That one is sold out. Try these:
http://mobile.brando.com/htc-desire-hd_c1378d039

I'd like to get a dock, but I'm weary about a case fitting in it... something tells me case+dock=fail.

Will any of these docks automatically place the phone in desk clock mode?

Here is the dock I use.
http://www.bracketron.com/products/universal-usb-power-dock
Very well made and pretty durable. I use this in a semi truck and have had no problems with it. Instead of ordering from the site though, just stop by a flying j or pilot truck stop, if you have one near you. They sell this dock for 24.95.

Using the CM barely there case for the DHD, really barely there, probably the slimmest case. Might wanna check it out if other cases dont fit on dock

hmm, didn't see any nice phone docks there, some very odd looking ones on that brando.com website.
Any nice phone docks that I can sit my phone in while at work ?
Even if it's not a perfect fit, something I can easily adapt with a dremel, and good intentions
I know there's a million iphone "media" docks, something similar is what I am looking for.
Also cheap would be good.

Is there a dock that will allow docking with a case on the Inspire?

thanks MarkPharaoh, exactly what I was looking for.

Has anyone got one of these? Looks interesting... but since the picture is a computer generated image I am unsure if it is going to be as nice as it looks

Mine's in the mail (free shipment from HK = not the fastest). If this thread is still active when I get it I'll make a post.

Well, I just got one, and it looks and feels just as good as it does in the picture. Comes with a decent cable+adapter and the phone fits nicely. However, I am assuming because of how it's built and covers the battery cover I lose all signal within a minute of putting it into the charger...very disappointing.

Does the Inspire know that it is docked when you put it in the dock? Does the clock app start?

It knows that you're docked, but it doesn't automatically open the Desk Clock application. I'll try to remember to post some pics tomorrow. It looks good, but is a finger print magnet.

Car Mount Holder Cradle Kit For HTC Desire HD

I bought one of these recently and received it 2 days later .. excellent mount, fits the HTC Inspire 4G perfectly .. $7.98 + free shipping and USA Seller (NJ)
http://cgi.ebay.com/Car-Mount-Holde...277665?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item41581ea561

Thanks,
I just bought one.

I would also like to say thanks for the link

I have the same thing but with a vent mount on it. I love it.

Thanks for the link!

Nice!! Thanks. Going on my list.

Judging by the pics, it LOOKS like it will turn for a horizontal view...does it?

Hey... good lookin' out! Thanks for the link!

Also, what if I have a case on my phone? Will it fit in this cradle?

Second on the case question...

It won't fit with any case. It holds just the phone, nicely though.

No case will fit .. there is however a fella on eBay that sells custom made holders for the Desire HD/Inspire 4G with either the Otterbox Defender or Commuter Cases .. only problem, you're going to pay $30 for that holder.
Here is the link for those holders:

Thx for the link. Just ordered mine. Can't wait for it to arrive!

I got something similar from china for $5. It works fine and like this one no case on the phone.
I wanted the original one from HTC but it's almost $50.

Same seller has an adjustable holder. It necessarily looks a little more clunky than the one tailored to the Desire HD/Inspire.
For seven dollars, I think I'll give it a shot.
I would post a link, but I need to go post some more first!
Hit the original link and browse the vendor's store and you should see it.

It arrived and it works. Should fit pretty much any case or phone. Rotates through three hundred and sixty degrees and I can still plug in a power and audio cable. The holding mechanism works quite well. There are two hard "prongs" holding the bottom of the phone in place, and two ratcheting grips on either side that are pushed closed. They have rubber padding. I was concerned they would hold down the volume control but it isn't an issue.

That's pretty cool looking.

Horizontal case for naked G2X?

Is there any horizontal case made specifically for the G2X? I ordered 2 different cases so from from Amazon and they're both too big, you can fit two G2X's in there.

I got Case Logic one from Walmart that fits perfect with no extra space

Oooh nice, do you have the model number or some pictures? What is it made out of?

Is it this one

After going to two different Walmart, this was the only one I could find.
it fits good, if it was a little slimmer it would be perfect.

Be sure to check behind all the other cases. On all of the pegs, there were at least 2 different types.

Here are the two cases I ordered from Amazon:

http://www.amazon.com/Premium-Execu...B8/ref=sr_1_27?ie=UTF8&qid=1304884118&sr=8-27
They both fit horrible, they weren't made for the G2X. You could fit two in there and still have space!

