Has anyone heard any news for a Motorola V3 Razr Cradle?

i'm not sure if they can provide a cradle for the RAZR V3. instead of a "pin configuration" to recharge and the like, the V3 uses a port on the side of the phone. i think it would be difficult to configure this to a cradle that would recharge phone, etc. however, what do i know?

To expand on what tmoody implied, I suspect if we EVER see Motorola come up with a cradle charger for their very own phone (which they have not) then u might see somebody come up with a cradle for the BMW. Until then, do not hold your breath. I.e. not bloody likely :thumbsdown:

So, is there an address we can e-mail to, in order to push the creation of a Razor cradle?

If BMW lurks in this forum (there were some notions)they should react. In particular now Moto's main range of phones would have simillar connections.I would pay a lot for such a cradle. Moreover as they do not offer their BMW Prof phone any more they MUST focus their efforts on cradles.

I totally agree with you.
I would pay much for a V3 cradle.
Bluetooth's energy hunger is unacceptable IMHO and I wouldn't like to use the usual lighter cable.

Same here - I am about to order my first bmw (5series) and am disappointed that i can't get seamless integration with V3 i.e access to antenna and charger - especially given cost of Nav/bluetooth etc

Anyone see MOTO come up with a cradle for their V3? Just a question for thought. Would seem the OEM vendor might be the first to come out with cradle so other vendors could buy rights to reproduce rather than leave it to car mfrs to be the cradle inventer. Each mfr (Audi, BMW, MB, etc) has to come up with their own design for some change that a cell phone maker thinks is cool. And how long will that form and fit last? Will there be another change. I do not fault BMW in this at all - yet.
