iGrip Universal Fit Flexible Mount - Profile View

If you are anything like me, you are either addicted to your Windows Phone or you’re in denial about it. A side effect of this addiction is that you don’t want to put your phone down any more than you have to, which can sometimes lead to problems. One example would be the fact that using your phone while driving can be dangerous and even illegal. There are however some legitimate reasons to have your phone where you can see it while driving. Being able to see the caller id when a call comes in or using traffic or navigation software are both valid uses of your cell phone while driving. To be able to accomplish this safely you really should have a mount, such as the Universal Fit Flexible Mount from iGrip.

We’ve reviewed iGrip products here before. I use their Sturdy Swivel Mount and have loved it ever since I got it. The Flexible Mount gives you some additional options for use. For one thing it holds the phone farther away from the glass, making it more practical for vehicles with a deeper dashboard.

For the full review of the iGrip Universal Fit Flexible Mount, hit the jump.

I don’t know how many people are as OCD as I am when it comes to keeping track of car maintenance and gas mileage. I’ve gotten burned a couple of times for not having done all of my scheduled maintenance. One of the things that I’ve been keeping an eye out for is a good method of tracking all of my vehicle related information. The problem that I keep coming across is that many of the software that performs this function depends on you entering data after the fact, which I tend to forget to do.

Auto 3in1 is a solution developed to work with a PC and a Windows Mobile device to allow you to keep track of gas mileage, maintenance performed and other car related information.

Stick around to see what exactly Auto 3in1 does for you, and how well it works.

Review: iGrip Universal Fit Sturdy Swivel Mount

With all of the hype over cell phones and vehicles, more and more people are using (and are even required by law to use) various forms of hands free devices. On the other side of the coin though, there are times when having your phone within reach is necessary. One example in particular is the use of GPS software on your phone. We at WMExperts have done a couple of reviews recently on GPS software that is available for Windows Mobile, but how do you make use of the GPS functionality and still maintain a reasonable level of safety?

iGrip makes an array of vehicle mounts for mobile devices. The style you choose depends largely on what type of vehicle you drive and what your needs are. This review will take a look at the iGrip Universal Fit Sturdy Swivel Mount. Click on for the full review.
