[Q] Where to buy the official car dock in Canada? - Galaxy S II Accessories

I've done a few searches online and by calling Samsung Canada, but I can't seem to find anywhere to buy the car dock in Canada. Does anyone know the best way for me to get one officially?

I expect online is your only option, we get stuff late this north.

Can you give me a link to that?

Thanks for that. I checked the site a few days ago and it didn't appear there. All they has was a wall charger for $50. LOL

GNex Accessories in store in Canada?

Has anyone been able to locate any Galaxy Nexus accessories in store? I've only found 1 case in 3 colors but I'm looking for the docks. They're available on Bell.ca but I want to pick one up instore.
Hate to bump myself, but I just got an email from Bell saying that my order has been delayed until the third week of January.. unacceptable wait, so I cancelled. Now I'm looking to buy these docks somewhere, anywhere. Online or instore.
everyone, including myself, wants a dock. they are no where to be found.
was your phone bumped back to January or just the Dock?

I was pretty discouraged initially in having to spend $85+ tax for the car dock.. Now I don't care, I just want it.

Anyone know where to buy the Pogo Desktop Dock?

Now that the Nexus 4 is out, it looks like Google is no longer selling the Galaxy Nexus pogo dock. Does anyone know where I should look without being charged an arm and a leg?

eBay, search the topic and you will find pages of discussions and attempts to find the docks from google and/or Samsung
Yeah haha ^
You will be charged an arm and a leg, though. And Verizon ones tend to be more expensive. The docks originally cost $90 new, and now people can sell theirs and make at least that, auctions on eBay can take it up to $120+ and they only pop up every few days.
Best bet is to pounce on a buy it now as soon as possible, then you'd only have to pay $80 or so. Just make sure it's the Verizon dock if you have the VZW GalNex and vice versa.

I am looking to get one too. I don't want to buy the one of ebay. Anyone willing to part with their GSM pogo dock if they aren't using it? I'll offer $40. Or any tips on where I can get a used one in working condition? Amazon doesn't have any, Play obviously doesn't have them on sale anymore. Found a few with bundles on swappa, but seller wouldn't sell it separately. Ebay as mentioned above is shipping from UK and it comes out to like $90 with shipping.

If you want one be ready to put up $90. I got lucky and found a new one for $85ish shipping from Japan
PM me if anyone is interested in getting a brand new one.
For GSM version only.
Cheers,
Tom

And that's where I got mine ^ recommend him highly!
I'm embarrassed at what I paid for mine, and that was a used one on ebay plus I had to modify it for the toro. I needed it though I've been using a dock on my phones every night for the past few years and wasn't about to give that up. Trust me, these things are damn near extinct and the people who have them know that.
MonoPrice has a nice adaptor for the Galaxy Nexus. I can't post links yet (under 10 posts), but it's product ID 9291
I was thinking about making a dock that uses the internals from that part.
I saw a Verizon Pogo dock going for $180 on eBay the other day... Ugh I hate price gougers...

I would recommend taking a look at this article, I would imagine eventually it will be sold there through Amazon. One possible way around this is do you have any family or friends in the USA who would be willing to buy it and ship it to you? If that's not an option what you can do is use a service like this where you can buy the item on Amazon, ship it to them, and then they will forward it along to you in a couple days of shipping time.

I though some Canadian customers had reported getting 'content unavailable in your area" messages.

A US-based VPN service would be a good way around that.
Honestly, I'd stay away from it for now.
I just got one (I'm Canadian), and I've setup a US based DNS that I use for Netflix, etc. on all my other devices and I still get content unavailable errors. I can't even *install* netflix without sideloading it right now.
This isn't ready to be used in Canada, go get an Android stick or a Google TV for now (I'm still using my Hisense Pulse's because the FireTV is so broken in Canada right now).
Luckily I had to get one for some development work so I'm not that disappointed, but don't buy this yet and expect it to work well in Canada, even with a US VPN/DNS...
Do you think us canadians will get the firmware updates from Amazon with a canadian IP?

Nokia DT-900 wireless charger $5 or less today! (US Only)

Nokia Wireless Charger on sale today at ATT stores - $5. If you get 3+ its 25% off further
I just picked up 4 of these for $16 with local store pickup.
If you're in the market for a wireless charger, this is a STEAL! Run, don't even think about it. Pretty sure these will be all gone soon.
Online is already sold out. So you'll need to enter your zip code and see if any local ATT stores have them in stock.
Nice review of the charger here:

You might want to add that the deal is not applicable if you're not in the US. (Not that I should be buying any more Qi chargers anyway...)

Done. Thanks
All out online for me and not available anywhere in Miami for pick up ?

Sold out everywhere around me as well. That's upsetting. Android Central tweeted about this yesterday/today and I normally read all my tweets and I somehow missed it. Would have ordered a couple.
Got excited because my local store had them "in stock" ordered 3, drove down, someone else picked up the last one right before I got there. Everywhere around me is now out of stock. Bummer.

Yeah, when I checked online for local inventory, almost 10 stores all had them in stock. I ordered 4 but when I went to pick up they only had 3 in stock. Then when I got back to my office, everyone couldn't believe how cheap I got them for and wanted to order some too. So when we looked online for local pickup, ALL 10 stores were sold out. That was in a 2 hour timeframe.
Are they clearance'ing these out or something?
I bought 3 back when I got my N5. Great charger. I use one at work, sent one to a friend, and still have one in a box at home.
Back in stock. I just hit the link and saw these were still available.

Tried to buy 4 to ship to in laws in NJ (I'm in Montreal). Unfortunately the credit card portion screwed me, asking for American billing addy, so it doesn't pass credit card authentication. Damn it.
White ones are back in stock.

Thanks, got 2 white ones... these are good and for $5 it's a steal.
I must be getting unlucky. I have had the page open for the last few days since the original sale and every time I refresh it's still sold out.
White's are back in stock again. Just bought 8...lol

Thanks i just picked up 4 right now, great deal.
Thanks for the heads up, just scooped up a few for myself! Thanks again!

No problem! I wonder how long they're going to sell them this cheap for.
Thanks much, I was totally bummed when I missed the original sale. Still bummed that I missed out on the fatboy chargers (would've preferred that) but this is a good secondary option. I can always make the pillow myself

Yeah same here, I was so upset because I follow AC on twitter and somehow didn't read the original announcement. I've been refreshing the page like 20 times a day since then. What's the fatboy charger?
