Dear fellow chasers:

I recently noted an ad in Popular Photography for a
"Vehicle Camera Dash Mount" ($129.95) offered by
B & H Photo-Video. The ad reads:

For the traveler, police, military or anyone taking pictures
from their car with a camcorder or still camera. The Vehicle
Camera Dash Mount makes taking pictures smooth and
easy while traveling at highway speeds.
- Heavy-duty all metal construction, accommodates all
   camcorders and still cameras up to 8 lbs.
- Multi-adjustments, universal mount for all dashboards
- Easily attaches to inside windshield without tools in minutes.
- Easily installed, for use in car, van, truck or recreational
    vehichle.
- Fully adjustable platform, even for tilt angle.

The ad and spec sheet (from B&H) contains a small picture.
The camera is supported on a horizontal metal rail, with
rubber suction cups at the inside base of the windshield.
Underneath the rail is a metal support bar which fits along the
top vertical part of the dashboard.

Does anyone own this product. If so, what do you think of it?
