Here's a couple of quick photos of it.

Is it nicely weighted or really light? I want one of these for my 8320 (unless someone trades their 8310 ;) ) but I want it to be heavy enough on the desk and nightstand. Plus, I figure I can buy that and the battery charger/wall charger at Crackberry.com and I will have a way to charge the phone and the extra battery. Perfect.

This charger is 1.8oz.

Its a shame they dont sell one for the 8830. :(

I've seen this charger and REALLY like it. But I use a Seidio Hard Case. One has to choose....hmmmm....

Hopefully Seidio will respond to this soon because they were suppose to have one made that you can use with the hard case on it. They said it was suppose to be done around 12/15.....so time will tell. With the 9000 series coming out why buy more...lol.

eBay Store - OEMCELL: RIM BLACKBERRY

Ok, I had a good experience with OEMCell on Ebay. Paid for the auction on late Friday night and it was in the mail Monday. Just arrived today, Wednesday, although per the tracking it would have arrived yesterday (Christmas) if mail was being delivered. Seller is about 50 miles away, so quick mail time for me.

Pretty solid feeling to this charger. The weight combined with the cord sticking out the back keeps it very stable. I have one of the clear full body protectors from Bodyguardz (like Invisible Shield) and its a little snug, but I don't have to push it in, it'll drop in just fine. The only thing it does it lift the stand off the desk maybe 1/8" when I pick the phone up fast. It's a very smooth interior and the protector is a little grabby.

The mirror coating looks so good, I don't want to take the protective plastic off it. Very happy for less than $30 including shipping and tax.

I'm happy with this charger as well. Simple and inexpensive. But let's just wait till my Seidio Crystal Hard Case arrives. I may have to rig the two to play nice together

That charging dock won't work with the Seidio hard case....

You're right and now I have to choose between the hard case or the charger.

[PPCMD]

How about a seidio charging dock that works with the hard case, that would be good.

Read the whole thread and it does talk about them coming out with one.

I just got mine from chinesecatt. It's really nice and balanced. Too bad it does not work with my Seido hard case.

[zabone]

i just ordered one.. hope its good, i hate waiting for packages :P

does mobility today give tracking numbers? if they do that would be great.

[fixxxer7]

I have one for my 8130 pearl. I can order them for you guys, I think I can get them for around 13 dollars each w/free shipping. PM if you guys want any.

Problem is that your charging contacts are on the side.

[hotburnttoast]

MrKyoo,

Where did you get that Firefox background on your Red Curve? Can you provide me a link to hit

[hotburnttoast]

Silly question on the charging pod, but does the blackberry logo light up at all?

[luckykelleyk]

yes, it does light up. Its actually pretty bright! It is lit up constantly when the charger is plugged into the dock, not just when the bb is sitting in the dock. (P.S. I love this dock!!!)

I bought the Seido desk charger for my 8300 and it works like a charm. I love it. Since I used the case, I can just drop my BB (with case) into the charger. It also comes with an docking adapter for use without the case (like most ipod dock adapters). Highly recommended.
