I've tried most of the others and this is the one to buy (UPDATED 3/13/11)
[Updated information follows]Now that I have owned this for 2 months and used it a lot, I would like to update my review. They say that if you invent a better mouse trap, the world will beat a path to your door. I hope that Mountek has as good a door as they have a mount! Even with a couple of small quibbles, this is still the best engineered solution I have come across. I use the word "engineered" instead of "designed" or something else, because it is apparent that this is the work of a talented engineering-type who has a good grasp of how items are used in the real world and the importance of build quality as well as fit and finish.What are the quibbles? Well, as someone else mentioned, the screw which tightens the mount in the slot is a little noticeable. It is also the only piece of this device which was not perfect in fit and finish. Mine has a tiny little burr sticking out that digs into my finger when I tighten it. Not a big deal, but this device...

This is what I have been looking for!
So far I couldn't be happier. This was exactly what I was looking for in a car mount. The construction is pretty solid and doesn't budge at all. The mount slips into your car CD player and tightens with a screw on the bottom of the mount (see pictures). Installation took 5 seconds! Like I said it does not budge or move at all. The back of the mount has a ball socket so it is adjustable to your viewing angle. The mount also uninstalls in another 5 seconds and can be transferred to another car. A simple and genius invention!Some of the concerns I had going into the purchase...- I was worried that the CD Holder would activate the CD Tray. At least on my application it did not (2011 Hyundai Sonata). Obviously I can't speak for every car but so far so good.- The mount did not obstruct the power button, volume or usb power socket (of the phone/gps/mp3 etc).- Can position in landscape or portrait due to the versatility of the ball socket mount.-...

Even better than I expected.
I just got this yesterday and tried it out in my 2009 Jetta Sportwagen with the premium 7 stereo in it. It works flawlessly. I tighten it just enough to get it in there solidly. Same with the clamps on my iphone 4s. It's in there snug enough so that I can slide it in and out easily.I have no case on the phone, but I'm sure it would work with any slim case.There is a good slot for the charger, which works great. It will rotate into landscape easily as well. The plastic is the right kind of plastic for the job. Not flimsy, it's more like what dunlop tortex guitar picks are made out of. It fits really well.Supercool and fun to use with the Waze app for free gps.

Product Description
Shopping for a reliable, high-quality mount for your mobile device? This one installs directly into your CD player slot or in between the grooves of your dash. PATENT PENDING DESIGN. It uses NO SUCTION CUPS, NO CLIPS, NO SCREWS, and it requires NO TOOLS. Best part, it won't obstruct your view of the road.
FAQs: My charge port is located on the side of my phone. Will this allow for me to charge it at the same time? Absolutely. Simply detach the support bar located at the bottom of the cradle, and you can easily mount your phone with the charge port exposed. Will the blade activate the CD's auto loader? Although all CD players are made differently, the plastic blade does not reach far enough to activate a CD player's auto loading function. If my CD player has a rubber/cloth dust guard, will the mount damage it? The max depth the nGroove blade can reach is 16mm or .63". If the depth of your dust guard is shorter than this, then the plastic blade might cause it to appear warped or wrinkled. I have an extended battery which requires a larger case. Will it fit? The MT5000 was not designed for devices thicker than .70", but you still might be able to mount your phone without its case. NOTE: You must completely loosen the blade's tightening wheel BEFORE uninstalling the mount. Compatible with the new iPhone 4/4S, HTC Thunderbolt, HTC Evo 3D, HTC Inspire, HTC myTouch, Nexus One, Galaxy S Series, LG Revolution, Motorola Droid Bionic, Atrix, & More! *Will not fit TomTom GPS units with a protruding rear speaker.
