Hey guys,
I'm fantasizing about a car dock, preferably a vent holder, where I can snap my N7 on in the way to work. (Over an hour commute)
Wondering... is anything like this available or in production? Thanks!

Car Mount
I have a Mountek's CD Slot Mount, Universal Hands-Free Car Mount for Cell Phones & GPS Devices which holds my Galaxy Nexus with room to spare, I am hoping come Friday when my tablet arrives to test this out, if it holds up I will take some pictures and give a review.

I would love something like this that would hold it in landscape format.
I picked up one of these Ram mounts to use with my Nook Color a little while back. It's OK, but I'm not crazy about it.
I'd really like to find something custom fitted for the N7. Pogo charging pins would be great too. Hopefully Google and/or Asus come out with a full range of docking options.
How about this?

Learned years ago from my Palm Pre, and re-inforced by my Thunderbolt, that running GPS and Pandora over bluetooth while charging in the car caused the device to get too hot and shut down. Windshield mounts are a no no for this reason (let alone of 7" tablet up there).
The CD slot mount is a good idea, will be interested to see if it (or another one) will hold the tablet.

Never had this issue with my Thunderbolt nor my Galaxy Nexus, and both made the 15 hour drive to Florida with Nav and wifi hotspot running the whole time.

Yeah, I've done that with my old DX and my GNex, and they never shut down. This is in Cleveland, and at least one time I remember it was in mid-90 degree temps.
As to the OP, if we can get a car dock with POGO pins (since we apparently can't get one that doesn't require a crapload of sanding for the Verizon GNex), that would be awesome. Pop that in the dock, enable wifi-tethering, and you're good to go. And the larger screen would be great in a car.

I found this on ebay.
That CD mount looks interesting. Does that remove the capability of using a cd? Would the car think a cd is going in and try to pull it in ? D: That looks pretty awesome. I might get it.

I'm really hoping there's a car dock that takes advantage of the pogo pins as well. I'm not going to really get my hopes up but it would be awesome. I've looked into the Ram Mount X-Grip for tablets along with various mounting parts but something that was all in one that charged it would be ideal. Maybe the Nexus 7 will be popular enough for a third party to make one specific for it, maybe proclip will do it.
Yup - not a fan of anything "Suction Mount" ... I've had them give out and fall down while driving, and can be a real pain / hazard. Cup-holder arms, vent mounts, or even a good CD mount.. sounds great to me.. a nice all-in-one snap in place w/ pins would be ideal.
This one is a bit more expensive but looks well made.

I am usually weary about suction mounts but their phone mount is amazingly strong and has never failed on me.

For those of us with kids, the headrest mount looks like a nice solution for those long trips.

if anyone can find a cellphone/tablet mount post it here! I'd be interested since I frequently would want to mount my phone along with occasionally mounting the n7
So I was sitting at home thinking how cool it would be to use my Nexus 7 as a navigation unit / general multimedia device in my car. I already have a touch screen unit in my car from Pioneer, but it’s not that great. It’s very pixelated, it doesn’t have navigation and it’s a bit small. So I devised a plan on how to mount it in my car. But before building my final mounting bracket, I decided to give it a test run, to make sure that everything would work great. I have all the maps preloaded on the device, and I have it connected to my Galaxy S3 (rooted, custom ROM) for wifi tethering.
I just picked up some “Kwik Klips 3/8” 10mm” from my local hardware store, and cut them up and guess what – it mounted fantastic. Three clips hold it on the bottom, and at the top it is tucked under my stereo door cover to make it very sturdy. I went on a 30 mile trip today just to make sure everything is smooth – and it is. This weekend my parts are supposed to come in so I can have a concealed charging cable for it so it is not using battery.
My car is a 2010 Scion tC.
I’ve uploaded four pics here, but go to my dropbox to see the gallery.

I keep my N7 tethered to my EVO during the day. That's how I use mine for navigation. I use the satellite layer also as I can't stand the 'cartoon' look.

Cool. That's what I figured. I tried to grab a N4 to do the same thing (in the process of rehabilitating from the apple cult), but couldn't get one, so I'm still using the iphone (no tether without paying extra).
Yes I am using my GS3 as a mobile WiFi hotspot for free (custom ROM).
I haven't tried the satellite view yet, I don't mind the cartoonish view too much. But overall using the N7 as a navi has been fantastic.

You might want to try Bluetooth internet sharing. Its honestly the most underrated feature of android >4.0. Sure, the range is 10-20ft, and the speed is limited to 2mbs, but in a car and for navigation apps neither of those matter. You save a lot of battery though and its easy to set up by just tapping a button on your tablet only.

Bluetooth internet sharing is definitely not the ultimate solution. Many apps won't work with it. Prime examples: Pandora and TuneIn Radio. Also, nothing will download from the Play Store (at least apps).
You'll save a lot of battery on the phone, sure. When I was trying out bluetooth tether my N7 got prettyy hot, and was fine with Wifi sharing. Perhaps it was simply an app causing that, but I don't think so.
I just removed the radio cover, and placed the N7 in the hole.
...and since I'm still a noob:
Code:

I'd do this, but I don't want to have my radio constantly in view at night. One of our cars was broken into and now I don't leave anything in view.

I'm still rocking the stock head unit; no one wants that.
I thought about trimming the extra plastic off the cover (just enough to fit) and set it back in place when I parked the car.
Depends on the Bluetooth setup. If you are not using Bluetooth to stream the sound, uncheck it in the Pandora settings and Pandora works great.
I download apps all day long using Bluetooth for my data. I find it easier then dealing with a hotspot. Battery life is significantly better for me to.

