the kit IS designed for the XL version of the Tom Tom unit. Far more secure than the supplied mount. It must be that those other customers had a part missing.Very pleased with mount as allows far greater flexibility on where you can fit unit and still reach it!

Review for RAC 600 12v Automatic Digital Air Compressor:
Very convenient
This is a very easy to use product complete with a built in light. You simply set the required pressure and it whirrs away and cuts off automatically when the right pressure is reached. The only downside is all these types of products are quite noisy and aren't exactly pocket sized - but I think this is a best of breed.31

Nonetheless, it’s still a handy thing to have, and as you’d expect, it charges the iPod from the lighter socket in the car.

Does the job
I was mildly disappointed when I received the Logic 3 car charger because having read the other reviews, I expected it to come with the handy addition of a firewire cable - and it doesn’t (perhaps the design has changed, otherwise the other reviewer was reviewing a different item (PodGear Powertrip perhaps??).Nonetheless, it’s still a handy thing to have, and as you’d expect, it charges the iPod from the lighter socket in the car.

Review for BA118 LED 4 Sensor Car Reversing Parking Radar Detector:
It has functioned as per sellers description.
A word of advice, I fitted it into a Toyoyto 'Yaris' which has a rounded rear bumper. when the unit was turned on it immediately gave a reading of 0.6! The sensors were pointing down and giving a reading from the road! The advice! ensure the sensor faces are vertical to the road.
The dash panel, centre digital reading, is quite accurate, I measured it!
As an over 65, the instruction sheet images required a magnifying glass to read. I scanned it and produced it at A4.
It mentions using Motorola mobiles and has plugs for their use. Not having a Motorola hand set these plugs were ignored and has not affected the functions.
Attaching the voltage cable requires some imagination from the installer and does require some experience of car electrics!

Review for Mobile Phone PDA Holder - Suction Mount - Universal Gooseneck windscreen / dashboard suction mount:
Rubbish
The holder I received was nothing like the one advertised! It is clearly only for mobile phones. My iQue 3600 would not fit in it, there was no provision for a photo, the thing rattles & vibrates when fixed to the screen. It only costs 1p, but with the postage, makes it a very expensive unusable item! My Grandson now has it fixed to his desk (with 2 screws) for his mobile.37
Review for PC LINE PCL-FL1 Laser Mouse:
It fits the N95 Perfectly and allows the slide to go in either direction, if you want to use the phone car charger while in the cradle you have to rotate the suction cup so that the piece of the phone cradle mount that would normally be at the bottom of the phone fits to the top or the left if using it sideways in SAT NAV mode, as the mount is in the way of teh charging plug, in either rotation, the foam edges (clamp) holds the phone securely with no slipping. The screen suction cup has not budged, even with the kids pulling on it and the flexiable but strong arm allows you to bend it into position to site the phone where you need it.
Great gadget, at a fantastic price with a good quality charger (that seems equal or as good as the Nokia supplied one) to add to the bargin.
Well worth buying, if you are looking for this type of screen phone mount.

If looking for a car mount for your N95, you wont go far wrong with this
I got this about a week ago, ordered it at 8.30pm and it was delivered the next morning what absolute steal for the price. I have bought others for 3 and 4 times the price that have all broken and none have matched this for quality.It fits the N95 Perfectly and allows the slide to go in either direction, if you want to use the phone car charger while in the cradle you have to rotate the suction cup so that the piece of the phone cradle mount that would normally be at the bottom of the phone fits to the top or the left if using it sideways in SAT NAV mode, as the mount is in the way of teh charging plug, in either rotation, the foam edges (clamp) holds the phone securely with no slipping.

Review for Kensington Digital FM Transmitter:
Very Disappointing
I was gutted with this item. The transmitter obviously sat at the front of the vehicle, and my aerial is at the back on the roof (VW Bora) but the sound quality was terrible, and it often struggled to find a suitable FM Frequency. I have since bought an Alpine IDA-X001 head unit instead, plugs into my ipod through a USB cable and the ipod itself is controlly by the head unit which is a much better way to do it if you have the money, as the data is sent digitally39
Review for NOKIA HF-300W BLUETOOTH VISOR CARKIT:
The HF-300 is very easy to setup, and if you have a Nokia phone (I have an N95) it works really well with the voice commands (something else I didn't find very good on other phones I've used). All you have to do is hold the call button, say the name you want to call (which is repeated back to you so you can tell if it's wrong - although it's been right everytime for me), and in a few seconds it starts dialing. The sound quality is fine and it comes with a clip to attach to the car's sun-visor and an in-car charger. It's a shame there's no mains charger included but if your phone has the same charger that will work fine as well. It supports a long list of the newer Nokia phones and I would assume it would work with any Bluetooth compatible phone.
The only drawback is that it's a little expensive, but worth it if you do a lot of driving. I bought it from Accessory Shop on the Marketplace - I ordered on Thursday night and it was delivered on Saturday morning in perfect condition, so I would definitely recommend them.

Review for NOKIA HF-300W BLUETOOTH VISOR CARKIT:
Handy in-car kit
I just got this today and it's a very neat piece of kit. Essentially it's a Bluetooth headset but as a loud speaker instead. I used to have a headset but because I wear glasses it was too uncomfortable to leave on my ear all the time, and when I didn't wear it all the time, when someone called they would have given up waiting by the time I got the thing comfortable.The HF-300 is very easy to setup, and if you have a Nokia phone (I have an N95) it works really well with the voice commands (something else I didn't find very good on other phones I've used).

Review for OLIVIASPHONES NOKIA N95 MOBILE PHONE CAR CHARGER AND WINDSCREEN MOUNT HOLDER, ACCESSORIES .:
Great Product with a bit of a flaw.
Ordered and Received very quickly, and for the money personally I think the quality is excellent. The only gripe I have with the unit is that when the N95 is in the holder, the holder itself obscures the power socket so you can't use the included charger whilst it is in the cradle. This has an obvious impact on using this for GPS. However as it holds the phone so well I took a hacksaw to one of the supporting elements to free up the powersocket on the N95. Does just the job now, holds the phone securely, you have easy access for the GPS functions and you can charge it whilst using it.

Bargain!
These cotton ipod nano socks are amazing - they are just the right size for the new nanos and you get six vibrant colours! I ordered mine after buying a shiny ipod nano and the socks arrived in a couple of days, so i could start using them straight away!The black silicone case is sleek and offers good protection if you're looking for that extra bit of bounce in case you knock your ipod.
At such a low price, the socks are a much better buy than the Apple versions, which cost around £20 and are only differentiated by a little tag with their logo displayed.
I would definitely reccommend these cute little socks to anyone with a flair for style or wanting to take good care of their music baby!
