I use the RAM X-Mount; it's universal and fits 'em all.
Next phone - no problem. Even grips 5" smartphones.
Handy for those of us who change phones every year or two...

Thanks for the feedback so far.

My concerns with the claw is only the possable vibrations i may hear from metal to metal contact. My son-in-law has the claw and loves it but had to add thin felt to stop the vibes.

My concerns with the leader are only the asthetics. I don't think it will look as nice from the back or sides as the claw. Not sure because I haven't found any pictures.

I don't want cheap plastic (arkon) or giant erector set (ram) mounts.

I used this, works great

Also replaced the key lock with a pushbutton so I didn't have to loosen it up and tilt it every time I filled up.

Hubby and I both have Leader mounts - his for an ipod and mine can hold anything if it has the belt clip (this does vibrate, but haven't had any issues with the electronics - phone or Walkman). We both love the mounts and think they are of high quality.

This is pricey but its what I have on my Roadie. Good thing about it is that it charges and plays through the radio at the same time. I get compliments on it everywhere I go. Best looking one if you ask me. Price is a little high, but it was well worth it to me.
