anybody can suggest/recommed any car holder which are easily installed..I mean whenever I need to put the kaiser in any car that can be done so easily? are there such solutions available or custom made?
You're looking for one of the "Windsheild/Suction Cup" mounts. Just about any website that sells cases etc for the Kaiser will also have one or more of these.

Has anyone ordered this and tried it on a Vodaphone VPA ? Does it work ?
Thanks in advance
Got one in my car, works a treat for holding and charging it. The cradle's also got a telephone-socket-like port for a Serial GPS, but I use bluetooth so I've never used it.
Hi
Yes but which PDA do you have ? Is it a Vodqphone VPA ?
You posted in the "Himalaya & Andes" section, I'm using it with an XDA II.
Take a look at Brodit mounts on www.handnav.co.uk , you buy the type of holder you want for your PDA (powered/basic etc..) then buy a clip designed specifically for your make/model of car.
Each one is designed specifically for each car and just clips on to dash trim without screws etc..
Top notch kit
The one posted above uses a suction mount on the windscreen, been on for almost 2 months now and it's not fallen off once.
Ok, apparently it doe snot work with the Vodafone VPa, bu they have sent me one for this model and that works fine
check out a device called a berry from a company called SPcomms
Works with the XDAIIi and other models. really funky toy
Hi! iam planning to buy a cradle(with gooseneck option) for jasjar to use it in my car. i have looked for few options but if some 1 has had them can guide me better as to buy which one? i have had a talk from some 1 called david soppelsa(from U.K, using bryson as his id on this website) . He is selling brodit cradles..i wanted to ask if some one has brought the same from him? How are the brodit cradles? Your suggestions would be highly suggested.

I have a brodit passive cradle and it is great holds it very secure
I use the proclip (brodit versions in usa). I don't like the goose necks as they tend to move/vibrate a lot. The proclip have specific mounts for specific automobiles which fit and take only a couple of minutes to attach.
Allows you to use the universal in either landscape or portrait mode. I hook a cassette sound adapter to the uni's headphone jack and listen to mp3's or listen/watch tv via orb.com over my car speakers.
thanks for suggestions guys, but i have an suv ford endevour and they dont have a clip for that.. so no other option then goose neck..has any 1 brought any stuff from the above named guy?

You can connect the Brodit/Proclip holder to a windscreen mount - there are conversion adapters between the HR system and Brodit.
You can also send a request to ProClip/Brodit to include the Endeavour in their offering.
I have had installed in my car a rather nice tbh bury car kit , nice in that you can swap cradles for different phones thus the kit never becomes obselete.
i got a cradle for my hermes but it does not route anything through the kits external speaker making it an expensive charging cradle , i noticed that other htc handsets have software patches to make them work with these cradles but thus far thb have offere no answer to my problem , anyone else have this or a similar kit and found an issue?
Hi,
I found this on another forum
http://www.expansys.co.nz/ft.aspx?i=117490&thread=34
the guy had the same problem, no sound from the hands free kit, turned out to be a faulty cradle

look in their support site, there's a wave.dll or something similar to resolve this issue. It's specific for the tytn:
MDA III - Important information:
If you wish to hear audio response over car speakers, you have to replace file "Wavedev.dll" on your MDA III. Please reset system after replacing. Manual D
check here http://www.bury.com/technologies/GB/hands-free/47/UNI_Take&Talk/HTC/

did you ever resolve this problem? I use thb kit and eventually got mine working.
Hi, I'm thinking on buying ORA Car Pack
http://www.mobileplanet.com/p.aspx?i=153768&asource=151727
They sell it for 27 dollars. Does anyone own this? Can someone give me a recommendation? I want to buy a cheap carkit for my kaiser, with 12v power included. I want to have it glue to my car dashboard or to my windshield with a vent mount.
Thanks in advanced
In the past I also bought car kits made for that specific PDA I owned by that time. The problem though is that - during your "PDA-life" - you spend a fortune on this so I decided to go for some "general" system like Brodit or Richter (see http://www.mobileplanet.com/p.aspx?i=156824). The advantage with this system is that you only have to replace the actual PDA holder rather than the complete system when you get a new tech toy - which is also less expensive.
I'm very happy with the Richter system now since quite a number of years.

Well interesting point of view but the ORA car park system, seems to be a universal type of holder and would as such suit their owners in case of pdas change
I'm curious about return of experiences too.
About that ORA system, but also about the Arkon CM799 http://www.mobileplanet.com/p.aspx?i=147464
which would seem to suit the TyTN II too.
As I'm thinking of having the Kaiser into some kind of hard plastic or rubber protector case, I think it's best I stay away from specific to the TyTN II car kit since the phone would be to thick to hold in the especially designed systems.
One question for you Eurybia though : does the adapter you got for the Richter system allows to have the ability to have the Kaiser keypad opened or closed at will ?
Thanks !
I dont like Arkon product. I bought an active charger before, but after not more than 5 months, the "spring" to hold the PDA was loosen (not tight anymore).

Nope.
And even when I think about this feature now I wouldn't miss that anyway. In times of bluetooth, voice dialing and more or less mainly GPS usage in the car I wouldn't use the keyboard while driving anyway. For me the most important thing is that the unit is fixed properly in the holder so it won't drop between the seats or alike even on rough roads.
My eyes are too bad and my fingers too big to play distant-mice-piano anyway.
Anyway, nor the arkon active holder nor the brodit (or Richter ) active holder costs 27 dollars. So I asked again to see if anyone owns one of this or if someon can recomend an active holder carkit for more or less the same price.
Hi,
I researched this quite extensively but no real solution yet.
I have Kaiser and I recently bought Audi Q7. Kaiser works fairly OK over Bluetooth (Jetware installed). I can see and import contacts - not a very elegant process since the name and surname get joined up and all the numbers, which belong to any one contacts are shown separately (with /M, /W etc.) and I have to do a lot of work manually to sort everything out after import. But I can live with that.
However, I would like to integrate my Kaiser into the phone prep located underneath the central armrest (I believe it is universal so I can put on any cradle supplied by Audi - it just seems from the list of supported devices that Audi sells no cradle compatible with Kaiser or any PDA phone), so it would use the power supply and antenna in the car.
Can anyone help me in any way?
So, no solution anyone? I've been searching for days now and it seems that the only practical thing would be to buy a cradle for another phone and then convert it somehow for use with Kaiser... Not a very elegant solution though...

You can use Bluetooth rSAP adaptator for this connection: it is Audi ref. 8P0 051 440 for the A4 (2008);and it looks identical connection...
You may also have standard hand free bluetooth by the MMI (but this don't use external car reception), I can use the phone contacts also this way in A4...
