Great charger November 18, 2009

All this product is is a base station for your charger, nothing more. I bought this because I was sick of keeping my charger plugged into an outlet and having to plug my Blackberry in every night and leave it on the floor. This device is very basic. Your normal charging cord plugs into the back. Your Blackberry slips into the base of the charging pod and stands upright. There are two metal squares on the back of your Tour that connect to the two metal prongs you see on the inside of this charging pod, so you don't have to deal with plugging anything into the side of your Tour. The base is very sturdy, and once your Blackberry is in it, it is not going to fall over or move around a lot.
I keep mine sitting on the end of my desk with the cord hanging behind the desk so you can't see it. I have my Blackberry set to "Bedside Mode," so when I put it into this base, it automatically turns off the keypad and dims the LCD screen, and displays the clock. You can also set up bedside mode to cut off certain alerts. For instance, mine is set to allow incoming calls to ring, but it won't send me a tone alert when I get an email or SMS. I actually used this charging pod in place of my old alarm clock and no longer use an alarm clock, since I can see the clock on my Blackberry from my bed when it is sitting in the charger.
The only problem with this charger, is that you can't use any kind of case on your Blackberry. It won't fit in the charging pod, and most cases cover up the metal charging connectors on the back of the device anyway. If your case easily slips on and off, it might work if you don't find that too much of a hassle. As for me, I love being able to just drop my phone into the base station at night and pick it up in the morning.
Cant use to computer, but great way to charge your BB with Flawless look! March 12, 2010

Watch Video Here: http://www.amazon.com/review/RDNRG88FTM8I5 Not used to plug to computers, but the look is flawless. It's delicate, but it serves its purpose! Definitely 5 stars!
Very useful accessory for the Tour August 15, 2009

This charging pod is a little docking station for your BlackBerry Tour and is quite handy. You will need a charger or USB cable to connect this pod to an electrical outlet or to your PC (both were in the original box with the phone when I got it from Verizon). When you put your Tour into this pod, it's held upright and begins to charge immediately (assuming your charging cable is plugged in to an outlet or PC). By default, the Tour goes into clock mode, which makes this a handy accessory to keep by your bed so you can use the phone as an illuminated alarm clock.
Great product September 2, 2009

I use this charging pod every day. It looks really good on my desk and charges my blackberry quickly. One of the nice features is that when you put your blackberry on the charging pod, it works as a pretty good alarm clock.
Short and sweet...a must have accessory September 4, 2009

Charging pod is much easier than plugging the miniUSB into the side. Saves wear and tear on the USB connector within the phone and let's you easily pick up the Tour and use it if needed. Price is right as well. Highly recommended.
