A Lovely 10C Site!

Looked at an expensive (> $55) mobile phone cradle to use with the big Lumia 1520. It's a suction cup mount with an adhesive suction surface that can apparently/allegedly cling to rough/uneven surfaces. Next there's a swivelling ball joint & a very powerful magnetic plate of about one square inch in area. The kit comes with two very thin steel sheets that are stuck to the back of the phone (one on the phone & one spare), and can fit between the phone & any case it might be in.

But that was too expensive/complex. The lumia 1520 is 3½ inches wide, the adaptor I chose can open to at least 4 inches. This one was chosen for that reason & that it would fit my current windscreen mount.

@JeremyCherfas So is it the DS or the more basic ID?

Bit the bullet & paid over $30 for a Windows Phone app today. I recall using Sygic GPS Navigation, etc as a 7-day trial when I used the Lumia 1020 but did't continue with it as it didn't offer much more than Nokia Here Maps & Here Drive+. The Here series of apps no longer work in WinPho 10, Microsoft Maps navigation features are feeble at best.
I tried a number of the available apps but none are a patch on Sygic. I'm afraid the WinPho version of Waze is a feeble & crippled piece of shit when compared even to its Android version, let alone the iOS variant.

@matigo Compliant is an anagram of complaint. Just saying.

Still Summer, almost Autumn.

@indigo This is the one I have: http://m.ebay.com/itm/271274623968

It folds in the middle then at the base of the kickstand part. It then slides in under the cover.

@indigo If it's the same as the Palm folding/sliding keyboard I have, it uses an IR connection to the Palm. AFAIK, it was a wee bit bigger than an EeePC netbook keyboard.
