Despite the trouble just finding the "charging station" offered in the VZW stores, I found it even more perturbing when told that you could NOT leave your cover, jacket or skin on while charging as they did not allow for this..

This was the straw that broke THIS camels back! I've started manufacturing my own multimedia docks, and have begun selling them on eBay.

Named MIKRADLE, it's an heirloom quality, furniture finish stand designed specifically for the Droid, and enables you to use your cable to charge the phone, hook it up to a computer or your powered stereo speakers, all WITHOUT removing your cover! The folks over at the Droid Forums have really been making me feel proud about them - many have already started buying and giving me rave reviews!

I say you want your cake and eat it too? Then try out any one of four different color MIKRADLES, on your night table, your desk, kitchen counter or next to your favorite tv chair! It couldn't get easier than this, and look so good at the same time!

Thanks for the compliment!

I fixed the link - not sure why it wasn't working. Thanks for the heads up!

Tonights response to the FREE SHIPPING has been quite brisk and very welcome! Thanks, guys! You are an awesome group here! I've enjoyed following all of your posts, learning quite a bit along the way. And your purchases of MIKRADLE have solidified my belief that these forums are populated by very distinguished and appreciative individuals with a zest for the finer things in life! Glad to have you become part of the MIKRADLE Community!

Respectfully yours - Cuskit

 

Give me an address, and I'll let you know the cost of shipping. Perhaps it won't be so bad, the package weighs only @1/2 lb.

Teak Mikradles are available, but the cost would be $34.95. We are also coming out with 2 new colors soon - black and white. Also, a new and exciting all black "Stealth Edition" is in the works as we speak. I'll post here as soon as it is ready for release, which will hopefully be before years end.

You do not have to worry about shipping on repeat orders. All existing customers will receive free shipping on consecutive orders!

A large batch was shipped out today, if yours was not in that shipment, then it will be shipped with the next batch on Monday, Dec 28th. You will receive an email to that effect.

Actually, we initially produced six for experimental purposes with rubber feet, and the consensus was negative. All six came back with the same response, they'd prefer not having the feet. It was more aesthetics, the lacquered finish does not scratch or mar any surface you place the MIKRADLE on. I use three myself, one on a walnut wood desktop, one on a marble top nightstand and one on a formica top desk (at work). No issues on any with sliding. Should you desire, you can pick up either rubber feet or self-adhesive felt buttons at any craft store, but like I said, it's not really needed.

MIKRADLES are still shipping free, but only until DEC 31! Order now to take advantage of this Holiday Special!
