Kidigi Deluxe Desktop Cradle?

http://www.kidigi.com/product_lv2.php?pid=1184
Has anyone seen it on sale in the UK yet other than on ebay?

Looks nice. Especially when the additional battery is included.

I found an even nicer one! http://www.kidigi.com/product_lv2.php?pid=1183
Not to mention car holders - nice stuff! Unfortunately I cannot find any place to buy it from.. ???

I emailed them the other day about these, they said they'll be in the UK at the end of may at mobilefun.

Thanks for that, I will keep my eye on their site.

These look really nice, will keep an eye out for those coming on sale.

You can pre order from the site
Desire Deluxe Cradle

Man that is nice!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Nicest one so far!! I love it!!

do you think the other cradle for pre order is meant to be the elegant cradle? because the stock picture doesn't look much like the one on the kidigi website

I sent the same inquiry and they responded "end of may"

Even better then! I really want one, think they look really nice.

I really like the car mounts they have for the Desire. I just wonder if they will activate the car dock mode (as in the upcoming original car mount)

Where can I find this on eBay? Searching for deluxe cradle yields no results...

it's not available for sale yet

I had one of these for my last handset (HTC S740). Different fitting but basically the same.
I used it on my nightstand to charge my phone overnight and can say the following.
It feels a bit cheap but does the job 100%. I was always able to leave the house in the morning with a fully charged phone AND a fully charged battery.
The connections are a bit odd and looking at the Desire version, nothing has changed.
The cradle has TWO USB MINI (yes Mini not Micro like the Desire has) connections. This is not a big deal as the phone plugs into the cradle and not the cradles mains charger.
One connection takes the power in and the other connects to your computer for sync. I am guessing host USB is not enough to charge the phone and a 2nd battery.
And finally, there are plenty of these on eBay for less money and looking at the delivery dates, they will get to you even from Hong Kong sooner.

Hi, have you found one of these available in the UK yet?
This is the one I want now, looks smart
(removed link because I've been a lurker and not a poster)

These are now shipping from Mobilefun, got a text this morning telling me mine had shipped. I placed the order on the 9th May.................

Has anyone received this yet? Can anyone confirm if this will hold the the phone with the flexishield?
I really like the look of this but can't imagine taking off the flexishied everytime put it on the cradle

Car Dock question

I'm after a Nexus One car dock, the 100% genuine article.
Problem is I'm based in France so can't get one through Google and don't want to use Ebay.
I can't find anyone who stocks them so just wondering if anyone on here knows of a source.
Thanks in advance.

Wait for a bit. The Nexus One will hit stores soon, apparently, and I'm assuming the accessories will come with it, and, if not, I heard a rumor that the HTC website will be selling Nexus accessories too. I have the car dock, and the only thing I don't like about it is the built in speaker quality, other than that, it's brilliant. Well, and the fact that I have to take my case off in order to get it to fit, but I have to do that with my bedside charger dock as well.

Thanks for the advice. I guess I'll have to wait.
The 3.99 euro mount I got in the local supermarket does the job and it was the speakers that was the real seller for me so if they're not up to much waiting won't kill me.

I used this mob to get my nexus one and the car dock over to Australia.
Don't know if they ship to france, but they probably do. All you do is sign up(free) you get an address with them, ship the dock to the address and they will ship it to you, they don't seem to charge commission, i think they get a discount with DHL and charge you regular price. so it seems a pretty good deal.

I want the car dock but wonder if it will fit with a protector skin/film on?
HTH
(Whoop edited with live links finally )

Most likely it won't fit with a case. May be for a film. It looks like quite a tight fit.

great now if they just could tell us when it will actually hit the market

The dock I have been waiting for so patiently has no speakers!!!!!!! This is lame...
To compete with iphone we need a good dock with speakers! A dock is all I wanted for my first fathers day, and now I don't think I want it...
Disappointing this!

The lack of speakers isn't a big deal to me. I mean, the built in speaker is solid enough, and it looks to me like the dock would only cove half of the SGS, so you could plug in headphones or your own speakers.
My guess about the lack of speakers is that the horrible evil iPhone plug has contacts for headphones/speakers there. You could build one for the SGS, but you'd have to have a truly separate 3.5mm jack, and in horizontal orientation you'd have to be very careful sliding it in and out to avoid breaking it.
Also, this dock is very small, and so having anything on board would seem unlikely. I expect there will be some 3rd party docks coming soon enough to cover what you want.

Did you notice all the Galaxy Tab accessories there as well? Far more than for the S

I am feeling a little betrayed by Samsung. Why can't they just get their act together and release the promised accessories? It's been 3 months already.

The Extended Battery Case looks ugly, but sadly is of great interest to me...

Actually, Handtec is now also showing some accessories available as Pre-order. It includes the Desktop Dock, Car Dock, a Leather Pouch, Replacement Battery and even an Official Capacitive Stylus for the Galaxy S.
Here is a link to these accessories: http://www.handtec.co.uk/search.php?xSearch=galaxy+s&submit=search+for+products

It's a shame, that they don't get the accesoires in stock.
I'm from Germany and they announced the Home Dock 4 Weeks ago and still nothing.

