I've ordered a RAM X-Grip mount but then somebody in another thread mentioned a more rugged RAM mount so I've ended up getting that one.
Tested the thing on some pretty hectic corrugated dirt in Limpopo and the phone never moved. Only the top 2 "claws" are spring loaded, the side ones are adjustable with screws from the back so once it's setup for your phone it's not going anywhere.

Here is the shopping list:

RAM Handlebar Rail Mount with Stainless Steel U-Bolt Base
RAM-B-149U R880

RAM UNIVERSAL PDA HOLDER
RAM-HOL-PD3U R550

Elani @ GPS4Africa will be able to help further with mounting suggestions, etc.

BTW
I've got a Zumo but I do sometimes need traffic avoidance via Waze or Google Maps.
