I need one too. I ordered a double round of chargers house and car) and usb cables last week and already got them.
Never thought about the car mount though.
I'd like a half decent one. I had one before and it was really a cheap pos.

I just ordered a super cheap one for 2.99 shipped from FleaBay. It'll probably be junk, but only $3 wasted.
I saw another that the phone actually clipped into, but I keep mine in an inCase hard case, so I doubt the clip version will work. and I don't want to have to take it out of the case to use the mount.
Saw one at WallyWorld today, but they wanted $25 for basically the same as the $3 one.
I'll let you know when I get it. It's supposed to be shipped from the US.

IMPORTANT FYI on the iPhone: Do not, I repeat: DO NOT submerge it underwater for a significant period of time. Apparently all the wires and gizmos inside the thing don't like it.

Also, if you're expecting remnants of a hurricane to pass through your area while you're at an outdoor concert, do not assume that placing your iPhone in a backpack with the backpack under a tarp is necessarily going to protect it from the elements. See FYI above for additional info.

Just trying to add my first hand knowledge and experience to the thread.

For the guys looking for a car mount, I'm using the griffin window seat and love it. Set you back 30 at the apple store or BB, but I found a bunch of them at my local tjMaxx for under 10 bucks and amazons has it for 12. Only thing it can't be in a case, it's specifc to the iphone and locks it in very securely with little wiggle room
