Motorola V3 cradle

j-man · 08-06-2005, 03:59 AM

Got a response from my dealer this morning that the V3 cradle is not available. Anyone heard differently or know when one will be avail?

I have a great cradle for my V3.....
My pocket!!!
I ALWAYS forget my phone in the car unless it is in my pocket.
I know it's not the best looking cradle if you want to show off the phone, but it works for me!

Hope you find what you are looking for j-man.

only reason I want the cradle is to boost the reception whilst on the move

There is no V3 cradle yet

What is the advantage of getting the cradle? Is it only good for charging the phone or a good way to keep the phone on your car.

I am getting the Black Moto Razr from Cingular sometime next week and rather preferer to keep it on my pocket instead

It helps because Bluetooth drains a lot of battery power in most phones

Also connects the phones to the fin antenna

Hmm than I might be interested when the Cradle for V3 comes out..Thanks

the bluetooth certainly does zap the battery life from the phone whilst in the car. I immediately noticed this.

Still, I just charge the phone up every night.

Yes. Bluetooth big battery drain. I just have a lighter adapter charger and usually plug the phone in for longer drives. Other times, it's the pocket. I wish there was a home cradle that was easy to pop the phone in for charging.
