Thanks Rob!

That's certainly an option, though it'll still lay flat on the dash. I kinda
want something I can manipulate the position of - like a suction cup mount
or something. I do put it on the dash now and as long as I don't have it
plugged into the stereo or the charger, it'll stay. But if I plug it in to
either of those, it slips off onto the floor.
