Liliputing Holiday Giveaway: Universal car mount from Ultimate-Netbook

universal mount

Car-mounts for netbooks are fascinating things. Add a GPS receiver and your netbook can instantly become a full featured GPS system with an enormous display (by GPS standards). You can also use a mount to plug a netbook into your car audio system and use it as a jukebox, although I’d recommend having the person in the passenger’s seat manage the media player controls.

UK-based retailer Ultimate-Netbook offers a universal car mount that can accommodate netbooks ranging from 7″ to 13″ in size. It normally retails for about $36, but Ultimate Netbook has offered up the universal mount along with a $25 universal netbook car charger with a USB port for the Liliputing Holiday Giveway.

In order to enter, just leave a comment below explaining what you plan to do with this car mount and car charger set. The contest is open to anyone in the world, and I’ll randomly select a winner after the contest closes at 12:01AM Eastern on November 27th.

Make sure to read the official contest rules before entering.

    I would use it with my Acer Aspire One (old SSD version) for GPS navigation. For the moment, I am obliged to have a copilot holding my laptop ;-)

    This would be great to keep my husband mind on something other than my driving and let me drive in peace and quiet. I do hope it includes ear phones.

    I would use it to watch movies with my girlfriend. A nice little cheap date night.
  • K.W.Eaches
    I do a lot of rolling around doing local IT support, and there's a lot of sitting in the car filling out invoices,etc. . Mounting my Aspire 1410 in this would be great. I already use it with a GPS dongle. With a USB cell modem I'd pretty much be able to ditch the stand-alone GPS, other laptop, MP3 player, AND phone. That's kinda sweet.

    I would use the mount to build the ultimate trip computer for my car. I already have the netbook and GPS. Just no mount. This would be perfect for my drive from Michigan to Florida next year.

    I'd mount it in the car and use it as a GPS netbook. The larger screen would be a relief to my tired driving eyes.

    Install it in my truck, charge up my lappy and listen to some Pandora or something like that...
  • petepdx
    A great idea for GPS. Also, after washing the window with Windex, this would make a great mount for use OUTSIDE of your car (i.e., while taking a break at a rest stop).
  • I'm going to use it for easy listening to Spotify!

    Use it as part of a james bond like car experiment.
  • Scott
    Actually I am kind of a skeptic wondering if a lot of this stuff really works.
    So that would be my reason, to see if it works. I could get lost in the Oregon coast woods where I live though, there stories all the time about that. (I really hope I am not that lame though)I have never even seen anything gps and come from a time where you just got a free map that doesn't talk to you. By the way trying to see the contest rules didnt work for me says "You do not have permission to preview drafts."
  • If I was to be so fortunate to win this I would use it, along with my Dell Mini9, to manage Disaster Relief activities while responding to call outs.
  • kevem
