All xoom accessories are on clearance/sale at staples. I picked up the standard dock for $25. They also had the wall charger for $15. I don't remember the price of the other accessories.
I bought and returned the HD dock. The Staples web site claims it has three USB ports and of course it has none. So I returned it and got the standard dock instead.

I have both and use them everyday. It sounds like you got a good deal.
I use my dock and moto case daily. Thanks for posting though! Have a friend that wanted both.

I just checked at my local Staples and everything is still full price.

I went by a local staples last night and they had the wall and car chargers for 5.50 each.
I just purchased the HD Speaker Dock and Standard Wall Charger (dog chewed the original) at Staples.com.
The total was $79.98 so I purchased (for $1.75) a $25 off $75 purchase coupon from this site:
http://www.sderclub.com/staples/
That brought the total down to $54.98. I also happened to have a $5.00 Staples Rewards coupon to bring it down to $49.98. Shipping is free this week and factoring in tax and the cost of the coupon...
Final total: $54.73
Not bad.
Local Staples has car and wall chargers for $5.50, but did not update price tags, so if you see full price or anything else, ask them to scan them for you.
That's very true about the unchanged prices. I just went to Staples and picked up a wall charger for $5.50, still marked as $15.

so, realized i had a mini usb charger and not a micro usb charger for my car. went to walmart. all their car chargers were 15 dollars except for 1.
it was for kyocera, but was just a micro usb.
so if you dont want to wait for a cheap one from online to ship, go to wally world, check out the kyocera chargers, and get it for 10.
Or you can buy one for $2.50 shipped on ebay.
I agree with drew on this one. I haven't found a cheaper place for a car charger other than ebay. Electronic stores tend to rip you off.
If anyone isnt comfortable with ebay, there are plent of estores that have them for cheap as well.
Yea that free $20 accessory credit from Radioshack was used on a stupid $20 car charger because they had nothing else in stock. I had no choice. It was either that or nothing!
Well, that is why I said "if you don't want to wait". I agree with the eBay thing, done it many times. But, couldn't wait given a road trip tomorrow.

I have been trying to find the cheapest hdmi cable for the droid x right now. The lowest I can go is $14.29. Also if an admin could allow me post links I would add the link.

It is Micro HDMI to HDMI.
I found the cheapest to be a 1 footer for 11$ with free shipping from Brooklyn on ebay. Also, if you use Bing cash back, you can get 8% off (88 cents ). I would post links, but i cant.
I just searched for Micro HDMI on ebay and came up with plenty of options for $10 or less.

I couldn't believe this but, I was at a verizon store yesterday asking about the hdmi cables and another customer overheard me. He pulled me aside and told me that you can get at lowes in the satellite dish dept. He said you could get a 12 foot cord for half of what verizon charges. I'm going to head over there shortly to find out if it's true.
Update... If lowes has them I didnt see them. they had regular hdmi cables but nothing for micro usb. I think the guy misunderstood what I was looking for.

Buying non-oem from china means it'll work for a month then it breaks. Long run you're gonna spend a lot more. Avoid eBay spend a few bucks more and get something reliable.
I got my hdmi cable (15 ft) and a new usb cause the box one is too short (6 ft) for only 15 bucks from monoprice.com with next day shipping.

The seller "Eforcity" on eBay has a LOAD of cheap HDMI cables, I saw one for $5.50 shipped earlier.
I'd post a link, except this is my first post.
Saw these on Overstock.com
Wall + Car Charger for Motorola Xoom
Says Shipping only costs you $2.95 in the lower 48 so total you're paying $9.44 not including any Tax I would assume. I paid ~$25 for just the car charger when I first got my Xoom.
Saw these, I already own them but looks like a great deal for 'em, even if it's just for the Car Charger!
I don't believe these are Xyboard or w/e it is compatible as I think that charges off Micro USB.
Have a good one all.
You can also get the original Motorola ones from Staples for 2.50 each. I got the car charger for 2.50 at my local Staples in Los Angeles, CA.

Can you, if you still have it, give us the Staples SKUs for each charger? Thanks.
(In any case this is a lucky find as I just broke the middle pin on my car charger today!)
I don't have the SKUs anymore, but the model # of the car charger is SJYN0597A. It was on clearance for $2.50 at the local Staples.

Guess I know where I'm going at lunch. Hopefully they have them here.
No luck at Staples in Cedar Rapids, IA. They didn't have any car chargers and all of their Xoom stuff was full price.
No luck at the few I'd tried in Silicon Valley, either. What zip are you in, "powerchilango"? I actually live in SoCal (and work in NoCal) and can try some stores when I get home.
No luck in Las Vegas either.
I'm beginning to think that this may have been a store only special in that posters area.
Id rather spend the 7 bucks and save the gas - having them ship is much easier.

OK, so my units (I bought two apiece) showed up yesterday. I'd expected cheap Chinese knockoff-quality units, but the worst part is the tips don't make a good connection to the charge port unless you wiggle it a little 'tll you find the right spot, and don't move them around after that.
They're OK for the price for an emergency backup, but don't expect to use them to replace an official Moto unit long-term.

