I remedied this by adjusting the joint so that the phone is already as far down as it can go and aimed at me. Doing that limits the places I can aim the phone, but I don't typically adjust it while driving so it's not that big of a deal. I spent a long time keeping my phone on my lap to watch traffic - this is a nice way to solve that problem. There are a number of ways of mounting, I used the windshield mount. That's my only real gripe about it and not a deal breaker by any means. Another thing I like about this is that the ball socket joint allows you to use the phone in either portrait or landscape mode which is nice.
Next tried to suction to the adhesive mount and it worked perfectly. Gave me the flexibility to put it wherever I wanted (that's what she said). Despite its poor design, it does function properly as a mount with my Samsung Galaxy S 4G. I clipped this onto my vent and am surprised at how well it works. I was impressed with the quality of the Windshield mount and was happy to see how snug my phone fit. The adjustable arms were such a great idea.
I read a review on here before I bought that the suction cup doesn't stay at all. Whoever wrote that review is straight up inept. The vent mount works with my 06 Accord. I needed a car mount for my Samsung Captivate, and I found this product via the XDA forums.
Even with bumper and cases on it. I can see this working for many other devices too.
The other seller was selling the exact same product with only one of the mounts for an additional $5, so this is a great deal compared to other sellers. I purchased this for my Droid Incredible and it fits perfectly, with the Otterbox case that I have for it.
Blowing hot air behind it is probably not a good idea. Use a sun shield when parked, all plastics don't last long under the sun. It flips easily to landscape. Suction cup is strong; I'm using it on my windshield. I also went to their facility in Altadena and picked up a motorcycle mount which works amazingly well. I use my Droid X with Google Maps for Navigation on the bike and with the motorcycle mount strap; I have no concerns of my phone leaving me. It's a very solid mount. It's a great purchase for me. Then the plastic gears stripped their teeth and the unit would no longer hold my phone tightly.

I emailed Arkon, and got a very fast response (within a day.) They shipped me out a replacement suction cup. LOW CARB PROTEIN BARS.
