    My Own Custom Triumph Desktop Cradle

    Since we don't have any real accessories for the Triumph yet, I decided to use the charging cradle from my old Blackberry Storm2 and it's not too bad. The only thing I had to do was put some sort of support behind the phone so I'm using a Post-It stack :D

    Copied this from another forum. I just removed that factory installed screen protector and WOW did it improve the screen response to touch! I noticed that sometimes a touch or a swipe wouldn't register but not anymore! Even the screen appears to have more contrast. If you take it off, you'll...
