FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing the front and upper surface of the mounting apparatus.

FIG. 2 is a front view of the mounting apparatus.

FIG. 3 is a rear view of the mounting apparatus.

FIG. 4 is a side view of the mounting apparatus; opposing left and right side views of the device are the same; and,

FIG. 5 is a top view of the mounting apparatus.

Portions of FIGS. 1 to 5 are shown in dashed lines for illustrative purposes only and form no part of the claimed design. For example, the disk into which the mounting apparatus can be docked does not form part of the claimed design.

The design comprises a mounting apparatus, optionally an active vehicle mount, for supporting an electronic portable device. The device is preferably for use in providing travel and traffic information to a user. The mount is configured to be removably insertable into a disk that can be affixed to a vehicle dashboard.
