Just curious what everyone is thinking, what Accessory or Accessories are you buying? and Why? What do you see yourself doing with the different accessory options?

I voted 'Lapdock and HD Dock' but I'm also going to be getting the standard dock for my nightstand as well as possibly another standard dock for my desk at work.

Lapdock - For general use including when i'm on-call so I can use my published Desktop via the citrix receiver to handle my VPN, etc...

HD Dock - For use on my 60" Plasma in my basement for if/when I decide to fire up netflix on it or (if this will work) play my NES / SNES games that i've got all the ROMS for on my TV.

Standard Dock - Nightstand for being a clock/alarm/etc..

Standard Dock - for my desk at work so i can charge it and feed my speakers for streaming pandora all day now that my company blocked Pandora :)

You didn't include the car dock. That's what I'll get. When I had my OG DROID and DROID X I bought the base docks for them but didn't even use them much because it was a hassle to put the phone in and to get it out. I actually went crazy with the DROID X and bought pretty much all the accessories for it but only wound up using the car dock a few times and the home dock once or twice and the rest never not even the hdmi cable. So this time around I will take it easy with the accessories, although I was planning on getting the LapDock until I heard that it was going to be $299. **** for $299 I could by a real laptop or a netbook for even less.

I hope its not $299, but it probably will be. I have a two year old XPS M1530 that was, at the time, worth $3200 (every option i could get, I did) that I still love (using it right now) but I prefer not to toss it in my trunk or whatever when i'm on-call. For the reasons stated in my previous post, I love the idea of having a 'laptop' that I dont have to care about getting stolen. It contains no data, has zero moving parts so it'll be 'tougher' and with my super-geek coming out, I've got Citrix and other options available to me so I can run a full windows OS (remotely via Citrix) on it with little to no lag at all due to the 4G LTE.

Everyone has their reasons for buying or avoiding accessories ( i haven't bought a single one for my OG Droid) but this time around with the capabilities of the Bionic, i'm going on a spending spree. :)
 
If I pull the trigger on the Bionic, I'll get the webtop adapter and the extended battery. That battery is nearly 2/3rds bigger than the standard. Very nice.
 
I'm interested in a car dock and car charger. It would be nice if the car dock also charged the phone, but we'll see. God I just want this effing phone already.