This is the one I have. Phone fits perfectly, no model number but it looks almost identical to the picture someone posted above. Maybe mine was just made a little slimmer?

Careful with magnetic cases. The magnet can cause the phone to do some quirky things. Throwing off the GPS I know is one example.

very nice case. looks good. my only criticism is that the headphone jack isn't available when the phone is in the case

I posted a mini-review of such a case in http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1050581. After using it for a couple of weeks, I'm still happy with it. It is exactly the right size for the phone -- neither too tight nor too loose. The only issue with it is that it has a magnetic closure, which puts the phone into car dock mode occasionally. I've used Spider Launcher to mitigate the effects by having it launch Launcher instead of Car Home when the car dock is detected.

[Q] HTC Sensation Twill Design Gel Skin Cases

http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/search/r...ywords=sensation+twill&ie=UTF8&qid=1310038436
Has anyone seen these cases or tried them out? I think they look awesome and they have all the correct cutouts.
I've ordered one but with my location, it's gonna take a few weeks to arrive.
Anyone else with feedback on these cases?

Is that TPU material? Cause if it I'm ordering one asap cause those look real nice.

I really wish I knew. The description just says "GEL" and nothing else.
Been searching for hours to try and find any manufacturer info but no luck

This is the best bit of information I could find - this case is for the Desire HD but it's made by Qubits and I should assume they'd be similar:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LQOaEx58mZM

Wow that looks real nice. Dammit, I guess I'll be getting a third case.

U.S??
Is there no US shipping??

I need to stop hanging out in the accessories section ....

So has anyone tried one of these by now?

I'm still waiting for mine to arrive. Customs in South Africa is a looooong process. It should arrive around the 3rd of August. Will post back as soon as I get it

Found the Qubits Black version on Amazon.com from the same seller it seems. Ordered with a free $5 code I had, Should be here by Weds.

I didn't put no code and paid same price just 4$ more for shipping for overnight shipping

Yay my case has arrived!
Perfect fit, all the cut-outs line up 100%
I've never had a TPU case before but I think that's what this is - it's a bit firm but still flexible with a slight rubbery feel.
It does add a wee bit of bulk but I feel much safer holding the phone with the case on.
I'm at work now but will take some photo's this evening.

Yeah button access is good. They're not cut out so you do have to press a wee bit harder. But they did put some ridges on the inside of the cover so it's not a mission - I'm a relatively small built female and I don't have any trouble

here some pics .......
edit: the case effects wi-fi, when i use the phone with no case 25-30 feet away from the router i usually get 1 to 2 bars of wifi no problem with the case i get no wi-fi that far off...

Sorry for taking so long to upload these... But here are the photo's as promised
Pity about the wifi eddie3six, mine seems fine. But it seems there's a few different builds of the Sensation.
Your case is awesome!

Great skins for a great price.

Seems like it might look nice with the LG bumper. Might have to give it a try.

Carbon one looks cool. Anyone tried yet?

A few people on reddit bought it and they said it has been great so far in terms of fitment. One had the carbon one and the other I believe had titanium or leather.

Really liking the look of the titanium one, might order one later this week. If anyone beats me to it, please post pictures!

Covering the back? NO-GO!

So are these protective skins, or just decorative stickers?

Im leaning towards titanium silver and black leather. I just wish it were legit leather

That's exactly why I bought one..tired of having to find a rough cloth to put the phone on so it doesn't slide all over the place. Purchased a carbon fiber one, hoping I get it next week.

I love it! lol, nexus doesn't slide every where now and it makes the phone look pretty awesome, can't speak for the leather looking ones but the carbon fiber one looks amazing. I'll take pics with my friends phone later.
I definitely recommend this if you don't mind covering up the glass back, I prefer it this way TBH, the effect is cool, but not cool engh I'd keep this sort of protection off.

Just received my titanium skin, it looks fantastic. Haven't applied it yet (I'm at work; haven't even taken it out of its vinyl pouch), but here's a quick picture so you can get an idea of the texture. I scratched at it a bit, it feels a lot harder than you'd expect.

Finally applied it, took maybe five minutes. The fit is perfect and it feels very nice. Photos don't really do it justice.

That's looks nice.can't wait to get my carbon fiber one.how long did it take for shipping?

wow looks very nice!

I'm only a four-hour drive away, so not counting the weekend, it took a couple of days. Probably going to order a couple more now that I know what I'm dealing with (ridiculous precision, easy application, amazing results).
