Hello,
Today, I purchased a Wireless Mouse that completes all the necessary accessories for Webdock. Between the HD Dock, Bluetooth Keyboard, and USB Wireless Mouse, I have spent around $110. It would have been $150 had Retention not given me a $40 Credit due to Sprint selling the Keyboard for $69.99 whereas Motorola sells it for $39.99.
So far, my favorite thing is to be able to watch Hulu on my 60 Inch Panel and being able to integrate into by Martin Logan Electrostatic Based 5.2 Home Theater. Very cool feature on top of what is already an excellent phone.
Cheers,
JJ
Yeah, I've always thought the best thing about the photon is the flexibility of The accessories offer!!

Hello,
I really think it is worth it just to have Hulu running into my HT. While the HD Dock is kinda pricey, the Keyboard is $39 from Motorola and I am sure you could also use a Wireless USB Keyboard instead. I picked up a HP USB Wireless Mouse for $9.99 that is normally $29.99 from Best Buy.
Thanks to all of the various Credits I got from Sprint due to the ridiculous number of HTC EVO 3D's that were Exchanged to repurchase an Otterbox Defender, etc... It ended up costing something like $20 after including the $10 Mouse.
Cheers,
JJ

He's definitely not hosing anyone. Shipping internationally is just expensive, especially for small companies.
I was ordering a dock + cable + (something else, I think) and was pleasantly supprized to find lower prices.
I ordered a dock the day before everything went on sale.....
but it did get here very quickly....

His dock cost more than amazon.

If you can wait for a week or two, you can get it for $42.75 shipped (they use EMS from HK post with tracking as well).

The docks is so worth it.
I've been playing around with it and have got a lot of great results.
Right now I use it at work (using wired connection) to stream Pandora, while constantly updating my personal email account and calendar. I put the Live Aquarium wallpaper on for aesthetic purposes.
Using Zyhong's latest 3.3 ROM, I have a full keyboard and mouse hooked to the tablet.
Essentially, this is now a full computer because of the dock.
Before this my gtab had started collecting dust.
Sales Gone... I missed..
I stopped at a Best Buy to grab a Scribe Pen before the holiday rush and found out that the price went back up to $79.99 (previously on sale for $39.99) On the website it shows out of stock and at the increased price as well. I talked with the rep that worked at the Best Buy Mobile store and he said they might decrease the price next weekend for Black Friday.
I tried ordering one from Amazon in bulk packaging (there were only 2 left when I ordered) but now it's showing out of stock. Hopefully I got it in time.
Anyone know where to find a good deal on a Scribe Stylus in case if my order was too late?
There is a seller on Ebay that sell OEM HTC stylus for $29.95.

Yeah I checked out eBay and saw that one. It's definitely an option. I had a $5 credit for Amazon and should be getting a $10 credit for Best Buy soon so I was looking to get the Scribe from them. I just want to make sure I'm not getting a cheap knock off that doesn't work properly.
I saw the black scribe pen, from the jetstream, on Amazon for 29.99...

I purchased the black OEM one from eBay, and it works just fine. Both of the buttons work and frankly I think the black looks better.
That being said, I have never used the silver one. Another thing to note is that the one from eBay doesn't come with a battery. I'm not sure if the BB one does, but I had to go to Radioshack (my BB didn't carry the batteries) and it cost me about 8 dollars for a pack of two.
Ugh, I can't find my stylus. Going crazy looking for it, but I think I'm going to have to buy another one soon. Thanks for the tips on where to possible find cheaper ones.
Noticed that the price was back up when I stopped by Best Buy last night to pick up some Bluetooth headphones. I was going to pick up a stylus also, but decided against it at that price.
Are they nuts at Best Buy (for raising the price just before Black Friday), or could it be a pre-cursor to discounts on the Flyer price which they want to recoup through accessories (whici is SOP for Best Buy - they will try to saddle you with a "high quality HDMI" cable for your new TV for $59-99 when you can get the same quality from a $10 Amazon cable)? Here's hoping for a few more Flyers in the $200 range!!!!!
So very hard to find these buggers in Canada
Price has since gone up... thread closed...

I have no relationship with the seller and can't even buy one myself because I'm not in the US...
Whoa thats way over priced just kidden, jeedh makes ya wonder how a place like bestbuy can get away with selling a cheaper version of the same cable but for 30 to 50 bucks! Makes me absolutely sick. Great find thanks a lot. Now find us a tablet for 10 bucks

It is now... it's gone up 100% already... now it's $0.06!
Only problem with this deal...
The Transformer Prime uses a MICRO-HDMI cable. Not Mini-HDMI.
http://www.amazon.com/HDMI-Type-Mic...?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1336744391&sr=1-21
$0.19+$2.85(P&H) Six Foot Micro-HDMI to HDMI Cable
Still can go for this instead:
Micro HDMI 3 ft for $.01
or this
6.5 Ft micro HDMI fo $.01
The catch.... about $3.00 shipping and handling. Looks like there is a price war going on at Amazon with third party vendors, charging only a penny, but then upping the "shipping and handling". Most are from Hong Kong companies, but some ship from US if thats where you are located.
Summary of Micro-HDMI offers
I would personally rather spend $10 on this 10-Foot Micro-HDMI cable from Newegg.
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16882270039
This way I actually have someone that can be held responsible if the cable doesn't work.
If you are put off by the Amazon sellers you could go here...

