Electronic device mount

A mount operable to removably couple an electronic device to a surface, the mount comprising:

• an antenna operable to receive a navigation signal;
• a processor coupled with the antenna and operable to generate navigation information utilizing the received navigation signal;
• a transmitter coupled with the processor and operable to wirelessly transmit the generated navigation information to the electronic device;
• and
• a housing to house at least portions of the processor and the transmitter, the housing including:
• a front portion,
• a rear portion generally opposed to the front portion, the rear portion including a mounting element operable to couple with the surface, and
• a plurality of spring-biased posts positioned around a least a portion of the periphery of the front portion and operable to securely retain the electronic device, wherein the generated navigation information is selected from the group consisting of a current geographic location of the mount, a previous geographic location of the mount, a speed of the mount, a distance traveled by the mount, a route from the mount to a desired geographic location, a map corresponding to a determined geographic location, and combinations thereof.

A mount operable to removably couple an electronic device to a surface, the mount comprising:

• an antenna operable to receive a Global Positioning System (GPS) signal;
• a processor coupled with the antenna and operable to generate navigation information utilizing the received signal, wherein the generated navigation information is selected from the group consisting of a current geographic location of the mount and a speed of the mount;
• a Bluetooth transmitter coupled with the processor and operable to wirelessly transmit the generated navigation information to the electronic device, wherein the transmitter is further operable to transmit and receive audio information to and from the electronic device;
• and
• a housing to house at least portions of the processor and the transmitter, the housing Including-a
• microphone and a speaker each coupled with the processor to receive and produce the audio information,
• a front portion,
• a rear portion generally opposed to the front portion, the rear portion including a mounting element to enable the mount to be coupled with the surface, and
• a plurality of spring-biased posts positioned around a least a portion of the periphery of the front portion and operable to securely retain the electronic device.
