For all who are interested in getting a car charger for the Xoom, now might be the time. Verizon Wireless has a sale with 50% off. No idea when this will expire or if it's available in all areas. Follow me.
EDIT: It actually includes free shipping as well!
I see the standard dock is on sale as well -9.00 off
Thank You!!!
I just ordered mine. This was a necessity for me as I know my wife will be on my Xoom (Angry Birds, no doubt) during our long trips down the coast to see family.
$15 is a great deal.
Can't seem to be able to buy it from the Xoom, though. Only option is "Wish List".
Make sure you use the compatibility check and Put in the xoom. Then it will let you add to cart. Thanks to the OP! Ordered mine earlier today after reading this. Great deal!
Just ordered mine with free overnight shipping. Can't beat that

Ah, thanks! Also, if there's a VZ store near you, you can get it in-store for the same price. Headed over there now.

It gets worse- they charged me $14.95, exactly, just as it was listed on my pickup order- not even the 8.75% CA sales tax! Ah well, perhaps I can save someone else some time with this info ....
Thank you.
I have to be honest here though this is really the way to go:

Buy it one time and your done for life. Wire it up and stick it under the seat. I believe AutoZone and Advanced Auto sell them at reasonable prices as well. I mean of course you could go to WalMart but come on people spread your money around.

These inverters are ok however, the 12v car type charging cords are less wear and tear on you autos elect. system. I drive a semi and our company had increaced service costs because of drivers useing these inverters in the trucks. I am not saying dont buy one I was just giveing out some info. to think about before buying a inverter.
I bet one of the reasons they sell this cord so cheep is that they wanted to know who has a 3G/4G xoom that has not signed up for a data plan. I bet they will use this info. to try and sell you a plan. Who knows they may even have specials that will come up with less of a cost for their data plan. But I know they will at least use your shipping adress to send you offers. Over night shipping is expencive! between $11.00-$13.00! (they have to be loosing money on this cord + shipping) I myself dont care if they send me junk mail as long as I get this cord OVERNIGHT shipped to me for this price!. Its a good idea for the company to do it this way.

I am not sure I understand this reasoning. When I bought mine from Costco, they took my info and recorded the serial of the Xoom. I did not get the data plan. So they have my info already and can easily see that I am not using their data plan. Why would they need to sell an accessory to determine this?

Its a cheap way for a company to get a mailing list for selling stuff!. Its not a bad idea in fact, its a good idea!. Remember other cell companies are going to be adding the xoom to their service plans soon (Sprint to name one) compitition is a good thing for the customer!. Also, just think about it for a second.... This also provides Sprint a advance way to check your credit as you use your card when buying the cord, and there by filter out customers with sub standard credit for their services. Then when they offer you a "special plan" they will know they can aprove you when you sign up. Makes sense now?

Of course, that is the same with all companies. But to say they are selling these to find out who is using their data plan or not does not make sense. If my grandma ordered the cable for me and does not even have a Xoom, how would that help them determine whether or not someone is using data? You don't need to enter any information about your Xoom to order it. Does not make sense. I am sure Verizon already has the serial # of every Xoom sold and can easily see which ones have data plans and which ones do not.

Ok tell me why they would pay $11.00-$14.00 for over night shipping and charge you only $14.99 for a cord with free over night shipping? (the kindness of their heart?

I am not sure what you don't understand about they already have your information when you purchased the Xoom. They already know whether or not you have data plan with them. What difference does it make whether you buy an accessory from them or not? They already have your info! And what does a car charger have to do with finding out if you have a data plan? Nothing. It is for charging your device not accessing data. You are not making any sense.

T-Mobile has a coupon on their Facebook page for 50% off any accessories in the store http://www.facebook.com/tmobile I think I may buy the 1650 mah battery for $25.00 with the coupon. Thanks me!
Coupon
Aren't they out of the 1650mah batteries right now? Couldn't find them on the website. Also, is it confirmed that the 1650mah fits perfectly into the Vibrant? Skip that. I can probably find an answer with a search
Why can i never find anything good when there is a sale on...
The 1650 does fit just fine into the Vibrant. I'm using one now
I love how t-mo sells car chargers for $30+ and cases for 20+ when on amazon you can get them for a dollar... *not to say I would trust these at $1 but still.
Thanks for the coupon I will check it out.
too bad they don't consider phones an accessory like I do.

