Sticking it to the Thieves - the Proporta Magnetic Dashboard Mount

Posted by Don Tolson in "HARDWARE" @ 08:00 AM



Product Category: Phone/PDA Car Mount
Manufacturer: Proporta
Where to Buy: Proporta
Price: $25.95 USD Includes self-adhesive mount, cleaning cloth, two 'sticky pads' for mounting two phones or PDAs.
Specifications: 80mm (3.1 in) x 30mm (1.2 in) x 5mm (0.2 in).

Pros:
  • Convenient, attractive mount;
  • Magnetic sticky pads for PDA/Phone are very thin and unobtrusive;
  • Strong magnetic clinch.

    Cons:
  • Requires a long flat surface which may be difficult to find in some vehicles;
  • Paper user manual provided is almost unreadable.

    Summary:
    Proporta has developed a magnetic dashboard mount for phones and PDAs which can provide an attractive alternative for those not wanting to stick a suction cup to their windshield. While a little pricey, the mount is small, attractively finished, and provides a good solid magnetic 'clinch' to hold the device in place. Plus, you get two thin magnetic sticky pads which don't add a lot of bulk to the phone or PDA.