I use a micro-hdmi cable that I bought from ebay for around $3 for my evo 4g that works great. There's no point in spending extra money when it's cable that either works or does not.
I always seem to forget about monoprice for some reason. Just got their 15 foot cable with ferrite choke for like $11 after s & h. That's only seventy cents a foot and from a respectable online website.
So I'm most likely buying the Otterbox Commuter case from HTCPedia because its a few bucks cheaper than Amazon ($30 compared to $35, also amazon after taxes would be even more expensive).
Though, all orders over $50 get free shipping on HTCpedia. So I'm wondering if I should splurge on an MHL>HDMI adapter, but if so, which?
http://shop.htcpedia.com/htc-mhl-adapter.html - this seems to be the official HTC version for $30
http://shop.htcpedia.com/mhl-to-hdmi-adapter.html - not sure if it's 3rd party, or if it works any differently than the HTC version. $20
Are these adapters different quality as other products are too, or is there a standard 5V - 1A output? What do you guys have/recommend.
Thank you!
-Mark
I already bought a 5 dollar one from amazon. Even if it breaks, I could still buy 2 more and have them be cheaper than the official one. I'm not recommending people to buy or to not buy the htc branded adapter. I'm just comparing this to all name brand stuff that doesn't offer anything more than the cheaper product.

Unless you're going to be playing movies/videos while away from your phone without needing to be able to remote control it, MHL sucks. I would recommend just not getting it.

I might be getting a HTC Amaze soon (and paying ~$150 on top of the hassle of selling it for a One S isn't worth it for me), and I'm considering getting the official desktop dock and car dock while they're still available...but is it worth it? Seems like getting them in-store is about the only place to get them (if the store has it period), as I only see like two eBay listings for just the car dock on the entire web. I get that they're not too extraordinary (desktop dock particularly), but I don't want to be with the Amaze a few months down the line and not being able to find either for a reasonable price.
i have not even seen the desktop dock anywhere i just got my amaze today from tmobile didnt see it in the store. On another note if you want to trade your s for my amaze let me know lol
I have both the car and desk dock personally. I have them in my store available for purchase, but i know not every T-Mobile store receives them
I wonder if someone who has the car dock would be willing to measure the diameter of the suction cup on it? I have a dash friction mount that I would love to attach the arm of the official dock to, but I don't want to buy it if the suction cup is larger than the surface on the friction mount I have.
Yes we have them in, I'm mad we don't get much amaze stuff but dock is cheap for 49.99

This is interesting. I had no clue there was a desktop dock for this phone. I've never seen it in store. I may have to pick it up and do a bit of modding to make a very useful car dock for GPS navigation as the one I have is a bit.....
I'm sitting on an extra OEM desktop dock that someone didn't end up paying for. Willing to sell for 30 including shipping to US or 40 to Canada. Send me a PM if interested.

Sorry to bring up an old thread, but you can find official HTC Amaze OEM car docks on ebay. Just search for HTC Amaze car dock. They're around 20 bucks.

Ebay... Car dock and desktop dock both for $39.

Received the items yesterday. It's the real deal. OEM Car and Desk dock... still with the T-Mobile price tags attached. The desk dock is listed at $49.99 ALONE!
Since I could never find the car dock, I went with a different solution. I already had the Trident Kraken AMS case so I was able to buy a part from Trident that uses the AMS feature to turn into a car dock. The part is only $15, so if you have a Trident Kraken case, pair it up with a car charger and you are ready to go!
There's no more docks left, oh well

If you're looking for the desktop dock, I ordered one last week, and there are three more available on ebay. $24.99 and free shipping.
So I finally got the car dock, the official one. It is amazing.

Might have to get both. Car dock is only $10.99. Desktop dock is $14.99

Thanks. I probably won't get one of either, but I wanted people to see where to find them.
- for the car holder, I have not been able to find a charger that will keep up with the battery drain of the Amaze when using data, GPS, and keeping the screen on. I use Google Maps navigation by connecting the BT and turning off the screen. Otherwise this would be a great setup.
- for the desktop, I keep my Amaze in a TPU case. Still I might consider it for home use at night...
Ah, what the heck, I went ahead and bought the car model - what a deal!!

I have TPU cases for my Amaze as well but I bought it not only for the dock but for the "official" HTC charger. I can use it without the dock and it charges fast.
