Why can't we get docks like this? This is truly frustrating.

Because Sense doesn't run in landscape.

Because Motorola has a lot more money (and more desire) to invest in phone toys than HTC does.
And other companies would rather invest their money in accessories for Apple than anything else. Because lets face it, Apple is huge and iPhone users love to spend money on toys.
At the end of the day, I would rather have a phone I am happy with than a phone that has lots of accessories. Accessories that I probably wouldn't buy anyway. Sure they look cool, but I want my phone to be cool. And you couldn't pay me to use a Motorola phone.

I had heard it's also related to the overheating issue the phone has. The DInc's battery does tend to run pretty hot when charging sometimes.

Yeah the accessories for the D1 & D2 are pretty great especially the desk and car docks . But I just like my Incredible so much more overall.
But I'm happy with my phone so I'm not gonna worry about it, plus while cool .. Are they really necessaties? or something we'd just be wasting our money on?
I know I go about my day fine with out those toys but if they were available I'd probably waste money on them lol
I love the look of the R2D2 version except for that crazy decal on the back, should have beena little more simple and not so in your face. I can't imagine that phone being that popular , who wants to see that big decal on the back every day?

I am I still wondering why the heck HTC can't get Sense to run in Landscape.
If Launcher pro can do it for free, why can't HTC.

only thing really needed is this-
Micro USB Cable - Up Angled - 72 inch - RR-AUMCB-72G - eBay (item 220655500044 end time Sep-15-10 13:36:10 PDT)
and for me .... its a wrap.!
love the way this looks-
ebay search em if links dont work.!
Right, but with 2.2, the charging time is slower so that the battery doesn't get so hot anymore.
So a dock could be a possibility in the future?
Highly doubtful. when these phone are announced especially the docks hit the drawing boards quick. pattens, designs and so forth. unfortunitly my guess is the incredible is yesterdays news... maybe Im wrong. at least i hope i am...
