What mounts are you all using or the smartphone mount?
I got an iOttie mount ( http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00B78MT44/ref=oh_details_o... ) and an Aduro mount ( http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B008ALV0V4/ref=oh_details_o... ) but I don't like the suction base of these units.

What to buy, cell phone for Bluetooth hearing aids
I have another question for all of you again...
I have always just had a simple flip phone that I could make calls on.
Now I want a smart phone. I now have Bluetooth to my hearing aids and my phone rings in my ears and I answer it without the phone. But, when it rings I do not know who is calling as the phone is in my purse.

Considering An iPhone
Even though I like my Nexus 4 and the Android OS, I am considering an iPhone to see how they compare. I really want the ability to use Dyle TV and the Garmin StreetPilot OnBoard App. Anyway, now that the Garmin StreetPilot OnBoard App has been out for a while, how well does it work? Is it pretty stable or does Garmin still have some "bugs" to work out on it?

navigon app?'s
I'm thinking of getting the navigon app for an Android and want to know a few things. I've had several Nuvis, but. So if anyone has the app feel free to jump in!
Does it show you the current street (Garmins do not)?
What does it use for traffic?
How well do contacts work to plot a route?

While most can agree the first releases of Apple's mapping software had numerous problems with both the location data and the visual displays of the locations, it looks like Apple is again addressing known flaws in their mapping software as reported by PCMag.

Garmin iPhone - Can you add POIs?
https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/garmin-n.-america/id43574086...
Can you add POI files to this app?? I've downloaded it, and it has some great features that my Nuvi doesn't have, but one really important feature I can't find, is the ability to add POIs, anyone know??
Thanks.
