Maxx Docking Station

[Maddog121806]

Has anyone had any experiences with a docking station for the Maxx? I seen on the Verizon site where the Griffin Powerdock was already sold out. Any input or or pictures of you using one would be appreciated. Thank you.

i considered it but couldnt come up with an overpowering answer as to why i wouldnt just get a wireless charger.

I gave up and just made one out of wood. Mounted a nokia wireless charger on it and it works perfect!

jhlinka, that is hilarious. I am intrigued as to what this looks like.

I didn't even consider a dock with the Maxx. I see no reason to use the USB port when I can use wireless charging for about the same price as a dock.

It does look as if the dock is a far less desired option in comparison to a wireless charger, I guess I'm just old school like that.

They open in my browser... I'm new to this so maybe I'm doing something wrong, but I add the attachments via "insert image" in the quick reply...

I'm getting a lot of attachment issues lately on Tapatalk and it's not just your pictures.

It's kinda disappoint that the limited selection of docks, so far, haven't taken advantage of Qi charging. Wireless charging is the point of it all.. Take Care

We can't see them.

I had this same problem posting pics earlier tonight. Just edit the post. Delete the pics and reupload them. That worked for me.

Debating whether or not to get a second Qi charger for the brown dock. The maxx lasted me 36 hrs and was still at 20% this past weekend, so I'm thinking I won't need it!

Still having problems w/ the forum upload, so just check out these from Google+:

In case you're wondering, the electrical tape strip is a quick fix for that annoying bug where the capacitive buttons stay lit
