Desktop Cradle

[bthomp21]

I am really tired of waiting for the desktop charger to be on order. I mean, how many months has it been and still nothing. Well I just seen the seido charger and has anyone else bought it yet. Do you like it? What is the difference between the seido and the HTC charger?

Thanks

Mine just actually walked through my office door via "the FedEx guy". It's built really solid and has removable sleeve that makes it fit the active/innocase cases. My active case suppose to arrive today as well (but at my house) so I won't be able to tell you have it fits yet. But it fits perfectly "naked".

My only complaint is that it doesn't go into car mode automatically when docked. It's not a big deal to me because it's rooted and I'm running BAMF which has a car mode icon (no idea if you can get this without rooting). I can also have BAMF allow landscape mode which would negate the need for car mode (just haven't figured out how yet...think it's an additional download).

But I'm looking at it now and it's pretty nice.

I've been waiting for the HTC cradle also. I think HTC is losing a lot of sales by not having it ready when the thunderbolt launched.

My Seido dock and Surface extended case arrived about an hour ago. You have to remove the plastic insert in the dock for phone to fit with its case on, but I found that the fit in the dock is a little bit loose, and the usb plug in the dock is a little bit high, so that my Bolt doesn't sit level in the dock. The loose fit does make docking and undocking my Bolt a two handed affair.

I suspect this dock will fit the bulkier Active case just right.

The Seido dock and Active extended case is a good compromise for me, since I need a dock that fits the extended battery, I want a case on my phone as much as possible, but need an easily removable case, because my car dock only fits my phone with extended battery naked.

I've noticed that the Seidio dock is sort of like the car dock from Verizon. It takes effort to remove it, but that may not be a bad thing. However, it's a bit loose but I don't think that's a problem.

So, assuming that the seidio cases are similar to bulk of other cases out there. Does that mean the micro usb is a little bigger and the back where the phone rests is also bigger?
