The kickstand works vertically and horizontally. You can charge it while it's used vertically. There will be a dock that will allow horizontal charging similar to the droid/droid2. A lot of you mention location of the card slots being design flaws but in order to make the phones as slim as they do they have to make decisions on the location of components, ports and slots. I'm unsure why you're having to remove your memory card so much? Are the write speeds on a direct card reader significantly faster?
