Some kid posted this idea about a month after you, gave it a misleading title and grabbed about 20k more views than you. People are commenting about how brilliant he and "his" idea was... I let 'em know you already had this floatin' on youtube a month before he posted "his" discovery.
Great vid tho', I appreciate it. Very nifty idea with the plastic too.
@NetteFraulein I've seen it more than a few times on youtube over the years... someone puts up a useful, clever vid and then someone else plagiarizes it and slyly takes the kudos and credit for it.
I can't speak for Mikey but if that was the case with me then, yeah, I admit it... I'd care and plenty of others would too. Make sense? I'd be at the very least somewhat interested if someone passed that info along to me.
@makemehavefun thats true... but i think in this case, the kid just happened to make the same discovery about his phone and made a video about it too. I would be true plagiarism if he made the same plastic piece kludge of a mount, but the kid made it out of a box... by any rate, the only reason i've seen this video is because you posted his name on the kids video... this one was made way better.
This is how motorola has designed the phone to work. Most non-intrusive docks use magnets, Motorola and others have used magnets in electronic equipment to detect if the radio/mp3 player is docked.
With the first simple design, there is not. But the way it sits, it didn't need one.
On the second one I made for a friend, it is more upright. I cut a slot in the plastic before I removed the protective sheeting, to accomodate the charger.
awsome.....Drooid

@0oWGAo0 Yes, if you connect your cable to the charger block or to a USB port.

Nice to know how the magnet works, but the only problem is that you can't charge it on your stand.

does the magnet effect the phone in the long run?

No the magnet does not affect the phone.
