I haven't found any thread similar enough to my concerns so I'm asking here.
I'm planning to buy Axim x51v and Seidio G4850. Most probably G4850 will be installed in air vent (standard windshield pedestal seems to be to short for using in my car).
But winter is coming slowly and what worries me are Axim and Seidio's reactions on hot air coming from air vent. Did anyone face any problems with improper operation related to overheating in this condition.

Have you thought about using an adhesive mount like the pro-fit low-boy mount? I did this with my Toyota Sienna and am totally happy with the results. I didn't like either the vent mount or windshield mount. I also used the Seidio hardwire adaptor to permanently hard wire the mount to my car's fuse box so there are no stray wires anywhere on the dash. Actually since 98% of my driving is just around town, about 98% of my Axim use in the car is for playing MP3s through the car stereo and only about 2% for GPS. The mount works great for that too.
Here's some photos and a write-up of the results:
