Thunderbolt Multimedia Charging Dock

Before the Thunderbolt was released, a multimedia charging dock was described which would hold the Thunderbolt in landscape at a slight angle and would charge both the Thunderbolt and a spare battery.

I wanted one but it's vanished from the Verizon site! Does anyone have any idea if it will ever reappear or did HTC/Verizon kill it?

Any information would be greatly appreicated as I'd very much like to purchase one as well.

Yeah I would like to know this as well. Seems like it would be a cool item to have

I'm ready to buy 2 of these if they ever get released: one for home and one for work!

The HTC charging dock isn't released yet. The part ID is htc6400dtc. You can find it on the Verizon site, but it shows "out of stock". There are non-OEM versions available at other sites, but I don't know if they will accommodate the extended battery while it's attached to the phone.

Here are the sites:

and

http://www.neweggmall.com/Product/2018039860/product.html?cm_mmc=PCE-GoogleSearch-_--_-Electronics-_-2018039860

If anyone buys one, please write back with info on if it will charge the extended battery in the phone or if it has to be removed and charged in the secondary slot.

I emailed Newegg and Techiewarehouse asking if those desktop chargers can charge the phone w/extended batteries installed. I'll update the thread once I hear back from them.

Here's the response I got from Techiwarehouse.com regarding their desktop multimedia charging dock.

"The Thunderbolt Desktop Charger cannot accommodate the phone with the extended battery installed. However, it is capable of charging the extended battery in the spare battery slot."

So I guess we're going to have to wait until Verizon releases their version in order to charge our phones with the extended batteries.
