Rapid Charger with long cord

[EMC23]

I love the rapid charger that came with the phone but the cord is really short. Is there a place where I can purchase that charger but longer?
TIA

Just get a longer USB cable...Newegg has them.

Yup you want a male USB to male micro USB. Wouldn't get the cheapest around but most any will work.

Blackberry ones work great and are longer.

Check out monoprice.com. There was another thread about this. I just bought some stuff from there. Only cost me $5.

Excuse me if I sound stupid but are you saying the rapid part of the charger is in the part that gets plugged into the wall, not the actual usb cable?
TIA

i think he is talking about the usb to micro cable itself. I use the charger from my env touch, since it was also a micro usb type charger.

You can use any USB-Micro USB cord.

Yes. The cable is just a cable.

I had the same problem, I just put in a order for the media station hope it comes with a longer cord.

looks like monoprice is all sold out of everything but the 15ft cable for $2. But honestly, if you ever buy a cable somewhere else, I think you made a mistake unless HDMI Cable, Home Theater Accessories, HDMI Products, Cables, Adapters, Video/Audio Switch, Networking, USB, Firewire, Printer Toner, and more! is sold out

you could always get a usb cable extender. i already have 2 at home and you can still transfer data

Hate to break it to you but it doesn't.

I got the verizon music essentials kit for 5 bucks at the verizon store.
6ft cable, threw the rest away. it wasnt for the Droid, but was just a micro usb cable anyways. ask your local store

I read some threads about the Droid doing things autonomously (texting people, calling people, opening/closing menus) because of cheapo (ebay) wires.

Can people vouch for the monoprice ones not doing this?
Or vice versa, has anyone gotten em and experienced this?
