Found this on Facebook and then Youtube. Looks pretty interesting, hopefully Kellen will tell us more about it soon. [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JbNrkftYPnk]YouTube - Scissor Module Prototype.wmv[/ame]
That's cool! My only concern would be that it might be a bit more cumbersome to insert and remove the device with one hand while driving... I think I'd be likely to drop my slippery phone while trying to one-hand it in and out of that type of mount.... but maybe not.
Only thing I can see missing is a ball + socket type attachment so the phone can be articulated around to be in correct eye sight or move the phones glare out of your eye if the sun is hitting it.
Good point...it can be inserted with one hand with practice though. But you shouldn't really need to take it in and out while driving, right? I know Oregon isn't the only hands free state and from it's location you should be bale to use the speakerphone even if you don't have a bluetooth headset.
You can angle the device to a reasonable degree within the mount. I guess that will have to be demonstrated in the next video. Along with the one hand trick.
Oooh - I like that. Maybe enough that I would also be prompted to buy a new bracket since my current bracket can only handle the one arm for my GPS. Would love to mount my iPhone as needed.
