Excellent writeup Andy.
Did you consider fitting the PDA to the RHS A-Pillar ? This is something that I am considering at the moment, although I haven't found a suitable mount as yet.

Bigfecker,
I like the look of your b2 mount..
Im looking for a similar kind of mount suitable for my Navman ICN510
(similar size to your b2), as I find the suction cup mount on the window slightly annoying in terms of obstruction of vision.
What kind of mount are you using for your b2 ?
Is it a generic mount ?

My problem is I really need both vents to function - to keep my hands warm in winter, and the cold air to keep me alert when the roof is up.
Can you get sticky stuff that leaves no mark on the vinyl dash, yet is secure enough to hold a PDA (while I attempt Ari Vatenen impressions on bumpy B-roads ) ?

I also think that it would block your line of sight a little, so I opted for the centre position but as low down as possible so as not to get in the way, but still be easy to read without diverting your eyes too much.
