Do you also remember that the 1st gen iPhone was $600 WITH subsidy? Maybe it's just me, but I prefer $200 hardware with optional accessories to $600 hardware with included accessories.]]>Oct 29th 2009 4:37PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/10/29/droid-phone-holder-and-multimedia-station-go-for-30-apiece/http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/29/droid-phone-holder-and-multimedia-station-go-for-30-apiece/That $600 price point was for suckers.

I remember buying mine for $300 a couple of months later, WITHOUT having to sign a contract, go home, unlock it and use it merrily with my T-Mobile SIM card.]]>Oct 29th 2009 4:41PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/10/29/droid-phone-holder-and-multimedia-station-go-for-30-apiece/http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/29/droid-phone-holder-and-multimedia-station-go-for-30-apiece/Oct 29th 2009 4:55PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/10/29/droid-phone-holder-and-multimedia-station-go-for-30-apiece/http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/29/droid-phone-holder-and-multimedia-station-go-for-30-apiece/Oct 29th 2009 7:11PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/10/29/droid-phone-holder-and-multimedia-station-go-for-30-apiece/http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/29/droid-phone-holder-and-multimedia-station-go-for-30-apiece/Oct 29th 2009 8:34PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/10/29/droid-phone-holder-and-multimedia-station-go-for-30-apiece/http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/29/droid-phone-holder-and-multimedia-station-go-for-30-apiece/Nov 12th 2009 8:42AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/10/29/droid-phone-holder-and-multimedia-station-go-for-30-apiece/http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/29/droid-phone-holder-and-multimedia-station-go-for-30-apiece/Oct 29th 2009 3:41PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/10/29/droid-phone-holder-and-multimedia-station-go-for-30-apiece/http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/29/droid-phone-holder-and-multimedia-station-go-for-30-apiece/Oct 29th 2009 3:47PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/10/29/droid-phone-holder-and-multimedia-station-go-for-30-apiece/http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/29/droid-phone-holder-and-multimedia-station-go-for-30-apiece/Oct 29th 2009 3:50PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/10/29/droid-phone-holder-and-multimedia-station-go-for-30-apiece/http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/29/droid-phone-holder-and-multimedia-station-go-for-30-apiece/Oct 29th 2009 5:44PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/10/29/droid-phone-holder-and-multimedia-station-go-for-30-apiece/http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/29/droid-phone-holder-and-multimedia-station-go-for-30-apiece/Oct 29th 2009 3:46PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/10/29/droid-phone-holder-and-multimedia-station-go-for-30-apiece/http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/29/droid-phone-holder-and-multimedia-station-go-for-30-apiece/

On a slightly related note...MS should just consolidate Media Player into Zune and prepackage it with their OSes. ]]>Oct 29th 2009 4:18PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/10/29/droid-phone-holder-and-multimedia-station-go-for-30-apiece/http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/29/droid-phone-holder-and-multimedia-station-go-for-30-apiece/Oct 29th 2009 3:53PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/10/29/droid-phone-holder-and-multimedia-station-go-for-30-apiece/http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/29/droid-phone-holder-and-multimedia-station-go-for-30-apiece/Oct 29th 2009 4:17PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/10/29/droid-phone-holder-and-multimedia-station-go-for-30-apiece/http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/29/droid-phone-holder-and-multimedia-station-go-for-30-apiece/
I would love the magnet auto-sensing clock app launching thing, but I'll survive without it.

Or that they charge $50 for a universal dock with a useless remote: http://store.apple.com/us/product/MB125G/C?fnode=MTY1NDA0OQ&mco=MTA4MjUwNjc

I'm not saying $30 for the Moto dock is cheap, but comparing it to Apple, it is cheap because you get two types of docks that allows extra functionalities.]]>Oct 29th 2009 3:56PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/10/29/droid-phone-holder-and-multimedia-station-go-for-30-apiece/http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/29/droid-phone-holder-and-multimedia-station-go-for-30-apiece/
i doubt i'll buy the car dock until it also recharges though. especially if your using it for turn by turn directions on a long trip.]]>Oct 29th 2009 3:59PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/10/29/droid-phone-holder-and-multimedia-station-go-for-30-apiece/http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/29/droid-phone-holder-and-multimedia-station-go-for-30-apiece/Oct 29th 2009 5:01PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/10/29/droid-phone-holder-and-multimedia-station-go-for-30-apiece/http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/29/droid-phone-holder-and-multimedia-station-go-for-30-apiece/Oct 29th 2009 7:18PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/10/29/droid-phone-holder-and-multimedia-station-go-for-30-apiece/http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/29/droid-phone-holder-and-multimedia-station-go-for-30-apiece/Oct 29th 2009 7:31PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/10/29/droid-phone-holder-and-multimedia-station-go-for-30-apiece/http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/29/droid-phone-holder-and-multimedia-station-go-for-30-apiece/Oct 29th 2009 4:00PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/10/29/droid-phone-holder-and-multimedia-station-go-for-30-apiece/http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/29/droid-phone-holder-and-multimedia-station-go-for-30-apiece/

It will be interesting to see what the 3rd party accessory market develops. Since there's nothing magic about the magnet placement, I could envision other providers making their own similar docks, but maybe they WOULD have a speaker out??? I can always hope.]]>Oct 29th 2009 4:07PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/10/29/droid-phone-holder-and-multimedia-station-go-for-30-apiece/http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/29/droid-phone-holder-and-multimedia-station-go-for-30-apiece/Oct 29th 2009 4:13PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/10/29/droid-phone-holder-and-multimedia-station-go-for-30-apiece/http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/29/droid-phone-holder-and-multimedia-station-go-for-30-apiece/Oct 29th 2009 4:24PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/10/29/droid-phone-holder-and-multimedia-station-go-for-30-apiece/http://www.engadget.com/2009/10/29/droid-phone-holder-and-multimedia-station-go-for-30-apiece/Oct 29th 2009 4:07PM
