Does anyone know if there is a desktop charger for the Captivate? The one advertised on Samsung site has been out of stock since the phone went on sale Jul. 18th...
 
Why not just use micro usb?


Because I WANT a DESKTOP charger...why would you even respond to this with that silly answer? I didn't ask what I should do...I asked if anyone knew of another desktop charger...If you don't know DON'T RESPOND

lol Dude go take your rage to another forum. I gave a suggestion because sometimes folks might just say 'hey I just might do that'. Anyway goodluck on your desktop charger sorry to release the dark side of the force.
 
The Desk Genie is the desktop version of a popular car mount. Perhaps that will work for you although it's not custom built for the Captivate.

Oh hey, that might work. I was hoping to find a desktop charger since the one on Samsung's site just seems to be vaporware. I might have to check it out 19 euro, that about 28 bucks I think, the one on Samsungs site is $40 and has never been in stock.
 
I am either lost or this thing is USELESS waste of money for the Cappy. All you use it for is a HOLDER? $30 holder (after shipping to the States)? It is not a dock for the Captivate, you have to provide your own micro USB. You by hand connect the micro USB to the phone, and then place the phone on this thing? That is all I am getting out of this "cradle"?
 
Yeah I agree it's a rip-off. Just get another wall charger and plug in the cable. That's what I did. In fact I'm going to order some spares and some spare USB cables to keep in various places (home/work/travel).
