Where to find a Cradle?

FYI, it appears the desktop cradle is back in stock at Verizon. https://www.verizonwireless.com/b2c/...essoryId=47531

Were you able to order one? I'm still getting the "out of stock" red banner and no option to order at all.

Yes. I ordered 2 in fact. They shipped this evening. Maybe Verizon is releasing them per zip code. My zip is 98161 (Seattle). I always wondered why they asked for non-phone orders.

edit: I just checked the site again and it is still showing 'in stock'. You have to make sure you hit the check compatibility button before it lets you order.

I saw the post and immediately logged on to Verizon and am greeted with "Out of Stock". Dang. Houston zip code. Maybe it makes a difference.

i tried the Seattle zip and no luck. Maybe sparkz got the only two in stock and they're out again. Oh well. I check the site whenever I'm on so I'll be sure and give a "heads up" if I see anything.

Alright...Am I going crazy or something? I am beginning to wonder what the hell I ordered. Every time I check the site, it still see that it's in stock. We're talking about part#VZW771DTC, right? I guess I'll find out when it arrives on Monday...

I hope I ordered the right one...

Here's a screenshot from 8/11 @ 9pm pst.

No you got it right. And Holy Crap! I was just able to order one at 25% off by pressing "check device compatibility". That's the trick. sparkz, I think you mentioned that. Weird it takes you right to it after that. Awesome. Thanks for the heads up. Persistence pays off. Now I wonder how long it's been available if I knew the trick before. LOL!
I may be celebrating to soon. I got an generic verizon email saying how back order stuff may not ship right away etc. blah, blah, blah, But it did say it was in stock when I placed the order so I dunno... guess I'll see what happens. sparkz. Lets us know when/if you get yours. At least I'm in the queue for one.

phew... For a second there I was getting nervous. Glad you got yours cbreze. Now everyone else go and get em while the gettings good!

Cool, got my tracking number. This is the real deal. This is a great cradle for anybody who's thinking about it. My second one.

Bought two more cradles on Friday & Fedex delivered this morning. I bought one for a buddy & am planning on making one into a car cradle on the dash of my Avalanche. Using a Belkin Aircast Bluetooth adapter to get the audio into the stereo. The old Garmin Streetpilot is being removed after 4 yrs of service.
