Seidio INNODock Jr. Cradle

Product Description

The Seidio InnoDock Cradle is one of the most innovative sync and charge cradles available for the Treo. Its trendy design is highly functional, allowing you to dock a Treo while in a case (compatible with most cases that have an open connector bottom and face out screen).

The cradle is powered by your computer's USB port, so no extra wall charger is necessary. If you want to use the cradle away from a computer (say on a nightstand), simply connect the bundled USB Cable to a S&C Wall Adapter (not included).

Features include:

Uniquely designed cradle allows a Treo fit with most cases
Integrated sync button - synchronizing with a touch of the hot sync button.
Treo built-in microphone can be enabled for hands free operation.
USB Sync and charge: Sync and charge via USB port from any laptop or desktop.

well built & functions as advertised

User: Neil Oakden, Jun 26, 2007

Pros: construction, ability to dock in case, sync & charge w/ USB
Cons: can be tricky to align connector w/ bottom of phone

Worth the extra $$ - solid construction and synch and charge through the USB. It's an invaluable addition to my desktop. Power light on the cradle lets you know it is connected and ready to charge. No charging light to indicate phone is charging or ready, but if you have the LED on your phone enabled this is not an issue.

If you keep your phone in a case with access to the multi-connector on the bottom of the phone this is the cradle for you. My 650 in a Krussel case works great.

Only complaint is lining up the connector can be a bit tricky, but this is due to the clearance for the case. VERY minor gripe.

Overall the best desktop charger I've owned.

Versatile cradle

User: Barry Sharpnack, Apr 27, 2007

Pros: holds Treos with skin case on, small, looks good, tilts
Cons: Cant turn of LED, AC adapter not included (xtra charge)

I really like this Innodock JR., even better than Seidio's original Innodock. The only difference is that this JR. model does not have an audio out (which I never used anyway).
Great features: it holds a treo with a skin case or crystal case on it, so it can be synched w/out removing from the case.
Once the Treo is in the cradle, it tilts back at a nice angle that is very easy on the eyes when placed on a desk. And, its round and small and takes very little desk space.
And I have never had a problem with its functionality: always charges and syncs perfectly.
Now, the bad...
This only comes with a USB cable, NOT a A/C line, so if you want to use it as a wall charger, you have to pay extra for their A/C adapter. (Several cradles come with an A/C adapter and wall plug, but this one does not).
My only other gripe is that sometimes I like to use it on my nightstand (I use my Treo as an alarm clock each morning). That green LED is just TOO bright! I ended up putting a small square of electrical tape over the LED and that solved the problem. It'd be nice to be able to turn off the LED though.
Overall, a very good functioning and looking cradle.
...I highly recommend this, but keep in mind that an A/C adapter will cost extra $.

Good charger

User: Neil R, Apr 25, 2007

Pros: Can charge 700p with skin case on
Cons: Have to be careful that your alligning treo with charger contact

So far so good. Sync cords and cord for a/c jack need to be longer. Also, you need to be careful when putting treo on unit so that the contacts align properly.
I would order another one for the office.

Dissapointed with longevity

User: Gary Wells, Oct 22, 2007

Pros: Nice to have charger via USB
Cons: Could not get sync button to work, intermittent connector

I could never get the sync button to do a sync. A sync sound was made but Activesync wouldnt recognize it. After a while the cradle connector wiring inside became intermittent and would not maintain a syncd connection. Too frustrating to have to move my 700wx forward and backward to find the sweet spot. Just ordered the Palm cradle kit to replace this unit.

Great case, poor poor poor customer service

User: sanjay s, Jul 18, 2007

Pros: charges as expected
Cons: connections are NOT guaranteed, does NOT charge second battery

I called customer support at Seidio, should have known better, I guess. Ive never gotten hold of their RMA person, apparently, she is permanently out to lunch.

I bought this thing because I had bought a larger case that was a pain to remove, this charger/cradle said you could charge larger (fatter) cased units (also because I had the 3200MaH battery which increased the back case which didnt allow it to fit in "normal" charger). I called customer service and ASKED POINT BLANK two separate people on two separate calls if the charger ALSO CHARGED A SPARE BATTERY:

"Sure it does, no problem."

Yet imagine my surprise when I get it that it not only doesnt charge a spare battery, it sometimes just drops connection for no reason whatsoever.

The idea of a headphone or AUX jack (never did figure out what that does) is I guess okay, but honestly, its not my MP3 player, its my phone/PDA. I know everything in the world has to "be" like an ipod, but how about we try to keep some perspective here.

The charger is fine, sits right next to my Palm charger which DOES charge my spare battery. Funny, I was buying the Seidio charger specifically to get rid of the other charger.
