5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect Phone Holder, February 9, 2007

By	J. TAYLOR (Los Angeles, CA USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

UPDATE: 6/12/09- OMG, this badboy is still going strong! 6 phones, 3 cars later and I still am yet to replace anything on it. The suction cup has only slipped a few times (due to major temperature changes) and the grips are still in-tact enough to hold my iPhone 3G with or without a case (I was using a CaseMate clear shield). I still love my iGRIP and it's been 2 years!

I had just purchased the T-MOBILE MDA and couldn't find a spot for it in my Scion xB. So I started looking on eBay and Amazon.com for the perfect holder. After reading the description of this one I had to buy it.

PROS: +It really can adjust to about any position needed for any windshield. +It's not large to cause distractions. +Keeps phone sturdy even on bumpy roads. +Looks hi-tech while keeping it clean. +Holder doesn't have gooseneck, has less room for vibrations (heavy soundsystems, bumpy roads, etc.)

CONS: -If you don't remember to make sure your smartphone/pda/iPod/etc. is securely in the holder, then it will just fall off (pretty far drop). -The configurations of the iGRIP as far as adjusting it to fit your needs is a little difficult (A lot of twisting of knobs, nothing a 6 year old couldn't do). -The suction cup isn't very self-explanatory, took me awhile to figure it out.

Overall, I was extremely pleased with this product, and would recommend it to anybody looking to get this type of a holder. STAY AWAY FROM GOOSENECK HOLDERS!!! Hope this helped somebody...

5.0 out of 5 stars Robust, stylish and funtioning greatly., February 11, 2007

By	Jin-han Hong "JH" (Clarksburg, MD USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I have used two related products from other manufacturers. Sucion cups from others lost their supportin power as time goes by. This iGRIP neve loose shape and function in its suction cup. It also provides various angled configuration. I love the good material quality with lower price.

1.0 out of 5 stars All Treo owners----BEWARE, July 27, 2007

By	Antonio Fernandez (Westfield, NJ) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Sorry for the ominous title, but it's true. This was suppose to fit Treo's, it simply does not. I ended up returning the iGrip for the "Akron". Read on...

PROS:
-good suction power on the glass

CONS
-since my Treo has buttons along the left side of the phone (Treo 755p), the foam on the mount would press on them causing it continually open an unwanted application.
-the 'gripping' power of the mount on the phone is lacking.
-since there's nothing on the front of the phone to prevent it from falling out, it always did.

Conclusion:
Look, if you bought a smartphone, you don't want to leave anything to chance on ruining it. Don't mess around with the iGrip mount.

I ended up buying and keeping this mount instead:
Arkon PTM115-B Windshield And Dash Mount For Treo/HTC (Amazon). The Arkon had no CONS, just PROS...
1. It held my phone so securely I never worried about it. If you look closely at the design of the Arkon and compare it against the iGrip you'll see the plastic curves to the front of the phone cradling it.
2. The Arkon mount had more articulation to allow eaiser positioning.
3. ....and finally......It's HALF THE PRICE OF THE iGRIP!!!!
