I've heard CellSocket is a good one. I plan on buying one for my v120e
phone (and my fiancee's v60t on Cingular).

They are just being released for the first time this week. Read the Wall
Street Journal article from last Wednesday. The reporter tried it and
liked it.

Re: Which is best Docking Station for T720?


First of all, I have one, use it with a Moto V120e and the phones at home
(no more land lines), and love it. To use it with a T720, there are only
certain models/software versions of that phone that it will work with. You
had asked if it works with a 720, what letter suffix?

For instance from the cellsocket website under compatibility (at
http://www.cellsocket.com/index.php?...LITY&carrier=3):

Carrier: Verizon Wireless Manufacturer: Motorola Model: T720c (CDMA)
Software Version 8300_01.48.XX or lower

Only the Model 720 "C" and software versions lower than above work with it.

Consider the other two models of moto phones they support, Moto v120e and
v60c instead. In my case, I need Express/NationalAccess (high speed packet
data)and the V120e will support that (The T720 doesn't and has also gotten a
very bad reputation, the current T730 sold by verizon (they don't sell
T720's anymore) don't work with it).

How long have you been using the cellsocket?

Of course, the real problem I see with these things is you almost have
to toss em when you upgrade your phone.

Re: Which is best Docking Station for T720?


Before I answer how long, a bit of history. I used to personally have
cingular and a moto t720, and work for a computer repair and cell phone
sales business. I installed a cellsocket since I was at work every day and
it was handy for me to be able to charge the phone while working, and use a
regular cordless phone and headset while working on machines instead of
trying to hold that little cell thing up to my head. We have a high speed
network and an 802.11b hotspot area at work, so I didn't need internet on
the cell phone at that time. We are both a Verizon and Cellsocket dealer at
work. About a month ago, (before it was available for retail sale) we
started testing the Verizon version of the cellsocket, with one of the
phones we had for sale (the moto v120e) and the costs paid for by the
company. That essentially let me use both the work provided cell phone with
regular phones in the office, and both low speed qwk2net and higher speed
Express/NA connections when I went onsite and did service calls. Since I
used the older version of cellsocket at work and loved it, and we were
already dealers for the older model, it was good for both use and sales for
me to use the new one.

At any rate, to answer your question, I used the older one for about 6
months (with Cingular and the Moto T720), and now the newer one on verizon
for about a month <with Verizon and the Moto v120E> (I was a tester, it has
only been available commercially for about a week, sorry about the long
history, but didn't want to sound like a liar making impossible statements).

You had asked in the header about the best Docking Station for the T720, I
feel the cellsocket is the best, but since this is a verizon NG, I tried to
let you know that only certain older/obsolete models would even work on
Verizon, and you may want to consider looking at other/newer/(IMO)better
models of cell phones, since the t720 isn't even sold by verizon anymore due
to multiple problems, and has been replaced.

Unless you like it so much that you upgrade to a newer phone that is also
compatible with the cellsocket.
(when I evaluate newer phones, I give them extra credit points for
compatibility with the accessories I already have

The new cellsocket would just use a different adapter (if available) at a
cost of 20 dollars for a new phone....the same base unit would be reused.

Will these adapters be available for more than just Motorola?