It is getting ridiculous now, I doubt if the desk cradle will ever hit the market.
Anyone any updates about this?

they are available for i500 fascinate for 40 t o 50 dollars on samsung us website dont know about i9000

Sorry I thought everyone knew. The official desk and vehicle docks have been discontinued. My money has been returned due to this from Mobilefun. When I asked Samsung customer services about it they said Samsung don't make them but third party's do. I pointed them to the press release and they said they would contact head office in Korea. Not heard from them since.

One of my drinking buddies has just started working for Samsung over here in Ireland, I'll give him a week or two to get his feet under the table and give instructions on what bit of SAP to delve into to look up stock

And there are loads on e-bay com and other US suppliers - but they are all for the Vibrant - question - is it the same shape?

Can you post a link to some of these (edit: eBay ones) as I cannot find one. (vehicle mount that is)

Heads up: Cheap OEM (TMO-US) Accessories

So I wanted to find a cheap car upgrade kit that was OEM but there didn't seem to be anything outside of $60 even on eBay. Then I stumbled on http://www.all4cellular.com/catalogsearch/result/?q=htc+sensation&cat=&x=0&y=0 after some random Google searching. Looked sorta shady at first but I placed an order for the OEM CUK and lo and behold, a couple days later, I got a genuine kit with an HTC box (with the $60 price tag!) for under 20 bucks. I noticed they have the OEM dock for cheap, as well as some other OEM related goodies.
Not sure if they ship internationally for you fine folks across the border/water. I can post pics when I get home from the library tonight if you guys want. Also, I checked seller ratings and the site seems reliable enough. I just wish this kit could be reassigned to open up a different app than HTC Nav
Sorry if this is a repost, I tried searching. If not, enjoy!

Unfortunately shipping to The Netherlands costs around 30 euros :'(

It sure can.
1) Remove the Htc Laputa and Location related apk's from /system/app (but do not delete the HtcLocationService!)
2) Remove the DockMode.apk, and replace it with a DockMode.apk from a T-MO RUU (or T-MO based rom)
3) Install the HtcCarPanel.apk
Done. Now when you dock, it will launch the lovely HTC Car Dock.
I know details are sketchy, but I can put up the necessary files if need be tomorrow.

Tried this but I maybe I didn't have the right files. HCP.apk wouldn't open after it was installed. Do I have to delete Laputa and Location or can I just freeze them?

Whoohoo - finally was able to afford the HTC car dock. Hopefully it comes, like the OP said, the reviews for the site are good, I also used paypal to check out so they didn't get my CC info.
Also use this coupon code for 5% off: a4c6a7

I wanted to update, I ordered the HTC car dock from these guys and received an incorrect item (they sent me a bluetooth headset, worth more on their site). I thought "oh great, I just got scammed."
I emailed them and the quickly responded with a new tracking number and paid return shipping for the bluetooth headset.
Anyway, if anyone is worried about ordering from these guys I can say, in my case, that they were very responsive. It sucks they had the mix up, but they did what they could to make it right (they even cross shipped, newegg doesn't even do that!).
And the OEM car dock is just what I was looking for. It's still not worth $60, but for $20 it's a steal.

Sweet find, just ordered to micro usb cables. Just to see if their good. All goes good I'm ordering that evo3d battery from there! lol 10% coupon btw.

Thanks for this dude, only wish they had the white battery cover for the sensation for $25 plus the 10% coupon? I would have brought it in a heartbeat.

Thank you! Just bought the dock!!

Thank you, just ordered a desktop dock...

I just got my order (The original usb cable) and they are legit and brand new. One thing though, they sent me a pair of head phones also which i didnt order or pay for weird. Oh well time to return them

Ordered a desk and car dock....

Shipping to Canada is like $22 dollars. Kinda kills the deal.

I ordered from them and just got my order.. ordered desk dock and car dock all good/legit for the price I'm happy with it...

ordered mine on the 22nd and received on the 27th (because of the postal holiday)

Ordered the car dock.. I have been wanting one of these ever since I got the S4G in June. $19.05 total after discount.
I hope it is robust as the car dock that I used with N1.

Desktop Dock and Car Dock

Hello Guys i found this 2 items on ebay.
They say is original HTC, so wanted to see if you guys think that the price is possible and your opnion of this been real or not.
Cant post links yet but here they are..
"w w w.ebay.com/itm/270996377935?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649"
"w w w.ebay.com/itm/270994736033?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649"
The reason i ask is because of the price.

Looks pretty legit to me. 45199 positive feedback. The box with the car mounted one looks to be official HTC. Either way, I just bought both of them so I'll let you know how it turns out.

Well there is only a MHL port that is used for charging guess i can connect it to the dock and see.

Not sure about the HDMI but I can confirm these are very solid pieces of equipment and very much worth the $10.

True, havent tested hdmi on these, but i can say that this are official original and i just saved maybe about 80-100 bucks.
Now installing my second desktop top to put on my office. Got a new back cover replaced battery and wont be replacing this phone for some time now. Specially now that has 4.1.2.

Can you let me know if the Desktop Dock provides enough clearance for a slim TPU Silicone case to remain on the phone while you charge it? Thanks!

Ordered both. Hoping that it will work with hdmi. Really excited for the car dock and hoping that it leaves the camera free.
