At one point, yes... but no more.

$60 for 50 cents worth of plastic and $1 worth of wire/metal.
Wow. Thanks HTC.

It has the bluetooths and can connect to your entertainment center...

The worst part is the crossed-out $99.99 next to the price, as if it was ever sold for that much.
There are laws against that kind of thing in some countries - that is, saying something is on sale when it isn't.

ok, a $3 bluetooth chip...The desktop dock should be $20, MAYBE $30. $60 is outrageous.

Overpriced Acc.
Like the Nexus One Car Dock. What kind of profit margin? I guess if there is a market. Remember the "Pet Rock"!

It should be whatever they can get. if it doesn't sell, they're charging too much and the price will drop. And materials aren't the only costs that go into developing the product

Desk Docks, good to go
I can part with my dock.
mint, used two times... or less. (i love my casemate)
still have the box and everything.
yours for $50 --i had to pay CA tax or, exchange for a car dock in good condition.
cheers

Buy it, if you dont like it send it back. Or sell it on eBay: here in Germany they sell for more than the HTC Shop pricing (57€ on htc shipping incl., ebay 60-70€)

You should start mass producing these puppies then, it's so cheap to do, right?

I doubt it even has a bluetooth chip in it since the phone already has one built in.

Aren't they for sale on the htc site? I remember seeing them a few weeks ago.they were back ordered till november

It has a Bluetooth chip.

I ordered mine on expansys, it only takes 3 business days to have it.

I got a dock on eBay second hand for 30gbp bit expensive but sooooo worth it there is no alternative to an OEM dock such a snug fit. As for the Bluetooth that's got to be a lie! No where in the unit is there a Bluetooth icon. Very strange

The phone connects by bluetooth to the dock for audio, which is why there's a 3.5mm jack on the back of the phone without a connection to the nexus's audio port.

htc store?
They factory HTC Nexus One desktop is $59.99 with free shipping.

Hmm, not for me.
California Tax ftw? Maybe it's cheaper elsewhere, YMMV. I'd prefer shopping at Amazon anyway, /shrug
yea that cali state tax sucks for you. But I love monoprice. All my cables are from them.

That says "shipping from" and it doesn't match anyways. 913XX vs 91730
For the extra pocket change I would just buy it from monoprice. Reputable quality and you'll get it pretty quick. Buying from the Amazon Marketplace is like buying from random power sellers on ebay.

Car Dock

I want the official car dock... simple right?
Problem is that I live in Canada, HTC won't ship it here or to a mailbox on their side of the border. They require a US credit card or whatever. Is there any way to get these from elsewhere?
Try the usual suspects...
My recommendation is that you try to get it used from either Amazon or Ebay, I don't think that you have any other options.
I don't have the original dock, as my car has integrated bluetooth, but I bought this car mount: Kensington Windshield /Vent Car Mount with Quick-Release Cradle for iPhone/iPod touch. Yes, I know what it says, but it works perfectly with the N1, especially if you have a case and don't want to take your phone out of it every time you get in your car.
As far as a car charger, you need to get this: Motorola Vehicle Power Adapter MicroUSB Rapid Rate Charger, there is no other charger that works better than this, and it is actually very cheap (US$ 5.49). It will actually charge your phone while using navigation, with GPS and bluetooth active, and full screen brightness, that's how good this charger is.
I actually modded the mount so it will hold the cable, I will try to post a picture later on.
I hope that this helps.
I really want the official dock as it has speakers and hookups for 3.5mm so I can listen to music from my phone.
ebay, I tried that. I don't want to pay $200 for a car dock. They are so over priced on there. Amazon.com doesn't ship most of their stuff to canada, however I did find it on there (thanks). I will try purchasing one of these and see what happens.
In the US does HTC have a store you can walk into to buy this dock? I find it doubtful but I'm going on vacation in the US next week, thinking maybe I could pick one up...
No store...
No, HTC doesn't have stores in the US at all. I know that a few months ago, some T-Mobile stores were carrying some of the N1 accessories, but I think that that is a very long shot. If you are coming here, I would recommend that you order it from HTC and have it express mailed to wherever you will be staying, that should solve your problem. Good luck.
Except for how they don't take Canadian credit cards...
You can have mine for $60 (the price I paid after tax) + shipping. Do you want the desktop dock too?
http://www.comgateway.com/CGW/com.comgateway.cgw.Home.do?4403cgtyxsd=VCcJgLeKfUPpJXO8/HboxjXm14w=
I used these guys to get my Nexus one to Australia. They are a mail forwarding company. they don't even charge you a commission over and above normal shipping afaik, they get a special deal with DHL and make money on the difference.
As for the credit card, mine worked when i put my normal address for the street, but put a US state as the state.

Got micro HDMI ???

