Product Description

Product Description
Display, sync, and recharge your BlackBerry smartphone in the office or at home with the help of the BlackBerry desktop Charging Pod. Conveniently position your handheld for speakerphone calls, watching movies, or listening to music - while winding a charger behind the Charging Pod to re-power and/or a data cable to your handheld's USB port for syncing. The charger includes two LED 2-colour indicators - through the BlackBerry logo on the front of the Pod and on its interior. Ultimate convenience is complemented by the Charging Pod's chrome design, which skilfully emphasizes the accents on your BlackBerry smartphone.

3.0 out of 5 stars Decent Item with Caveats . . . . , February 19, 2009

By	KE8000 (Los Angeles, CA) - See all my reviews

A small warning. This is a good little charger but with two not-insignificant shortcomings: any case/shell must be removed before your Storm can be charged and . . . ! . . . the unit does not come with its own adapter/power cord. Granted, I should've realized the former before I even bought this. It's clear from the photo that any protective gear must be wrestled off before your phone and charger can make the two-backed monster of love. But the LATTER? I was shocked to realize that a new CHARGER would not come with its own adapter and power cord. I'd expected to use this as a second, independent charging station at my office (so that I could leave my regular adapter/power cord at home). No such luck. I still need to carry around my regular adapter/power cord because without it, there's no way to plug this in. Granted, this charger still looks nice, and the price is great, but on its own its usefulness is rather limited . . . .

5.0 out of 5 stars Cradle for the Storm, January 17, 2009

By	BricBerry "Mike" (Florida, USA) - See all my reviews

I'm an avid Amazon shopper. I knew what I wanted and that Amazon would have it at the price I could handle. I would recommend this cradle by BlackBerry for anyone who has the Storm 9500 or 9530. It's not only beautiful in appearance but the fact that you can view the phone as a desktop clock while it's sitting in the cradle charging is a great feature. You can always view your menu icons if the clock doesn't work for you. A must have for the Storm user.

5.0 out of 5 stars This works, June 12, 2009

By	Doug Robinson (Vancouver BC) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

The BB Storm changed the USB cord to a smaller size, meaning all of the legacy, and normal USB cords were useless. This charger is a great solution. It is easy to insert the BB into it, keeps the desk not cluttered. It even looks elegant.
