I have the same problem. My morning habit has now been relegated to the office because of the lack of a suitable cup holder. Which doesn't help me when I want to get behind the wheel of the car and drive for six to ten hours (friends live out of state and/or country so I do this on the weekend a lot). To me, a cup holder in the car is not so much a yuppie SUV thing as a convenience issue for any type of long haul or commute. If anyone has a solution that works for disposable cups, I am definitely interested. Kai.
