Its actually quite deep...
my prototype is finished!!!!!
I just don't like reaching up to rich my phone on the window mount. So I made one that sticks out the center of my dash
Its a mount attached to a cassette adapter. And it works great. I will be building better ones but I wanted to go to sleep so I just rushed it a bit... but you get the idea.
I can't wait to see what it will look like when I take my time!!!

I like that. I have one of those adapters around here somewhere, but my players to low to use like that. I built a mount that sits on top of my dash. But the adapter would be great for audio.

and if you move and try to disasm it to brind it
and reasm it you'd end up wishing you had never been born
no office to swedish people

I like the pillows...pretty neat setup otherwise....

Look for a sturdy windshield mount for GPS usage.

I've found a couple online but was wondering if anyone can recommend a good set up. I'm looking for a windshield mount that will hold the Athena for GPS usage and does not bounce or shake when the vehicle is in motion.

There are a few on Ebay but the Athena is that heavy they do bounce, I have seen RAM MOUNTS in USA advertised but they look expensive! but very good

I'll give this a try and let you know

hi
dont worry, it will hold it. i use it now for a few month, as a portable soulution for different cars and trucks. its stable and holds the unit well, even when the road get worse. the only thing you have to care about is that you can only adjust it vertical not horizontal. so you have to place the unit well, because there ist no tilt to left or right.

Lego Dock for Defy

I saw a similar dock on youtube (thanks for the author), it was plain and functional.
Made mine with a little more fun.
There is a lego guy "in control" when docked.
He is really enjoying the big screen!
Have to find a magnet to try the docking feature of defy. There is room for the magnet...
If you like it, build your own and hit thanks.

I tried that too but it don´works verry good becaus the usb cable pushed the phone out of the Dock
To do this you'd have to have some curved cable I think... or the dock could be a bit higher so the cable would fit under it, but then it wouldn't be small good looking dock, but a big block dock
how to make to show only picture on dock??
Thanks a lot
I did load that wallpaper as image with the gallery to make the photos.
So I did not make any automtism there.
I try to find the wallpper and post it here as I saw there was a request for it...
The wallpaper
And here it is...

Does anyone uses a docking stand for your phone?

Just received this as a gift:

Its a retro looking stand that you can lay your phone on top. It also doubles as an USB hub, but I haven't tried it out yet.
Any one using a similar docking stand/retro stand? Post some pictures.
My grandma has one of those.. But it doesn't have that big screen on the right side. :silly: haha
For reference it looks like this one: http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00BF8NM6A/ref=redir_mdp_mobile
4 USB ports!
I don't have it, but I used a friends cheaper ebay one last summer with his iPhone and it felt like talking on a normal landline. If it had wireless connectivity, I'd get one.. Especially because talking with the Note II for over an hour can be taxing. (or I'm just weak)
It's an interesting idea but looks like a cheap implementation.

I agree, if this is wireless it would be a good accessoy to have. The wired handset feels a bit strange.
LOL, the 2nd reviewer says : funny item to try out

Articulated arm for watching movies and playing games

I was in Honduras, on a small island, in a crappy apartment with no TV, money or girlfriend. This was the product of my boredom.

It's made of wood and cost less than $5.
It's got 5 joints that allow for nearly any positioning and the actual device can be rotated to landscape or portrait. The only thing missing was a vertical rotation axis right by the nexus so it can can turn left and right. The string is a backup to stop everything collapsing on my face in the night.
Boredom is responsible for many great achievements :smile:

We really do not need that type of comment here......
OP instead of using the string on the wall.. Get two Star type locking washes on each side of the first upright angle bar.. they will dig into the wood and hold it tight without the string.... You could also file some groves into flat washers to achieve this and cut a few groves into the wood for them to seat into...
I Have a commercial made arm similar that i got for my Work van Years ago... Its in basement somewhere now
sorry to offend...
by the way, what does the term "knob" mean in your sig?
OK the idea was creative. The hands free comment was cute, give the guy a break! ?
