    Hey guys

    I pre-ordered the Droid Incredible (EXCITED!) but before I get it I want to get some accessories for it. I have a cassette adapter for my iPhone so I can just plug that into the Droid with no problem.

    Now I had a question about the Belkin car charger I have. It obviously charges the iPhone but I'm able to connect another USB to it. Now the charger states 5V @ 500mA. I know that the phone comes with an AC charger and the USB cable, but can I use the USB that comes with the phone with this Belkin car charger? Without messing up the phone with too much power or anything like that?

    Look at picture for reference.

    Thanks in advance?

    Ahh not to confuse, I have the cassette adapter for the audio output, my car charger is one that plugs into the cigarette plug.

    Yes, it will be real slow, especially if you have 2 devices charging at once.

    Yeah! I agree that using Belkin USB also for my iPod really works great. I think you can get one car charger at cheap car part.com. I hope you'll be able to get one there.
