the TEKK cradle solution

Now boys!

The price needs to a third of what it is to be realistic . . if you
have energy to vent go beat up the manufacturer!!

Considering that all we need is a us$20 HP sleeve fitted to a RAM
mount, add a plug with wires for us$13 (from he
http://www.gomadic.com/ip4leadprewc.html#) to do just as good a job
bar one thing: the TEKK mount turns the wire backwards and protects
the delicate connector in the iPaq, I think a little job in the
workshop could protect the standard fitting.

One big advantage of the setup described is that by using Velcro to
fix the sleeve to the mount, anyone else with a different type of
gadget just has to add Velcro to it's back, slap it on and fly (no
iPaq mount to unscrew).

Cheers,

Jim Kelly.

For an additional investment of $29.95, you can have automatic wire
connections, and rear-projecting (or side projecting) wires. See this

I fabricated a mount for my iPAQ 3835 using an HP sleeve, the sleeve
lock described in the link, a piece of 1/4" plastic and some RAM mount
hardware. it worked so well I made a couple of them (one for my car
too). If you're good with a soldering iron, you can save the cost of
an expensive cable.
