What would you get if you were me.....

My wife and I just bought the nexus when we switched to Verizon. We both have an extra battery with a battery charger that also acts as a media stand for the phone.
What should our next accessory be. I can't decide on a desktop dock or a car mount.
Give me your thoughts.

From what I've been reading here, you aren't going to get a "real" car mount that utilizes the 3-pin connector for charging, etc. for Verizon anytime soon.
My first purchases were an extended battery, car charger, and case.

Does the desktop dock use the 3 pins to charge the phone?

As far as I am aware, there is not a desktop dock (or any accessory for that matter) that uses the 3 pin connector that is available for our LTE phones.

I'm happy with my extended battery, Otterbox Defender and Skinomi Techskin screen protector. Just purchased the Xtrememac incharge BT for use in the car. It's $80 but found it for $18 from nothingbutsoftware.com, strange I couldn't complete the purchase on my iPad. I'm glad it wouldn't let me cause it was $30 on the iPad but then when I shared the URL to my Nexus the price was $18. I got email confirmation it shipped today.

Dock station

Anyone find a dock station worth getting?

i9300 dock station
Anyone know if the i9300 dock station, EDD-D200BE, works with the TMobile S3.

I dont see why it wouldnt work. Just seems to use the micro usb port. I hope they make a samsung dock that includes an extra battery like they did with the gnex.

According to the Samsung Accessories page they have one
http://www.samsung.com/us/mobile/cell-phones/SGH-T999MBATMB-accessories
Samsung Galaxy S® III Spare Battery Charging System
ETC-CP1G6LGSTA
but it doesn't look like it has a charging port for the phone and the spare battery..

$50 for a desktop dock or a car dock. That is outrageous for a piece of plastic.

I can't decide if I want to buy two docks or wait for an all-in-one option. I want something that will charge the phone, the battery, and have built in line out. Nothing I've seen has all three.
Maybe I'll wait till Jelly Bean comes out with play-through USB feature and just get a clock dock.

Any suggestions for finding a Pogo Dock?

I'd like a Pogo Dock if only to save the micro USB port but not even Google is selling them now... I know there's eBay but the bids for USED ones exceed $100, it's insane, I guess Samsung didn't manufacture enough.... Is there another place to look? Does anyone here want to unload one?
Thanks.

I can get you a brand new official Samsung desktop dock with pogo pins for AUD$60 plus shipping (from Japan).
The dock is suitable for the international GSM version of the Galaxy Nexus.
You can check my credentials on eBay Australia. My ID is tom1803.

Can you still get the official car dock anywhere?

Is there any place that still sells the official car dock for the GSM Galaxy Nexus? Also are there any alternatives that use the Pogo pins? Even better one that uses the Pogo Pins and supports a case like the Diztronic TPU case?
Let me clarify, anyone still selling the official GSM Galaxy Nexus Car Dock that isn't ~$75? Because at that price I will just hold the thing in my hand the whole time. I seen the Verizon versions going for like $10 on eBay.

I bought a car dock when they were new but never use it because the audio is overdriven. It would work with attenuation in the line I think.
What I wish I had bought is the horizontal pogo pin desk dock. That would be so sweet at work.

I'll sell mine for $35. It's been modified for the Verizon phone, but there's no reason it shouldn't work for gsm as well..
I've also got the desktop dock with HDMI out that I'll sell for $15.

I'm looking for the 3rd dock, not one of these two. . .
Horizontal, pogo pin charging, no HDMI output.
It looks like OP has an option, though. Thanks1

Charging Car Dock?

I'm looking to find a car dock for my nexus that has a port for charging but I haven't had much luck. Does anyone know if this one for the SIII will work with the Nexus? http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...pf_rd_t=101&pf_rd_p=1630083442&pf_rd_i=507846
Or does anyone know of a different good one?

Yes, it will work with nexus.

The title clearly says that its for the SIII. I would worry about the Nexus fitting into the dock properly, not 100% sure about it but I dont believe that the SIII and Nexus have the same form.
My current setup uses that related iGriffin dual USB power with a power only cable and a generic iOttie dock.
