Having written a piece that mentioned getting car mounts fitted today (here), I thought I’d just reflect back to the time when we had one fitted to our other car, and the kerfuffle we had in getting the right bits.
Specifically, I wanted an active mount for the iPhone that would allow it to be charged when the car was running – simple you might think, but the reality was that the iPhone has specific connector nuances compared to it’s iPod family. Add that to the fact that most mounts aren’t a good fit, or aren’t designed specifically for any device, and you gotta problem!
In the end my issue was solved by DSL Developments, a UK company specialising in Brodit car kits – they feature a universal mount, and then you get the right adaptor for your device – very logical and great quality!
Anyway, if you want to read my piece from not so long ago click here, and and if you want go straight to DSL Developments site, go here:

Ben is a 10+ year veteran of the Mobile industry – starting his career when SMS was a still a relatively new concept for most people (!), he has now consulted on everything from bleeding-edge Mobile content, to the next-gen accessories you might view it on. As a result he has a broad and deep knowledge in numerous areas of Mobile – from network operators to device vendors, to infrastructure and middleware vendors (not to mention content delivery) – and has worked for companies in all of these areas! He is based in the UK, a hotbed of activity for mobile, and recently became a father for the second time – as oppose to in his younger years when he was happy spend time tweaking all manner of mobile devices to 'nth' degree, he now looks for services and hardware that provide the most efficient, compact, and reliable improvements to his already manic life! It’s his opinion that Mobile solutions should be there to help to make your life better – if a particular solution (be it service or device) isn’t doing this, he believes you need to ask the very important question of why you continue to use it... His focus at IntoMobile is mainly on Mobile content, services, and infrastructure, particularly as regards the UK market – and with the occasional look at devices. Additionally, using his extensive experience in the industry, he will provide commentary on the industry at large, with regular (and hopefully thought-provoking) articles.
