Verzion 6700 - Alternative Charging methods?

[RichTJ99]

Hi,

I have a broken 6700 - the USB port was apparently shoved into the unit to the point that it cant sync or charge. This was given to me to play with. It can work when another charged battery is placed inside it.

I was also given the refurb replacement that my wife wants to use as her 700w replacement phone (I bought both for 70). The refurb was never used (the woman bought a blackberry).

Anyway, I have been using the broken 6700 was a wifi device in the house (sits next to my bed), but of course the battery does die over time. I have been stealing my wifes battery (she isnt happy about the 'lousy' battery life - due to me).

I looked on ebay & was hoping to find a charger that would allow you to put the battery inito the charger & plug the whole thing into the wall

(Very similar to this concept): http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...m=110267130459 For my camera - this is just an example.

The Treo 700wx desktop charger has a spot for a spare battery to charge at the same time as charging the phone. I am hoping to find some sort of solution.

The only option I have now is the battery swap (which she isnt liking to much).

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Rich
