Any luck finding accessories?

Besides generic items that will fit any phone, anyone find items such as a cradle or case?

+1 on the charging stand. It makes sense because how long will the little rubber o-ring on the charging port last if you open it every day? Probably won't be very water resistant very long...

First case I have found for it.

+2 on the charging cradle; who knows how long the tether for the micro-USB port cover will last. I also wonder how long that O-ring on the port cover will last. When that dries up and falls off, there goes the "waterproof".

Since I travel frequently, I also bought the iGo Charge Anywhere. It's capable of charging two USB devices simultaneously.

Both items available at Verizon's site.
 
Hi there, I'm new to the forum. I tried out the Body Glove Commando case. Could not stand it. So, I looked around and found this one at a cell phone accessories stand at the mall. I am most positive that ya'll have one too.

Amazon.com: Skinomi TechSkin - Dark Wood Film Shield & Screen Protector for Verizon Casio G'Zone Commando: Cell Phones & Accessories

it's a like a 3m skin , but it looks like wood! i'm a carpenter by trade, yet all i seem to do is drywall lately. i do make stuff out of exotic wood, ( purple heart, ebony, rose wood, snake wood ect. ect.) so i just love the fact i can make my commando look like a woody!

i found all my stuff on amazon.com then went to manufacturers website and found more stuff. then google helps too. i'm waiting untill verizon get in more cradles, to get one as well. i really hate opening my charge port every day.

Not sure what's going on but I just logged in and checked again and see it for $22.49 and "in stock". You might try the "check device compatibility button" It seems to update stuff. Worked for me when it said out of stock, was actually in stock after clicking that.
EDIT: FWIW, I just clicked your link and it's not the same page I see. The charger dock pic is the same, but the printed info is missing on my page. Different pages???

I tried to buy a cradle at the VZW retailer near me and they said they no longer make them. That's not very smart IMO since the preservation of the water tight charger port is the main reason a Commando owner would buy one. The only place I've seen that has 'em is Amazon.

Ditto on the cradle. I ordered two a couple weeks ago when they finally had them in stock online from verizon. Also, I went the route of ordering the Skinomi Techskin but went with the Carbon Fiber skin + screen protector. This allows it to still be used with the charging cradle. As for a case, I found a smartphone case cheap at "Five Below" and removed the magnets and used a 1x1 piece of velcro attached with Loctite glue. I didn't want the magnets to possibly mess the GPS up on the phone.

While on a trip to PA, I saw a Verizon store and decided to check it out. They had one cradle. Got if for the website listed price and love it. :D

If you see a store, check it out. They may have it!
 
... been checking Verizon.com everyday.

Yesterday they had the cradles in stock. $29.something plus state and local tax. I ordered one and it's due by Friday.
