I am fortunate that I am now able to spend an immense amount of time traveling to those places that I have always wanted to visit and when I go someplace new I usually use my Pocket PC with TomTom 6. It is a great program and always gets me where I want to go but sometimes I really want to “adapt” the route I have to travel and if it is a long trip adding “vias” using my Pocket PC can prove to be a tedious task.

In the final analysis, I prefer to use DeLorme’s Street Atlas USA on my Sony Vaio laptop, LS800 tablet or SonyUX because I can easily plan my route on my PC and import the route onto those devices. Ease of planning is a huge factor and using the “bigger screen” often proves to be a big advantage. But the issue is how do you deal with the bigger device? I have a great mount for my Pocket PC that adapts to virtually all of my phone devices but it won’t adapt to my bigger devices and even if it could, it just is not durable enough to handle a larger heavier device. So the search began to find a great mount and it stopped at RAM Mounting Systems.

When I first visited their site and started to look at their solutions I could see that the products were “heavy duty”, yet designed to be as unobtrusive as possible without compromising the ultimate reason for using a RAM Mount …. security for your device. I was convinced that I wanted a suction cup mounting system for ease of use and I was sure that I wanted to get one that I could use my Sony UX with.