Serious? I have been with them since day one (my old local provider was bought up by them) and they don't do squat for me.

they usually wont help me out. i was looking for a powerskin case (i dont keep my phone in my pocket, like... ever.. so the issues people complain about shouldnt be a problem for me) and asked one of the local store reps why they are dickheads now about upgrades on family plans... and he hooked it up with a workaround.
scenario: my grandma is my second line. she has a dumbphone and doesnt text/data. i want to use her line to get whatever SGS2 variant comes out in august, but if i do that, i have to add data on her line, even though she wont be using the phone.
i asked the guy wtf is up with that, how it's not fair because i'm still paying the data on my line and they're getting a 2 year agreement on that line.
the loophole:
i upgrade her line to get the phone, add the data plan.
i then buy a dumbphone at full price (one of those refurbished POS phones for <$40 on her line and remove the data plan.
i bought the mhl cable with the coupon for 10.81 and tried it with my evo 3d and it did not work. Is there something i need to turn on in settings on my htc evo 3d?
my TV wasnt finding a signal in the hdmi 3 port that my phone was plugged into
I ordered "Samsung" branded items from Amazon, the low end bluetooth earbud is attrocious. The wallwart with data cable would not charge the phone. The car charger worked fine. The earbud and wallwart/cable look to have been sold a few times previously. For the hassle I'm out the shipping and could only get a refund on one of them. I've now been waiting a week on replacements. I would not pay t-mobiles prices but I will shop local for any other accessories.
It's getting even cheaper now!
Time for everyone to get one.

ATT rep. told me " You would be able to use WiFi with the Motorola ATRIX LapDock, if you do no want the DataPro 4GB plan you can have the 200MB plan."
As far as I get - regular mobile internet (like 200Mb plan) wouldn't work in dock mode
Anyone know of a way to get this deal to Canada? Bell is still charging $299 for theirs...

There are plenty of threads about the webtop hack that will let you use your current plan. It's ridiculous that they classify this as a separate device when it's the same exact hardware.

holy crap! buying one for myself and the wife for christmas!
i just got one from att yesterday...seezh i guess i got to call and get my $50back .....btw does anyone know if there is such a thing as an extender that can be used from these lapdocks to newer phones just curious
Would anyone be willing to ship one to Canada? I could send the total cost for it plus the shipping and what ever you would charge to do this through PayPal or pay to email?
Also, if I lived in the U. S. I would buy a few snd sell them on eBay, not everyone knows about the price yet, could make a few bucks there! Just a thought ;-)

I was just told by a rep (for what its worth) that those of us grandfathered into the unlimited data plans, we can use this on WiFi only without risking losing our unlimited data...
That's cause the datapro plan changes your plan. Use the search button for the webtop hack. I think its in Android Development. Its long term, just like the entitlement check for tethering.

DO NOT do this. There is way more to power supply compatibility than the connector. This is quite frankly stupid and irresponsible advice. You must ensure that voltages, etc., are the same or you risk not only damaging the device, but also fire.
If proper compatibility was meant to be implied by that post, i.e. voltage, it should have been explicitly stated, and not just commented about the port.

Use WiFi. You don't need a tether plan from your provider. You can tether if you want without a plan. I just use my lapdock when on WiFi, but I could use WiFi Tether if I wanted when there is no WiFi available.
I know when the Atrix first came out, AT&T required the purchase of a tethering plan with the lapdock. This is probably why the lapdocks didn't sell that well (that and the $300 price tag).
Maybe this is just a throwback description, but the product information on Amazon still states that a tethering plan is required, which is why I asked.
(Note: The Motorola Lapdock requires the separately available Motorola ATRIX 4G, and an AT&T 4 GB DataPro with Tethering plan is required to use the Lapdock with your ATRIX 4G.)
Maybe they meant when using cellular data.
Either way, thanks. Time to make a purchase.....

