you guys have your BB held up in the car. I want to use the GPS on it, but I don't know where to put it where it wont fall over or a spot where I can see it really good.

I have a window mount to hold my Pearl, and my GPS receiver is on my keychain. Works just fine.

I have 2 hands for my BB and 1 knee for my steering wheel

Yea, but if you want to use the GPS you cant have your hand up near the windshield and drive at the same time, your arm will get tired.

I went to Target and bought a generic cell phone holder than attaches to the slats on a vent. Works just fine although it works it way out of the vent over time.

There are other mounts out there that are cheaper but I have been very happy with Proclip.

Forget the steering wheel, heck you can't send/receive messages or access the Internet with the steering wheel, something you can easily do with the BB. You know, come to think about it I don't even have a steering wheel, i take the metro to work hahahahah

I have an Arkon Vent Mount which came free with my BT GPS puck purchase from buygpsnow.com. You can buy one of these mounts for about $10 and it'll snap right into the heater vent on your car. I would never have purchased it on my own, so I'm glad it came free because I have come to love it! I also recommend the vendor (buygpsnow.com)

I don't hold it up by the windshield, you don't need to.

Mine either sits in a cup holder, or rests on the dashboard on one of those small non-slip mats. I like the vent holders, I need to get me one of those.

Wish I had three hands; I just use a generic mobile phone cup

edit: please don't let that wish come true!

walmart windshield mount works great.

One of those rubber mats that dont slip, works great

I bought a sticky car holder (I guess windshield) off ebay and the curve is a tight fit and works its way out so I usually hold it in one hand and drive with the other.

I purchased a generic holster from The Source and modified the "arms" to a snug fit; they were way to tight out of the box and pressed on the side buttons. I also glued a magnet on the inside so it will act like a BB holster. When I need to navigate with GPS, I just stick something under it to hold it up away from the magnet. I since had to modify the vent clip too; the original was quite cheap and broke. Works like a charm and never moves.

Do you keep the vent open or closed when using this type of vent holster?

I keep mine closed for fear of moisture and/or excessive heat causing damage.

Mine lives in the cup holder when not in my hand.

[Tangocore]

cup holder, perfect fit!

steering wheel w/ velcro. velcro is attached to the rubber skin, which i only use my truck. ha. for GPS purposes.

I also recommend ProClip. Their mounts are a bit more expensive than others, but their mounts are custom made for the vehicle and device. Well worth the extra cost!
