Nexus One Car Dock

[Koolcamvids]

Hope the galaxy nexus has one of these! Looks the bee's knees

[URPREY]

@Koolcamvids me too! Can't wait to get my Galaxy Nexus

[starlight219]

is you say navigate to instead of directions to, it will save you a couple of steps....

[royalsego]

where is this for the nexus s?!?! jesus christ

[slpkn09]

@royalsego I know, they even made a dock for the Nexus One, but you wont find shit for the Nexus S. Come on Samsung!!!

[URPREY]

@philrandy I've never been to Edgewater. I've been to Clay City many times though

[Mickieshelton]

Great vid...this will come in handy. I definitely like having my N1 mounted.

[jrai30]

Excellent video. Do I have to remove the case before install it on the dock ? If so, its a kind of hassle..

[URPREY]

@jrai30 most definitely. It's a snug fit.

[groundhabit]

DO YOU LIVE IN FLORIDA ?

[URPREY]

@groundhabit Kentucky.

[groundhabit]

@URPREY the reason i ask is because we have a dixie hwy near where i stay ...

[URPREY]

@groundhabit it's the same highway. I can drive on Dixie Highway all the way to Florida from Kentucky :-)

[spsmyth]

Important Google Navigation tip; Say "Navigate to Subway on Dixie Hiway" instead of "Find..." and Navigation will come up instead of Maps dismissing all of the layers of complexity on getting to Navigation in the first place.

[13Widow13]

Thanx for the great "how to" & "what you CAN do" vid, I have 1 Nexus, 2nd coming today w car dock, wanted to know the basics and you delivered.

Thanx again

[URPREY]

@13Widow13 thanks for watching! Appreciate the kind words

[laaksomommy]

Will the Adapter cord/ plug charger that came with the phone, work with the car dock? Meaning if i wanted to use it like the desktop dock?

[URPREY]

@laaksomommy Yes it does. Works great as a desktop stand also

[digitalb0y]

Thanks for the video! I'm ordering my N1 tonight and have been trying to decide if I need the dock too. Nice to see such a complete video to help me make the decision. Great to see the Car Home app too.

[racker79]

how do you get the sound form the nexus one to the car raidio, I guess some kind of bluethough device which plung into the auidio in in on your car sterio?

[URPREY]

@racker79 As I mentioned below in the comments, I use a Motorola T605 bluetooth car kit to transfer the audio from my Nexus One to my car stereo.

[x3l3m3n7alx7yp3xsx]

@racker79 your car must have an aux in port. get a 3.5 to 3.5 and plug it in the nexus.

[stacattos]

Ur juice must drain so fast with that settings

[URPREY]

@stacattos I have no idea what you mean

[DamiensCain]

@stacattos It would if the dock wasn't also a charger.

@URPREY You really didn't get that?

[digitalb0y]

@stacattos It includes a charger, how would it "drain juice"?

[estanteriax]

@digitalb0y I meant if they were maintained when not connected to a charger;)

[randall814]

GM F-Bodies for the mother fucking win.

[xCWATx]

When the Nexus One is mounted in the Car Dock, does the mount cover the 3.5mm jack on the phone itself?

[URPREY]

@xCWATx no it's still accessible

[mikecadelago]

Thanks for posting this! Very informative

[Kwin2006]

Does the car dock accept N1s with cases?

[URPREY]

@Kwin2006 No, it is a very snug fit

[Chowder1022]

you should make a vid about that car kit cuz i like it, but i don't know what it is, or how to get it. nice vid too.

[URPREY]

@Chowder1022 It's a Motorola T605 car kit. There's honestly not much to show you or I would do a video. Everything except the small control panel is hidden from view.

[shishiniayass]

i watch many videos of yours because of this one, you did a great job!! i like that dock but i want to ask you do you like it still after one month?

i don't understand how to connect it with car speakers .i have an old car(sonata 2004)

[URPREY]

@shishiniayass thanks! Still loving the dock after several months. I have a bluetooth car kit that is hooked up via an adapter into my 2004 Grand Prix's stereo.

[ultimo119]

Bill, excellent video. The detail you go into really makes this car dock a must have if I get a Nexus One. It's videos like these that make me want to get one!

[Mgorman87]

When you do the voice search, is it using your car kit microphone or is it picking it up from the phone mic?

[URPREY]

@Mgorman87 the phone mic

[justkillen07]

what kind of car is that?

[URPREY]

@justkillen07 04 Grand Prix CompG

[surbahns]

Which widget are you using to listen to podcats like gdgt in the video?

[URPREY]

@surbahns that is the widget for BeyondPod.

[HotTorch26]

Good work. does the dock alow you to rotate the phone from side to side?

[URPREY]

@HotTorch26 Yes it can rotate about 270 degrees as well as swivel. The arm also moves up and down.

[dougdougiedouglas]

Good work buddy, quality stuff. I live in NYC so I don't drive but I'm renting a car next month for a weekend and I'm actually going to buy this for that trip alone -- thanks in part to the solid work you did.

[URPREY]

@dougdougiedouglas thank you. Your comment made my day.

[jillia1031]

nice video, could you pls give comment on the quality of Bluetooth handsfree?

that's the point I care about.

[URPREY]

@jillia1031 it works pretty well for a car speakerphone but don't expect miracles. I don't use it because I have a built-in car kit but it will be fine for most people.

[bagitusa]

Nice review. Just what I wanted to see before I ordered one. Thanks!

[MrBrotato]

@6:53 you say the dock has no 3.5mm jack. But doesn't it leave the phone's jack exposed so you can still use it?

[URPREY]

@MrBrotato Correct, but many people don't want to have to plug anything else in once they dock their phone so it's a minor annoyance. I use A2DP so it doesn't bother me.

[bhodge3]

@URPREY Not happy about the absence of a 3.5mm on the actual dock. Would have traded that for the built in speakers in a heart beat.

[djnajma]

What app are using to play the audio from ur phone?

[URPREY]

@djnajma I use BeyondPod to download podcast directly to the phone and to play them

[justdot]

how did you have the audio connected to your stereo?

[URPREY]

@justdot I have a Motorola T605 Bluetooth car kit.

[kaenbanet]

You live close to my thats funny, i love my nexus one, would you say that the car dock is worth the money, also if it had a case on it to where the connectors were able to touch would it still work?

[URPREY]

@kaenbanet It was absolutely worth the money for me. It's too tight a fit for the N1 with a case to fit at all. I carry mine naked :-)

[bandocage]

can u fit the phone with a skin in the dock?!

[URPREY]

@bandocage it's a pretty tight fit so an invisible shield might work, but a gel skin definitely won't.

[T4ShowVideos]

I may get one.

[gvegas864]

Can I get a raise so I can buy an N1 and a car dock?

[URPREY]

@gvegas864 Let me see what I can do for that

[TheAppleJunkies101]

Very nice overview Youre the reason I got the N1 and now youre the reason Im getting the car dock sweet!!!

[lance752]

nice video thanks ! can't wait to get mine

[FishDS9]

Great unboxing. Loved seeing the N1 in use in the car. Can't wait for some FireHawk footage from the track.
