Dear Seidio... (LTE Nexus Car Dock = Golden Opportunity)

Dear Seidio,

Since Verizon has screwed the pooch, you guys have a golden opportunity to capitalize on their disdain for their own customers.

We desperately need a true 3-pin car dock, and we know if there's any company who can deliver, it's you guys.

I know you guys read the forums. Please come through for us. I will pre-order the second you have one available (and I'm sure 1000's of other Nexus owners will as well).

For reference - Proper Cardock for GSM Version of Galaxy NexusPictured [AKA, WTF Verizon?]

With great hope,

Gunner

P.S. I'm soooo tired of driving w/ my Nexus on my lap.
 
Sign me up as well.

I had a Blackberry Tour with a Seidio case and desktop dock that I loved.

I bought a Seidio case for my Droid Incredible hoping they would make a desktop dock for it but they changed their minds about the dock.

I'm definitely a big fan of their cases, clips and docks. We have 3 Incredibles and an Incredible 2 with Seidio cases.

I haven't bought one yet for my Nexus but I would definitely be there if they came out with a desktop dock as well as a car dock that utilized the pin connectors.

Now, I don't put much stock into this rumor, but one of our members here stated that there are no accessories that use the 3 pin contacts for the Verizon version, because they don't work on the Verizon version. Internally, they are not connected to anything. He supposedly talked with someone in Samsung to get this info.

Again, while this doesn't make much sense to me why Samsung/Google/Verizon would do such a thing for the LTE model.

The VZW hard case has the pin area cut out to be used for something!:thinking:

When I go back to work Monday, I will test the pin connections and see what I find.

This has already been debunked, that guy was just trying to start something. Someone else tried putting power to it and the phone charged.