The only time ATT required a tethering plan with the lapdock was for the $100 rebate that they did for a while. Granted, without it the lapdock is neutered (unless you're on wifi), but it's never been required.

I know, but I went with the assumption that any human who had the brains to choose the ATRIX instead of other overly-advertised phones would have the brains to also check the voltage and amperage. In any case, they (U and I) should be about the same. I mean every device has a failsafe that doesn't accept current that doesn't fall within the range of X +/- 5V and 1A or so (where X is the original charger's specs).

Not true. I bought my Atrix the first day it was available for sale in stores. I was so turned off by the thought of purchasing an additional data plan (tethering) that I never gave it a second thought until recently.

Third, what insurance do you guys recommend I get protect myself from this happeng again? Best buy?

I'm not sure what they would charge for repair, but maybe about $200? If you junk it and sell it on Ebay, it'll probably go for around $200, maybe more. Here's one on ebay thats similar and already at $222 http://www.ebay.com/itm/Samsung-Gal...1084813184?pt=Cell_Phones&hash=item3cc9de1780
I have Best Buy's insurance, and since it has no deductible, is probably the best in my opinion. The ease of mine that comes along with it. The only down side, is that it doesn't cover loss or theft.
I'm pretty sure you can use ADB to access your internal SD, but don't know the commands.

If your computer is recognizing it, you can try using the toolkit to restore to factory default.

stick it on ebay for $99 for 5 days ---> profit
as for insurance, get yourself a squaretrade plan, and ask someone for a 30% off coupon. current customers get a unique code every Tuesday
Goto google play on your computer browser. Install an app called android lost. Then go to the android lost website and you can wipe the contents of your phone or even copy them off. The only problem is sometimes the app requires you to click okay on the app on the phone. This as is a beta version app and is a little buggy but it's free to try.

When the Note I came out Costco sold it for regular price with Flip Case and two Screen protectors. Does anyone know or have gotten the Note II
at Costco? If so does it come with same accessories? Haven't had a chance to make it down there to ask them.
I was told they are getting it near launch date. They already sent back original Note inventory. Accessories unknown but usually lame except for one OEM they include.

AT&T at Costco....
I was at Costco before as well, and noticed that the Kios/stand didn't have the AT&T phones anymore. I asked what happened, and they said they are no longer doing AT&T phone in the store, but will still do it online... I'm not sure if it's all Costco, or just in my region(Northwest)....
I asked about the Note 2 as well, and they were only able to answer for the carriers that had in the store..
I have not seen it online(haven't checked yet today) on the Costco site... so, just ended up pre-ordering from AT&T...
I work there...we still sell at&t phones and service through the with wireless advocates kiosk. I have no clue what the accessory bundle is going to be, but I'm pretty sure its going to be 279.99 or 289.99...we don't sell phones outright. Only new, upgrades, and add a line.

I work there...we still sell at&t phones and service through the with wireless advocates kiosk. I have no clue what the accessory bundle is going to be, but I'm pretty sure its going to be 279.99 or 289.99...we don't sell phones outright. Only new, upgrades, and add a line.

So, at least it's not all of Costco Kios that AT&T is pulling out of.. was hoping that they were still at the one in my area... as I liked getting the accessories as a bonus..
Do you know when it will go live online for order? I know when I ordered the SGSIII, I was able to pre-order it online.

I do know its only going to be for home delivery as of now. You'll be able to go online yourself or go to a kiosk and the employees there will order it for you. Kind of sucks, I understand why (note is still considered a niche category phone).

Unfortunatly, the person at that time stated that they couldn't order any AT&T phone at the Kios, and it has to be done only online, as they got rid of the AT&T display..
So, not sure what the story is.. haha... either way, I'm good with the online order from AT&T direct...
Thank you everyone for your input. I will be purchasing my phones from Costco from now on.

Depending on the type of account you have, they will honor the 14 or 30 day return. After that, 90 days for device swap for same device. Just an FYI for you. As long as you're not one to abuse this policy, they will help you anyway they can.
Only downside is they hardly ever have pre-orders. I've only seen the one s for tmo.
