I was ahead of the game there Jim, I had my batteries charged and ready!

I have already used it to put a 30% charge in my Trinity, now using it to charge the Orbit 2 by 40%, it works a treat, just remember to turn it off when the device is charged as it gives no warning, the flexy lead makes it all very portable, a bargain!

Just ordered one of the Desktop cradles from eBay - which also come with a charger and screen protector - so will report back when that turns up.

Yep, definitely a bargain Boz, and with the Kaiser fitting into the Hermes cradle, it's pretty sweet....

I would be keen to know what the quality is like Jim, I may be tempted myself then.

To be honest, for the price, I'm expecting more Fiat than Land Rover. However, to me, a desktop cradle is essential and this is the only one I can find. If it just ends up tiding me over until one of the big brands releases one then so bit it.

I'm also hoping Brando will release one of their awesome USB powered speaker docks for it. My MiniS Speaker doc has been all over the world acting as charger/Hotel HiFi!

I know what you mean Jim, but at least it has a nice blue LED indicator on it!

I didn't notice the freebies thrown in until I had another look, you never know you may be pleasantly surprised.

Arrived today (next day) - not a prefect fit but well made and I am quite happy.

Thanks for the feedback, did you buy the PDair case for the Touch Cruise or Orbit 2?

Orbit 2 - I am sure the case will loosen up - currently the voice button is slightly covered and the plastic protection sheet doesn't cover all of this display ( i am not sure but the orbit 2 seems a little less responsive through the plastic screen).
