just got my charging pod

Ordered from Amazon. $9+ but shipping to Singapore's dear. Bought 3, 1 for office, 1 for my bedside and another to give a friend to make me feel it's worthwhile.

Still, for 3 pcs and shipping thrown in, it's abt the same price as in the shops here. :) Gee, I feel better already.

Whoever doesn't have one, I strongly recommend it! Now I can use my BB to my heart's content without worrying abt it running out of juice. And I can charge without worry abt when that female micro usb plug will get "loose". ;)

BB rocks.

Did you remember to order extra wall chargers too?

Haha. Good one. My days of lurking in here enlightened me these come without the wall chargers.

Yes, I thought of that. The one in the office uses my usb cable while the one at home the wall charger.

Gosh, I love CB forums.

Enjoy! They look pretty cool when in use.

I'm planning on getting one soon.

I got one since day 1 , its one of RIMs best invention !

I agree...the pod is awesome. I got two for around $5/ea..one for the office and one for the bedside table.
Plus I use Leave It On to keep my BerryWeather homescreen on while its sitting in the pod (I have a 9000 bold with a pod that I use as a clock/alarm).

I also just bought a charging pod but now I have a dilemma in my hands because I use a poly plastic case which requires me to remove it every time I want to use the pod. Its a pain to remove the case & even though the Bold is sexy as is, it needs protection. Anyhow, anyone have those silicone cases? I'm thinking about picking up one of those because they slip on & off much easier. How are you guys w/ cases using the pods?

I slip off my case and put my 9700 into the pod to charge. Not a problem for me.

You may want to look into cases that come with pods that are compatible with the cases.

I use a holster so I can just slip it out of that and on to the pod.
I mean I know protecting the berry is important and all..but the way I look at it is if I get a scratch or something I can't live with, ill just spend the few bucks to replace that part..
To me cases (silicone, etc) are more annoying then they're worth.

I love the way my BB goes into sleep mode at night when I stand it in the pod. The 'night clock' feature is just super!

Just got one, and its amazing no more trying to find the AC cable behind my bed to charge my BB, just drop it on the cradle\pod and done, with a very sleek design and wants me to charge it all day, and with the bedside mode Huge bonus! :). Now I need to get a new one for my computer desk

I am using the Otterbox Commuter case on my device and it is really easy to remove at night for charging in the pod. The case offers great protection too.

I agree. I have the OEM pod and the Seidio innocase and compatible dock.

Both awesome and must haves.

I'm buying one for college since the beds aren't usually directly next to the desks so I need something to prop it up at night.

Looking to order a couple this week...one for desk and one for bedroom.
