Thanks Jason for an informative review. One question: how did you secure your Android unit (Hero or Magic?) to dashboard or did you not perhaps do so?

FWIW, I use a £10 sucker mount from Halfords to hold my G1 to the dash, with a 12V charger hard wired into the ignition system. Works well enough, but the CP8 on the G1 certainly works better in portrait mode.

Brodit and Carcomm both have cradles for the HTC Hero.

Maft, youre very cheap!

Anyway, anyone using CPL8 on Android? There was an update yesterday and I cannot find anything about it.

Yeah, I got that update, but it hasn't fixed any of the safety cam issues. I may try it again in landscape mode to see if that's improved at all.
