• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

I have searched through a lot of the threads but don't see the best solution out there. Debating on mounting my iPhone4 or iPad2 to my Spyder RSS for when taking longer trips. I want something that is a secure mount and not just a clip in type holster. I also want to make sure it is waterproof solution. I found a couple options for the iPhone from the UK.....but what is everyone else using like this?
 
I use this case; http://www.lifeproof.com/

Secured by this holder; http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B0014S5FVQ/ref=mp_s_a_1?qid=1328979296&sr=8-1

Fastened to this mount which utilizes two of the handlebar bolts; http://www.techmounts.com/products/index.php?page_function=detail&product_id=192


Fits like a glove, it all bolts together. No drilling or cutting. The four holes in the back of the phone holder line up perfectly with the mount holes. Some small pan screws and nylock nuts and all is good to go.

100% waterproof. Less bulky than my old Otterbox defender. I love this setup.

Many thousands of miles. No probs other than my voice is muffled a bit on regular phone calls. Just got used to holding the mic closer to my big mouth.

Edit: forgot to mention for iPhone 4. Not iPad.
 
I also use the "Lifeproof" case on my 4s and use the Ram X-Gripe on my RS,works great,easy to put on and off without taking off the case. The x-gripe is good as you can use it for any phone or GPS since its adjustable . I think life proof is making a case for the iPad 2(don't think its avil. yet)
