Question about

Hey guys, I wanted to ask you all a question. I bought the Motorola Multimedia Dock a while back and just recently realized how dissatisfied I was with it.

The price was too high and it's just another glossy black electronic accessory.

So, I started sketching possible designs for a dock of my own and began talking to suppliers. If all goes according to plan I will produce two variants of my dock, one made out of a lighter color wood with a stainless steel base and one made out of a darker wood with a darker metal base. Having to always search for my USB cable was a pain so the dock will feature an included retractable cable that is stored in the dock when not in use.

I would like to make different docks for different phones but since I don't want to throw all my money at this I'm just going to offer a solution for the Droid to begin with.

My question to you all is this... would you be interested in a good looking dock made out of premium materials at a price in the low twenties? Obviously you would have to see it before making a buying decision but I just wanted to get some feedback first.

Thanks in advance.

Not really. Not when you can enable the dock mode via a free app and the dock itself doesn't really add any extra functionality.

That sounds like nothing short of an awesome idea and product. If I had a Droid I'd totally buy that.

I would definitely be interested in this. Right now, I'm just using a couple of fridge magnets and a folded piece of cardboard, which works fine but is cheap and ugly. I like the idea of having a retractable cable, and the darker wood would fit my room nicely.

Yeah, this sounds awesome and the price is right. How did it pan out? Where can I get one?
