Hey Rick,
I love your design - very ingenious and relatively cheap way of integrating aftermarket nav! However, it seems that many of the larger nav manufacturers have begun to favor a no button/squarish design (ie. Garmin C330 and TomTom Go 700). With this in mind, I think you should consider designing a similar setup for owners of the aforementioned nav units. Many people are beginning to purchase this style of nav and I think they would be interested in this type of solution. I for one own a TomTom Go 700 and would definitely purchase this type of mounting system if it fit my nav. If any of you fellow Garmin C330 and TomTom Go owners feel the same way, speak up - I think this would be the PERFECT solution for mounting our navigation!

Right now, this project is stalled. The faculty director of the Manufacturing Engineering program at OSU-Okmulgee left for another job, and we're now back to ground zero, since he had accomplished very little with the students.
I'll be trying to get this going again with the new program head, but for now it's going nowhere.
