    It's a HUGE mistake that there aren't any docks that work with VZW silicone, or shell cases. I won't buy a dock that doesn't work with a case. I'll spend $50 for a flimsy factory plastic piece of junk that will hold it with a case though. Build it and take my money please.

    The Maxx dock states right on the box that it 'fits with compatible covers'. I don't know what that is but its not the silicone case they sell. Thankfully that case is easy to remove. Once the phone is docked its secure..at least so far. Just make sure you check the suction at the base now and again. I have gotten in the car only to find it on the floor. Speaking of cases that might work has anyone found one yet? I was looking at the Seidio case as it seems easy enough to get on and off but bulky...the other case is Cruzer Lite. I don't know anything about TPU cases...would this case be easy to remove for docking??

    single cable

    I've got the Verizon car dock - works and fits well, but I notice the one on Amazon.com has a single cable for both power and audio. Anyone know where I can buy the cable without having to spend $57 for another dock?

    Garmin base works with car dock

    If you have used one of the Garmin NUVI's in the past and used the bean bag mount on your dash, that mount works just as well with the MAXX mount; no problem with a suction cup falling off a window - using the suction mount is illegal in some states anyway, e.g. CA.

    Motorola is the only source I know of that can sell you just the cable. I bought two for my and wife's cars. I don't remember how much they charged me. The great thing about that cable is as soon as you connect the dock, the audio is connected too.

    Can you tell me how that audio works....I don't have any special jacks or connections in my car, just a regular old cd player and radio. I have read that others say you can hear calls through the cars speakers. Would I be able to hear calls using that cable? The dock I have came with just the 3.5 cable that I guess plugs into the phone but with no where to plug it in I don't use it.

    In CA you can place the mount in the lower left corner of the windshield...I think you have like 5 or 6 inch square you can use. I have mine mounted on the dash using the disk that came with it.

    The docks for the Razor and the Razor Maxx are NOT the same. If you got yours from a Verizon store, take it back and they will exchange it. The proper one works fine.

    I have the dock made for the Maxx and it does not work with the silicone case. I can "force" the phone into the dock with the case on but it warps the dock and after a short time or after bumps in the road the phone will pop out. Since I don't want to take a chance of damaging my phone I remove the case. It would be nice if the box designated which cases work.
