Accessories?

Why use a screen protector? The Gorilla Glass should negate any real need.

Once you use a matte screen protector you will never go back. The texture is different, so your fingers slide much easier, there is less glare and less smudges. I'm not concerned about scratching the screen, its more about the texture.

I'm looking for the whole lot; spare battery, extra charger, screen protector, hdmi dock and a car holder that'll actually fit the damn thing!

Well all of those are accessories Dell have shown on the slides of the Streak so i would imagine once they start selling it the accessories should be there as well. Go to this link and you can see all the accessories that will be available

Personally i already have a ADVERTISING SPAM car mount and am just waiting for ADVERTISING SPAM to release their cases for the Streak which they have confirmed to my via E-Mail are coming soon although no date as for a screen protector after seeing the Gorilla Glass taking so much abuse video with no damage i won't be bothering with one. Now I'm just waiting for DHL to deliver mine to me tomorrow and am hoping for an early delivery as can't wait to have mine.

I really need a couple of data cables.. why doesn't it take micro USB? so annoying! If anyone finds any online please post.

Anyway for those interested I have just invested in a Nexxus Drivetransmit PRO Bluetooth With FM Transmitter for my car. This is great for listening to music, podcasts and handfree calling through the car stereo while driving. All wireless and has a USB slot for charging. I got it on eBay for £25.99. For a moment I thought i had invented it until I searched ebay and saw one had been made and I was beaten to it. It seems to work and is well built. Some people might not have realized these things exist so thought it was worth a mention.

I saw one on ebay for 2.99 w/ free shipping, but it looks like a generic micro-usb cable, but says it is for the streak. I think I'll just wait for the dock accessory.

The price for the battery seems OK but the cable seems rather over the top price wise to me especially if you check out the Accessories slide here

http://www.engadget.com/photos/dell-streak-leak/#2915998

Where you will see the

Car Dock Kit @ MSRP$49.99 Home Dock Kit@$69.99

Car Dock Home AV Dock

Dash Mounting Plate USB to USB Mini sync cable

Cigarette Lighter Adaptor USB to DC charge cable

USB to 30 pin sync/charge cable Power Supply unit

Regional Plug

International Travel kit @$24.99

USB 30 pin sync/charge cable Extra Battery Kit $54.99

Power supply unit

Regional Plug Set

So i don't see how they can want £23.99 just for the cable although that slide does show a spare battery at $54.99, are those prices from the Dell UK site? Personally I'm not going to bother with the Home Dock kit or the travel kit but think the Car Dock kit could be worthwhile as to use my current ADVERTISING SPAM car mount i would still need the Cigarette Lighter Adaptor and USB to 30 pin sync/charge cable and can't see that being much cheaper from what you have posted even if it means getting someone in the states to buy it and ship it to me its like going to $15 more for a whole car kit then just the cable.

I think one of the best accessories that will be available soon will be the tv dock so you can stream straight onto the tv, then for those that are going to be travelling a lot the car dock is obviously going to be an important one. Too bad Dell F**ked up and there are delays on the accessories atm
