    Mounting a Touch Screen - Suction Cap

    I recently bought a touch screen to run GPS from my laptop. It works pretty well - it is just a bit difficult to get the laptop to make it the primary screen - practice will make it better.

    The screen came with a decent mount that will fit on my dash perfectly but I will have more flexibility if I could mount it via suction cap from the windscreen.

    Any idea where I might be able such a suction cap that actually works?

    Thanks

    GPSOZ sell the Ram Mount ones.

    They have two screws for the Ram system on the back but could easily be modified to suit other mounts. I bought one a few months ago. I think it cost me $27 all up including postage.
    It works very well and has only come off once while I was trying to put my PDA in the mount one-handed while driving ... bad idea. Off-road, it is very secure.

    Paul - thanks for the sites - there should be something there - the prices are a bit frightening though - the suction cap needs another little bit but it looks the goods.