SO true. I'll leave 'em in the other car and in my desk in case I REAAAAALY need to charge in an emergency (and expect to have to hold it all the time), but yeah, it's like they didn't even test 'em first.
I'm almost tempted to leave a review on o.co to warn other Xoomers.
I could have sworn I saw these were original OEM Motorola chargers. That's why I got them. Guess I was wrong. Beware everybody....

Great Price, here in Brazil original charger cost $60-$70 dollars.
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00E9MUNWU/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
I ordered one to test it out and I love it. I already ordered another one for the nightstand.
$19, no tax and free shipping. It took about 2 weeks to get to me but for the price I'm ok with that.
I'm not sure about charging time but it doesn't seem slow. It only comes with a usb cable so if you need a power plug for an outlet then you will need to supply your own.
I've only used it caseless so far as the cases I ordered are taking their sweet time coming in.
I didn't think I would like wireless charging that much but ... yeah, I like it alot.
I think its better to add a few bucks and get this: http://www.amazon.com/Okeler-Wireless-Charging-Charger-Samsung/dp/B00EXLZIF4/ref=pd_rhf_ee_p_d_7

Round or rectangle, its just a personal preference.
I wouldn't mind a small super shallow one for my carholder.
Yea..or. You can buy the Nokia DT-900 Qi Plates from a known company with history for $25 shipped new in box on ebay all day long.
And unlike either of those it comes with both a AC Adapter and cable and does not ship from China.
Shhhh, don't tell anyone but they are all probably made in china.

I also did some searching and seems there are a bunch for $30 right now. If you check back ever few days you'll def be able to nab one for around $25 or maybe even less. There's a ton of them out there since they came free with Lumia purchases. I don't think I've seen any for 70 dollars, seems the highest is around 40.
here's the AT&T link, I bought 3 of these a month or so back. Deal still looks active.

I work for AT&T and the Nokia DT-900 is currently 50% off. It's not advertised and I didn't even know about it until I scanned it and saw it. Lucky me I get an added 40% discount. I'm not into wireless charging, but for only $15 I'll take it!
Getting back to the Lerway... I own one and it's a pretty decent charger. Not too finicky about positioning and appears to charge as fast as hardwired. It's actually a rubberized plastic which I didn't realize from the pictures, this compliments the N5 quite nicely.
But, if you can get a Nokia for 5 bucks more, don't be stupid, go for the Nokia.
I have two Nokia Qi chargers, one at work and one at home. They're great with the Nexus 5, no problems at all.
ONE WARNING THOUGH: The DT-900 use a proprietary charging cord. Not micro USB. Don't get the DT-900 for use in your car, it won't work!
They make a car charger, with a one piece cord that plugs into a car cigarette charger, but that is the CR-200 and will cost you more than the on-sale prices people have posted.
I have mentioned it few times now but the one in eBay is 10 dollars and change and works great . nice packaging too and ships fast . that's what I use every night.

I was going to pick up an HDMI cable for $2.99, but then the shipping was going to be $10.95. LOL.
Anybody know if this cable is anything special, or can I get a generic one from Monoprice?
Also, that Bluetooth remote thingy looks interesting, but I can't really imagine that I would use it much. Anybody have one of these?
Moto's $11 shipping is really killing their accessory sales. I just can't see paying almost $30 for another set of screen protectors.
Thanks for the heads up. Picked up 3 battery packs, the headphones, the Bluetooth remote, and HDMI cable.
Gonna have to teach my parents how to use the battery packs lol.
The cable only works for the droids, not the moto x from what I know

So no, $19.69 is not cheaper than the $9.99 plus $4 shipping costs from Moto.

got myself a pack too, well, its for my girlfriend. Her S3 is always dying, so i thought this should help the problem a bit...

The one on the moto site is a P793 with only 1400 mAh, while the one on the Amazon link is a P893 with over 1800 mAh. They're both too small to be of any real use, even @ only $10. I managed to grab a 5,000 mAh pack for $15 a while back.
At first I thought it was a super hot deal, but after researching about the products, they look like crap.
The battery is only 1400 mAh and according to a picture of the product, it only outputs 5V @ 500mA rate.
I also wanted the Bluetooth Smart Controller, but reading it, looks like it's pretty useless flop.
Flip Stand looked good as an original OEM device, but reading some reviews it's also crap.
The only thing I want is the HDMI cable, for times I want to hook up my phone to a TV, but one cable plus shipping, I don't think it's worth it.
edit: Got the HDMI cable while ordering moto bluetooth streaming device (was $20), it's actually a microHDMI to HDMI cable. This is not a microUSB-shape cable. Works for my XE-500T tablet though.

Yeah, I picked one up along with a couple of sets of $3 headphones. It is a low-capacity battery, but in decent packaging to carry in a briefcase or backpack. It certainly is not a multi-charge your device option, but if running low, it will get you through the day. This is my first phone that I can not carry a spare battery with me for - so this was a reasonable option at a cheap price. Obviously they are clearing these as they have the newer higher-capacity ones on the site.
I just bought the p4000 for 21 on eBay.. Kinda glad I did..
