HTC Desire Bike Mount

Thinking of setting up my HTC desire as an on board satnav/sportstracker with the use of the following:http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=150515392179&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT

OR: http://www.ultimate-mobiles.co.uk/mobile-phones/htc/htc-desire-accessories/motorcycle-bicycle-holders/ua-bike-mount-waterproof-case___421.htm

Any thoughts from those that may have similar?

Thanks in advance

I wouldn't:

Probed for more information, HTC’s support guy allegedly told them “Putting a phone in a tight pair of jeans and sitting down would usually cause that kind of damage,” and that “People sometimes forget that they don’t go in pockets.”

I broke my Legend after it was in a back pocket and a fairly light object in a pocket in front of it (winter, two jackets) was rattling (not banging) against it. They are pretty fragile and I wouldn't be using one as a bike computer.

That's just me, if you do get one, make sure it has plenty of damping.

It's a very bad idea.
