I'm using a suction mounted windscreen holder, but instead of a cradle I opted for the magnetic holder. It means you have to glue a small metal plate onto the back of the phone, but it's unobrusive and it does make the phone look neater in car and will show off the 6630 well (I'm upgrading to a 6630 from a 6600 soon :D )
Although it's suction mounted, it has a screw mechinism to attach to the windscreen - no spit required!! It holds the phone firmly and makes a satisfying 'clunk' when you engage the phone to the stem. I find without a chunky cradle, I can have the phone mounted closer to my direct field of vision, almost like the head up display's used by pilots, without blocking the rest of my view. I also find it easier to hear the voice instructions as it closer to my head 
As usual, available from eBay  |

How about the genuine Nokia Phone Holder CR-1?

Does that Nokia holder come with all the brackets, bits and bobs to mount it in your car?.
From what I gather it has to be used with the Nokia handsfree car kit which costs an additional £99 which I don't want to spend as I don't need the mics and speakers etc that come with it, and you are obviously paying those at £99!!.
Does anyone know of a holder that supplies power to the 6630 without you having to manually plug in the seperate phone charger lead everytime?. |

Mine used to shake quite a lot until I realised the little plastic tabs holding it to the suction cup were breaking one at a time, eventually it fell off completely. I couldn't believe how fragile it actually was.
Now I have a vent mounted holder, now it's a handy place almost next to my steering wheel, I can press the buttons without letting go of the wheel. It's also much easier to read as it's closer and doesn't bounce around.
