Hmm debating it, a cradle would be nice. 20 squids is a lot though!

there's a slightly more fashionable one avail. in europe - but it comes out at 33 GBP when u add postage to aus - that's 78 bucks. So i just ordered the expansys one.

Interesting thing, expansys also has a version with built-in speakers for less, and they're available now.

is that the right link?

its cheaper and nastier looking

i think the expansys one is quite good as it has a little dock for the stylus

i have also seen one that sits the k-jam in landscape mode but that means you have to have the keyboard open :S

bought the cheap and nasty one and am pleasantly surprised. came with a uk plug to usb adaptor too.

my only gripe is that the phone sits almost completely vertical making the screen slightly difficult to view.

has anyone looked at the cradle with speakers, it looks well cool, but I think the Verso might have to be the wrong way around to fit in it; i.e. with te back facing out.#
The photos on the expansis site show the mini in the crade so I think they might have the compatability wrong.

I don't suppose anyone could shed any light?

it looks to me like the usb port in the speaker cradle is in the centre... which would make it wizard (magician was to the side).

I bought two of those from him, and he has now set up a paypal account.

4 weeks delivery, but nice - you need to secure it with blurtack, so it can be used in the dock.

The supplied stylus is clear, and there is a blue LED under it, so it lights up!
