...just installed this and I love it.

...and another vote for not being able to use it with glove on.   Probably safer that way.


Edit:  after riding a bit (and perhaps gloves got moist), I can use the iPhone while mounted.  This is in line with what others have noticed (preynoso?).

I have one for my ipod. Love it! Put the ipod in my pocket, the controls on the bars, and nothing to worry about. The controls are easy to work with gloves and then i dont have to worry about touching my ipod. I know they have adaptors for iphone too.
Bikes I've jumped and/or crashed:
84 Kawasaki KDX 80 - Bike i learned to ride on when I was young(er)
84 Kawasaki KDX 200 - First naked bike. crashed so frequently the plastics wouldnt stay on.
99 KTM 620 - If you could even get the thing kick started in the first place...
02 Yamaha Zuma - not a motorcycle but still crashed and jumped it way too many times.
04 Harley Road King Classic - Awesome story behind this
06 Ducati S2R 1000 - neither.... yet.

I have an ipod classic (160GB) and a Nano 8GB (4 gen i think, its the one right before the nano with a camera on it) And the system works for both.

This is actually cool. Plus it's easy to transfer from the bike to the car. I might be investing on this puppy. I wonder if it's water proof.

Ive been through a rain storm with it and havent had any issues yet. However, while riding in the rain, not much gets onto i because the windscreen keeps most of the water off if you are moving. Id be hesitant leaving it in the rain if i wasnt riding though. I dont think it is actually water proof.

Very cool mod and personally very interesting, I'm working on something very similar as a pitch- GPS on iphone/android platform that is dedicated to motorcycle use. I hadn't seen this case, but I'm focusing more on making the software more at a glance and alternative input methods....I'm not a fan of any distractions on the bike, so using the current gps solutions kinda freaks me out.

I want to do something like this for my Droid. I just need to find a case that will work. The car dock has a ball on it. I might see if I can get the Ram mount handlebar adapter to fit into it and put a strap to stop it fram falling out of the dock  just in case.
