 I was skeptical, but it works great, 2007-10-23
I have a 2001 VW Beetle, which has lots of great curved surfaces all over the dashboard. That, and the windshield being about 2.5 feet in front of the steering wheel meant that I didn't have any good place to stick the suction mount. It looked like this was the only other real solution, but I was skeptical about just placing something on my dashboard and expecting it to stay there. Between the sticky rubber surface on the bottom, and the beanbag weights (this thing is pretty heavy for its size) on the sides, my Nuvi 370 barely moves at all. On a 4-hour trip, I might only have to nudge it back up the dashboard a few centimeters. I haven't taken this through any race track hairpin turns, but it has been very steady through all of my somewhat-aggressive Boston driving.
Another great feature of this is that when you leave your car, you can just place the whole mount out of view, instead of just taking the GPS unit off the dashboard. If you were looking to break into a car and see a mount on the windshield, isn't your first thought that the GPS is probably just stowed away in the glove compartment?

Effective GPS Mount, 2007-10-23
This works better than the suction cup mount. It can be placed in locations more convenient for use and does not move even when bouncing along in my 4 wheel drive Dodge Ram 2500 pulling a travel trailer!

works great!!, 2007-10-22
I have been using this for past couple of weeks and so far it stays in place on the dash.

Garmin Portable Friction Mount, 2007-10-21
This mount works great on your dashboard. The GPS stays right where you put it with the exception of very bumpy roads (which is to be expected since it requires weight to hold it in place, therefore, airborne= no weight= it moves). I love this mount and am so much happier with my GPS since I bought this. It is so much easier to just take off the dash when you park your car and don't want the world to know that you have a GPS for them to steal.

Works great!, 2007-10-21
This friction mount works perfectly. I have used it for several weeks now and it has worked flawlessly. My Nuvi releases quickly and I can either leave the mount on the dash or set it on the floor to "hide it." Either way, this mount is much less obvious to someone walking by than the suction mount (no suction rings left on the window).
And I just moved to California, where it is illegal to have items suctioned to your window...
