Default iPaq Car Mount/Holder

Hi, I was wondering if anyone knows where I can get something like this locally in Oz. That powers/charges the iPaq and also has an amplified speaker.

http://www.pdahut.com/store/product....cat=337&page=1

or

http://www.handnav.co.uk/product_details.php?id=1682 (for 5450)

Mount looks much better than the flexible ones and it charges, but it's missing the amplified speaker.

Tried searching through ebay and nothing. All they have is pda holders or model specific mounts. I have an iPaq 5450.

I purchased a Haicom 3 in 1 Car Holder (http://www.haicom.com.tw/Voice_carholder.shtml) from MyTech Central in Castle Hill Shopping Centre, Sydney for $129.00. It took them around 1 week to order in the specific power supply plug which snaps into the bottom of the mount. (The unit I had came with a iPaq 19xx plug). It has a speaker on the back, and a PS2 socket to add a GPS unit to it.

I got one of these from (http://www.ja-gps.com.au/gps-haicom-accs3.html) for $60. Only problem is that my ipaq does not dock on the connector properly. The connector is a bit dodgy. The only way it connects is if I remove the connector from the cradle first, connect to the ipaq , then plug the connector/ipaq to the cradle.

My ipaq charger and ipaq cradle connects fine to my ipaq 5450 though. Might see if I can get another connector if it makes a diff. Could just be the on that came with might. Hopefully the shop will replace it for me otherwise might be returning it.

Nice cradle thought. 3d arm, charger, amplified speakers.
