Anyone know a good mount for a cell phone for window or dash? My GoPro doesn't seem to do a very good job and the cell phone would do a better job and I could directly up load it to photobucket or youtube via wifi (or upload to computer via card or bluetooth). I know most folks go with the gopro, but for in-car video I think this would work well...does anyone go this route and have a proven mount?

Your GoPro doesn't do a good job? Is it not a high def one? I love my GoPro.

Although now that I have an Iphone 5, I'll be taking video using Harry's Lap Timer. You can't find something at Ram Mount that wouldn't work?

My gopro used to do a good job. It may be something that I am doing wrong with it, but the sound on it was horribly distorted and the picture quality wasn't good. I will review my settings but I just think my phone would do a better job. I never could remember to turn the thing off between runs, so I always ended up with like 2 minutes of extra video. Then a couple times I must have tried to turn it off before stopping video so it changed modes and took pictures. So I ended up with like 30 pictures instead of video's. Especially if you can get some datalogging apps that combine with videoing on a phone...IMHO that would be the way to go. I checked out Ram Mount but didn't look really close...I was hoping to find a mount that was made for my phone vs having to build one from parts (I don't trust my ability to piece something together and it work).
