My USB charger in the car is also 500ma and it simply can't keep up with the draw when using the sprint navigation program while driving. It's not a crazy drain, but after 90 minutes of gps use, I'd lost about 20% of my battery even though it was plugged in to the 500ma charger. I see there are 1000ma usb chargers that can work with a car outlet. Has anyone tried one of these? Is it safe to assume that the touch pro can charge faster with a 1000ma charger? Or am I being a naughty monkey for using that 1000ma charger with the touch pro in the first place?

I'm an Architect so I don't know much about electronics so any help is greatly appreciated.

See ya.
If you use GPS, BT and 3G the needed current will exceed 1000mA.

I'm using the HTC 2000mA car charger HDC 02. It will do for all your mobile needs. Use Google to find or this link (very cheap?!) http://www.netimes.com/shop/htc-dopo...-c-80_422.html

Hey JeeVee, Did you order that charging dock from this site by any chance?

It look's pretty solid for $16 was just curious how much you have ordered from this site and how they are to deal with and their quality? Cheap isn't always the best route! lol.

I think I read that this one below actually is already a 2000 capacity charger, just an FYI. This seems like the best deal around, and it looks that it fits nicely. I would just be putting on some kind of rubber-band or something, because it appears that it only holds onto the phone by the port.

i bought this case.. one flaw is that the touch screen now has the recessed affect now .... so it is kinda tough to tap on cornor keys ,... but the feel of it is great... gives awesome grip and u never have to worry about phone dropping out of your hands.. i am just bumbed that i dont think i can use a desktop charger with this case

is it me, or do these docks look like they have the wrong usb connector on them, they don't use the same mini usb like the mogul and touch do, which is the standard mini usb which is not what the touch pro uses

edit: ok, nevermind, i never tried the mini usb since the default cable looked different