I finally found a HDMI cable locally.
That way if it did not work, I could return it.
I got it at WAL-MART. I looked at my local WAL-MART they do not carry this item. I found it at a WAL-MART when I was out of town this weekend, When I was walking around the electronics area.
I saw all the people with mix results so I held off for a quality cable from a company I can trust and been making cables for a long time.
I got the:
BELKIN - HIGH SPEED HDMI CABLE WITH HDMI MICRO CONNECTOR.
6FT. OR 1.8M
$30.00
I just tested it out for 5 minutes last night. It worked great. I set the HDMI setting to automatic. As soon as I plug cable in it worked.
I was saying, Awesome!!!
Hopefully this helps people who need the cable and are scared of what cheap cables can do to expensive electronics.
Running stock Gingerbread Rom.

That's what I'm sayin'! They all work the same. I'm not gonna spend 10x the price on something that won't work any better. To me, 1080p, is 1080p.
i can guarantee the $3 ones wont last..probably from ebay..lol but thats where i got mine from, cost me bout 10 bucks about two months ago and still works, i use it all the time especially weekends, make sure to check buyers feedback and also u can notice a crappy cable by looking at it...just be carefull when pickin but it's best to get one from a local store or t-mobile website
I had some money coming my way that I was not counting on so I say what the heck!!!
I saw all the complaints if all those cheap cables. I did not want to be one of those people.
I was just posting a options some people don't mind spending more on a quality product.

I've used my $3 cable almost everyday since receiving it 2 weeks ago and I've had no problems at all.
The cable actually looks like good quality....I got it from Hand Held Items. I'm usually the first to say when something looks cheap, but this $3 cable looks the exact opposite. I'm still shocked that stores can make money selling a HDMI phone cable for $30. What a ripoff....smdh
But I'm not knocking anybody who purchased that $30 cable, by all means if you got the money and want to do it .... perfect!

I understand...Im not trying to sell anyone anything, I just wanted anyone that may be in the market for a cheap HDMI cable to know where I got mine from. I'll admit, some of the reviews aren't so great, but there are more 5 ratings than 1 ratings. I guess I have one of the 'Good' cables.
Nonetheless, good luck with any decision you guys make.
I got HDMI cable off ebay for me and my dad for $1 each lol, still working strong, but I cant say these $3 ones for our phones will be the same, I will be picking one up for mine soon.
I return mine. I am trying cheaper cables now that I know my phones HDMI port works. The Belkin one was a perfect fit.

Since I can't post links: Visit NewEgg then search the item: RCE-6-MHEF
6+ft mini-hdmi to hdmi male for less than $7.
Food for thought... seems none of you have heard of the future of internet shipping -- NewEgg... quality cable if you ask me, have 3+ of the normal hdmi and they sell adapters if you already have a hdmi cord, because how many times do you hook up your phone to a tv anyways?
Good link. I have to check that out.

Discount on Official Samsung Accessories

FYI for those of you just shopping around for something to buy for your new GS4. I registered my GS4 on Samsung's website ( http://www.samsung.com/us/support/register/product ) and by doing so, you get a coupon for 50% off any accessory under $50. To my knowledge, there's no mention of it anywhere on the registration page, but I just got an email.
Of all the things under $50, the one that caught my eye was another 2600mAH battery (listed at $39.99). While steep and you can get 3rd party batteries for cheaper, the 50% brings it to $20. Not too shabby. Other stuff under $50 are bluetooth earpieces, flip covers (not S-version), and a couple chargers and even the Galaxy Multimedia Dock.
Fine print shows that shipping is $3.95 unless your order is over $49.99, which then it's free.
EDIT: Oh, the so called "Galaxy S 4 Spare Battery Charging System" for $49.99 includes a 2600mAH battery, so that might be a better buy than the battery itself because the case acts as a holder/case you can charge at the same time. 50% off means you'd get the case for a $5 difference than the regular battery after discount.

I'm actually not sure since the link I posted was for the Samsung.com/US registration. I'm wondering if you might have to go to the Samsung website for your country.
Never hurts to register though "just in case".
Its too bad none of these accesories are ever in stock anyway. Same thing with the S3 as well. Everything was always on backorder
thk , just got my coupon. will it work on multi item under 50 or just one

I just noticed that. I think though, you have to move your cart to backorder. What this does is reserve one for you (and they email you) when they actually do get them in stock. I just reserved that extra charger/battery and supposedly they'll email me when they have it in stock.

Yes your correct. I'm curious if they'll charge you immediately, or give you the option to checkout when it comes available. I've been ding for the light blue protective case, but I believe BB will have it in stock within the next few days. Amazing already is out of stock. But I'm sure within time, things will be ready to go. Hopefully lol! I miss my spare battery. I love that on the S3

They don't charge you. There's no way for you to put your payment info. At least when I did it, it just sent me to a page saying my order was placed and when it arrives, i have an option to go to a special checkout page.
So I guess it's more of a "preorder" thing for 50% off.
