I've a client that wants a PDA with Tomtom 5 and a car kit.

I've looked around (especially on the tomtom website) but I've been unable to find a car kit that I can be sure will be compatible with the new HP PDAs.

Any ideas where I can get this information from?

Thanks

If it's just something to mount the PDA in the car then Brodit have an extensive range Smile

Thanks I'll take a look.

I put in a support query to Tomtom and their reply is:

TomTom universal holder is the only holder we can provide from TomTom.

So I guess they really want people to go and get a Tomtom Go.[/quote]

I recently got a mount from Handnav - which is excellent - fits my 4705 nicely and is very secure on the windscreen

Can only second Brodit. Thier Proclip mounts are good. The holders etc aren't cheapest kit on the block, but the mount can be changed if the car is, they are easy to install, they are rock solid, and they leave hardly a trace when removed.

There's usually a choice of positions for most vehicles- I've usually gone for the ones on the upper air vents, they're nicely positioned to see the PDA easily whilst driving without it obscuring the windscreen whatsoever.

Usual disclaimers about being related/shareholder/supplier/retailer etc etc

I tried the handnav one but found the goose neck arm just too bouncy

Have a TomTom universal and its great as its a solid mount like the Go, What I dont like tho is having to plug in the power cable each time and it doesn't really wanna do sideways for landscape mode.

Thinking about combining it with a brodit mount somehow
