No love for 9900/30 accessories

[saqer]

I've had the phone since it's come out and have been waiting for some respectable multifunction cases, fuel cases, extended batteries, car docs, and NADA.

So you make a phone that has inductive charging capabilities and just make a desktop cradle? Why not a minimalistic car dock that will charge and hold bb for you? Is there such a thing and I'm just going on a rant for no reason?

Any legitimate extended batteries or fuel cases for this thing yet? I use the heck out of my phone and am constantly charging it. If I'm running around with a smartphone and using it for email, extreme BBM, music streaming over bluetooth, GPS workouts, and phone calls, sometimes all the same time...am I expected to be carrying extra batteries around?

Anyone use their phone like me and have a good setup for their phone they would like to share? I would be glad to hear it. At this rate I would go iphone just for the sheer availability of accessories that are available for it, though, i still love and a loyal BB OS user.

I've got nuthn. I tried the dock and sent it back within minutes. I don't have a case or a skin. All I have is my leather Reiko holster that I used for my Blackberry 9700. I charge with a USB cable either plugged into my wall cube or my computer.

I really wanted a nice dock for my desk at the office, but no one has made anything worth buying. Maybe I should design one. Hmmm.

Let me google that for you

OEM manufacturers do not make the bulk of accessories for any product. 3rd-party companies fill that role, so get mad at them. Google more, whine less.

The 9900 isn't capable of induction charging by itself, btw. Where'd that come from?

My setup:

• 9900
• Otterbox Commuter
• OEM 9900 holster
• Jabra Cruiser 2 Bluetooth car speaker/FM transmitter
• PlayBook 64 GB (naked at home, cased up on the road)
• OEM Convertible case

In my backpack, which goes to work and on any trips:

• BB Cube charger
• PlayBook USB charger (for rapid-charging my BB if needed)
• PlayBook rapid charger, and sometimes the dock

My BB and PB are bridged all day, and I can usually make it 12-14 hours on a charge without charging during the day. I do, however, plug my BB into my car charger when I need to, especially when piping music to my car stereo via the Cruiser 2, and/or using Google Maps. I have a 40-minute each way commute. I make sure to keep a charger of some sort handy, just in case I decide to play a lot of Xploding Boxes or Angry Birds, or Dead Space, or if I get a few BBM group rejoins, or anything else that might take a chunk out of my charge.


Not sure what kind of fancy stuff you're looking for, but there's plenty out there that will meet your needs.

Found a car cradle that charges it without having to plug in the charger to it
