Car Mount Kit For The iPhone?

I really need a car kit that would enable me to mount my iPhone up around my car's AC vent so that I can see the screen and maniuplate the touchscreen while driving. Does anone know of an iPod-ready or custom iPhone mount kit that will work?

It would be great to be able to plug my car charger into the phone while it's in the mount, so it would be ready to go whenever I get out of the car.

Any ideas?

Windows XP Pro, iPhone 8gb

There is also one available on Amazon:

Look at Device Numbers 875168, 870168, or 848636. Proclip is also working on a mount that has a pass-through dock connector so you just set the iPod/iPhone in it without having to manually connect the cable. It is expected around November.

Thanks for the ideas! I have had the ProClip product in another car with another mobile phone, and they are super high quality...but the mounts they have are not compatible with where I want to place my phone in my car (2004 Cadillac CTS). The a/c vent mount is only for the left side and I am right handed, so that is particulary awkward.

I am leaning toward the Gomadic 4-in-1 holder that is available on Amazon, like the above poster mentioned. It seems to have the mounting location I want...plus has placement for the charger and even a GPS if I want ot add one later.

Thanks again...
