Has anybody got the Kidigi dock with the battery charger slot in the back? I am wondering if the slot is wide enough to take the Anker battery I have just bought. Anybody tried it please?

I prefer the kidigi dock - it looks better and easier to use than other cheaper ones on the market.

Many thanks
 
I got an answer to this on the XDA site - it was "no the Kidigi does not fit the Anker battery" :(.

Anyway I did some more digging around and have found this one, which looks perfect for what I want. It has the same rounded sides that the Kidigi has, which I like, but the battery lies flat while charging rather than going in a slot,

Why take so many troubles to find a compatible charger? Don't they offer Anker chargers as well? I suppose there is a possibility.

Yes Anker have a deal where they sell batteries with a charger if you want. But I was after a Desk Dock for the Sensation that would also charge the Anker battery. One piece of kit rather than two.

I ended up buying one from obostore.com that did the job. Not the best build quality - I had to bend one of the contacts slightly before the battery would charge, but it works now.
