Re: The DOCKEY coming this month for BlackBerry!

1) Usually every day I charge it in the car about an hour on the way to work.
2) I use the AC adapter more often than the PC USB at this point
3) For all devices, probably about 7-10. For the Blackberry, only the USB cable that came in the box
4) Tethering; it also works with the RAZR we have
5) When I first had the BB, I didn't realize it needed charging as much as it does, so it ran out of juice during a phone call. That's when I picked up a car adapter and started charging it every day.

Re: The DOCKEY coming this month for BlackBerry!

1) Every other day for normal use, but I drain it a lot faster when using EV-DO data tethering!
2) At home, I use the AC charger, but on the road or when heavily using data, I find myself taking out the long USB cable to keep the phone charged.
3) I easily have a dozen or two USB cables, with all permutations of connectors, yet somehow I'm never able to find the right cable (a printer cable doesn't do very much good when trying to charge my BlackBerry).
4) Tthe cable saved my BlackBerry from a most certain destruction (or at least some scratches) when knocked off the table by a pesky cat.
5) The GPS is both an life saver in a cruse. While lost in Philly (as a passenger, not a driver!) I was using Google Maps to try to find our destination, but the constant on-time with data downloading drained the battery like crazy... eventually, my BlackBerry turned off the radio for lack of power.

Re: The DOCKEY coming this month for BlackBerry!

1) When my Blackberry needs charging
2) Honestly, I lost my home charger so I only charge it when I'm on my computer... CHARGERS cost too MUCH here in Hawaii!!!
3) Only the one that came with the Blackberry.
4) PSP cable, TI Calculator cable, Hair tie, Tow Cable... j/p
5) I'm always on the go so its kind hard to find a way to charge my BB but I once needed it for school and forgot my USB charger so it died out when I logged into my school e-mail and I couldn't view my HW... sO got an F for that day!!! Funny yeah.

Re: The DOCKEY coming this month for BlackBerry!

1.) Every night, overnight, and sometimes I leave it connected to the PC after I've synched just to give it some extra charge.
2.) PC/notebook.
3.) 2
4.) It's capable of charging my husband's RAZR and synching my camera (though usually it's the other way around and I charge the BB with whatever USB cable is handy.)
5.) I was driving around in Colorado in a rental car soon after I got the BB and before I got a 12v charger. Reception faded in and out, and the battery got dangerously low by the afternoon because it had to work so hard to find a signal. If I'd thought about it, I probably could have charged the BB with my laptop and the USB cable. That would have saved me some aggravation. I didn't need the laptop while I was on the road, and the BlackBerry gave me Internet access, access to Outlook, and directions. That was definitely higher on the priority list than a laptop battery.

Re: The DOCKEY coming this month for BlackBerry!

Every other day

Half and half

tethering

5) Share an experience relating how the lack of charging and thus low battery impacted your day.
I was unable to get in contact with my wife to let her know I didn't need a ride, which would have saved her a 60 mile drive roundtrip.

Re: The DOCKEY coming this month for BlackBerry!

1) Every Day and typically overnight
2) typically charge it with my laptop
3) one, just the long annoying one that came with my pearl
4) updating the videos, apps and music on my pearl several times a week
5) The battery on my pearl is to the point where it drains easily and I am constantly getting important sms and mms messages throughout the day. Several times while out at night the battery has drained and I have missed some important messages. I really need a more portable charger to have with me while I'm out!

Re: The DOCKEY coming this month for BlackBerry!

1) How often do you charge your BlackBerry?
I'm suprised it's not charging right now...

2) PC/notebook or AC charging adapter, which do you charge your BlackBerry with most?
I use the AC if possible but more often than not it's sucking the life out of my laptop via USB.

3) How many USB cables do you currently own?
Just the one... which get's forgotten when switching bags.

4) Besides charging & syncing, what other uses have you found for your BlackBerry USB cable?
Transfering files counts as syncing I suppose...

5) Share an experience relating how the lack of charging and thus low battery impacted your day.
Having to turn the device OFF (GASP!) while not home to make sure I have enough battery power to make a call should my car break down or something...

Re: The DOCKEY coming this month for BlackBerry!

1) Every night.
2) AC charging adapter mostly at night, USB during the days.
3) 10! (many small peripherals and some external drives)
4) Transferring media files to BlackBerry's 4GB MicroSD.
5) Knowing the battery is low and having to shut down the BB to avoid losing power completely is always a hassle. I try not to let it happen but sometimes I still manage to forget to charge.
