Thumbs up Re: Using XV6700 cradle with TP2

-- SO, take a wire cutter, fingernail cliper, pair of scissors, WHATEVER you have and cut off that little nub!

Voila! The TP2 now snaps right into the cradle & charges or syncs like it should! And, you can still drop the XV6700 in there as you always have. That little nub was just an added measure of support for the phone & holds no other functionality.

I don't have pics of mine cradle, as I'm work right now. But, I woke up this morning, made the mod, tested it myself as I ran out the door for work. It works perfectly! AND you can get these chargers all over the web for $5!!!

I didn't get a chance to check and see is if the actual battery fits in the spare battery slot on the backside. I'll check this evening. But, if anyone reading this can check & post their findings, that would be helpful.

I've attached a stock image to show the nub that show be removed.

You rock. Brilliant!