Does BT support multiple simultaneous pairings? I usually have my phone tied to the car via BT. If it can do that and data share, that'd be awesome. Well, maybe. Not sure if it'd help, but it'd be nice to know.

If you were talking to me, yeah I did get the charging cable installed, and no I didn't have to rough it up at all. The tape that was with those clips was sufficient.
But now I took that all off. I just bought this iBolt windshield mount for my GS3. It's easier for me this way, because I don't have to setup tethering and charge two devices.
It was fun though while it lasted.
And it blocked my radio, so that got really annoying after a few days of not being able to switch XM channels.
Just watched the Android Christmas Card video....there is a Nxxus 10 dock pictured right at the 1:00 mark...hoping this is real. Looks like it is.
It's certainly encouraging. With the news of the POGO pin connector, the pictures of the Nexus 7 dock and now this video from the Android Team, I'm very hopeful. I know I will buy the dock as soon as it is released.
It would be a Christmas miracle!
Will it charge faster than the micro usb?
Otherwise why waste the money.

Some of us wants to be able to use a dock as a dock... charging faster will be a plus for me but i'd like to use an official POGO pin dock that I can place on my counter to charge as I browse. Or even slow the battery drain when I play music/movie.
TLDR: Having a dock is freaking awesome.

A dock offers more then just charging... It also serves.. as a stand.

Good eye! I was hoping we'd see a dock with pricing and delivery at CES next month. Can't wait to get one so I can hack it...
Guess it does mean, a dock is coming, couldn't care less about it though I would prefer if they would release an official keyboard dock like the one ASUS transformer has.
I wouldn't be waiting for this to come out as Nexus device accessories don't have the best track record. *Waiting on Nexus 4 orb charger*
while u wait get the energizer qi on amazon, i found one for 50 bux totally worth it
The nexus 7 dock looks nice but I thought the nexus 10 dock looked too small and the tablet didn't seem very secure /stable /safe in it. I wish they made it longer.

Nocoast, shame you can't use it on the n10. I'm sad no company has made a generic qi home dock for phones and tablets. I'm even more sad no company has made a universal car qi dock.
I use touchstones in the car and house for my gnex and the wife's s3. Of prefer having something more future proof for phones like the n4 that have it built in. Hardware jacks aren't that fun. The touchstone are nice and small though, but the phone angles will in it are shallow. Pivot mount mechanism works in the car though.
I gotta say I don't think that's a dock at all, it doesn't make sense to have a 4 inch dock for 10 inch tablet, I think that was just a generic plastic stand
Hmm, have you ever seen an official iPad dock? there is a reason behind that, the tablet is not small, big dock will look bulky and no aesthetic with it, maybe Apple know something we don't , but then again there are magnets, we also don't know what the shape of it, maybe it holds still, and actually similar to iPad dock...just my thoughts :cyclops:

The N10 is my first Nexus product & I expected more from Google in the way of accessories. I work for B&N & we have the widest & most varied selection of accessories that I have ever seen for any device under one roof. Perhaps I'm just spoiled, but I don't think my expectations are too high. Google has the capability to provide accessories & I don't understand why they haven't.
After seeing that the HD+ was on sale this week at Officemax I couldnt help myself and ran out and grabbed one. It's really hard to beat this thing for $99 with a decently fast processor, GPU, and a 1080P IPS screen that looks great.
That said I plan on installing it into the dash of my Mustang. I have done this before with a Galaxy tab in my old Blazer, it had built in GPS though. I am thinking about grabbing a bluetooth GPS receiver to pair with it in my car. I have never used one before so don't know exactly what to look for when shopping for one. Anyone have any suggestions or comments for a good unit? One that I can plug in and leave in my car, gets an accurate lock, and will work with the tablet without any issue.
Thank you guys for the suggestions or comments.
Also thank you Verggreen and anyone else that has worked to make CM10.1 easy to install on the HD+. I got it on mine and love it so far.

SHARKK Backlight BT 3.0
I use that keyboard that I got for Christmas this year. no issue pairing on CM 10.2 or CM 11. It has a multi-colored backlight that you can choose, dedicated media keys, brightness keys which are SUPER convenient, Screen lock key, etc. It's really thin and I haven't charged it since I got it (Jan 12th, late gift.) I really like it. The ONLY complaint I have is that the metal they chose for it's structure is soft and really flexible, so bending on it even slightly with through it out of alignment and then typing on it, it will click and clang around on the table or desk. requiring a readjustment to straighten it. a minor annoyance but still worth mentioning.
That sharkk one does look nice, but does anyone know of a keyboard that you can attach to the tablet somehow?
I really miss that feature from my TF700 (it was probably the only great aspect of it).

I just picked up a Nook HD+ and a HP K4000 bluetooth keyboard.
The k4000 wouldn't pair with the Nook, but worked with all my other devices.
After an hour wasted with tech support from HP and B&N, google searches led me to forums that suggested downloading and installing
an app from the Google Play store:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.teksoftco.android.blueinput&hl=en
It worked, but I'm not sure about the app.
Any other suggestions on another method, or google play app, that will make this work?
Thanks
That app is real iffy, unfortunately. The nook hd will work well with Bluetooth keyboards while on a stock rom, however the keyboard has to be android specific. Something about the way the Bluetooth is setup. If you root the device and put cyanogenmod rom on the nook hd, those restrictions no longer pose a problem, and any bluetooth keyboard will work
