Hi,
I use my Q1 as a PC car with:
- Meedio for the frontend
- A Scosche bluetooth A2DP receiver to broadcast the Q1 sound to my car Stereo
- An external Asus Wi-fi HD to store my music and movies database.

Here are some links to see the pictures :


The Bluetooth Schosche receiver used to brodcast the Stereo sound of the Q1 to the car stereo.



The Q1 : Craddle in place for the driver (pic 1)


And (pic 2)

I forgot to mention that i have a glass rooftop :)

and (pic 2)


Maybe the next step will be to add a bluetooth GPS receiver...I'll take some pictures for you ;)

I guess you feel comfortable enough to hang the Q1 from the suction mount of the cradle. Good to know it is that reliable.

Indeed, since i have a "sport" way of driving (excepted when i have the kids on the rear seats of course), i can tell you that the craddle holds very well ;)

I live in California and you're not suppose to stick anything on the windshield. So I've been searching around trying to find a good mount/cradle for the Q1.

You guys think the Q1 will fit in the RAM cradle for the Motion Computing LS800?

The dimensions are pretty similar..

Q1:
8.96" x 5.49" x 0.97"
LS800:
8.94” x 6.69” x 0.87”


So I was thinking of getting a Pro-clip mount for my specific car..

Attach that to a swivel mount..

and then finally attach the RAM cradle to the swivel.
