Buy these two items:

This is a car plug with a female USB port on it.
For only $1.00 each when QTY 50+ purchased - Car Charger (Cigarette Lighter) to USB Female Converter - Black | Car Charger Accessories

Then just get any USB male A to male 5-pin Micro cable here - I got the 6 foot one.
For only $1.06 each when QTY 50+ purchased - USB 2.0 A Male to Micro 5pin Male 28/28AWG Cable - 6ft | USB 2.0 Cable - Micro-B Type

Works perfectly for charging or powering it while in the nav dock. Total cost $2.44 before shipping.
 
I hear if you get the car dock from Best Buy it comes with a car charger. But if you only have the car dock then this is great! Even I'm contemplating getting these cuz they're so cheap!

edit: just checked. its cheaper to get these from vzw for $30 and the monoprice usb wires for under $3. Best buy car dock and charger is $40!!!
