The dock is extremely expensive for its sparse functions and the game pronotion is going already without the need to buy anything. Great job, Sony.

I thought the same thing logseman...you still have to hook it up to a stereo so I don't really see too much of a point.

How much is it mate?

20 euro in Amazon.de, plus postage. It is stylish, but such a price is excessive.

You do get a charger with it. Still a bit expensive especially since it won't work when you use a case

i would have bought it if it had an HDMI out

I got the Multimedia Dock and I just love it

I'm tempted in the dock but there is no way on earth it's worth the money! cheapest i've seen it in the UK is £17.99 (from sites i've heard of)

It list eternal legacy but I don't see it in the store?

No, when you connect the Xplay to the dock you can use the phone speakers if you want.
I have the dock and I use it for having the Xplay as alarm clock, really useful.

I can see this being useful say if you're on a long journey and you can stick your phone in the dock and watch a movie or play a game (connect up a wiimote and you're sorted)
Tempted by this. Price however not so much

Heh yes, but my N64oid doesn't let me map the touch pads. Can't play Orcarina of time without the C buttons

For a lot of games it works to map some C buttons and use the touch screen for the less used c buttons. N64oid can display only the C buttons on the touch screen if you want (in the lower right corner even).

So that's about $30 US? Not bad considering the dock itself is $30 on Amazon in the US already. Guess I'll wait for this pack... it is coming to the States, right?

Was like $60ish here in Japan but I love docks and happy I got this one. Works great as an alarm

How are you guys handling the analog for n64oid.... Us it possible to map it to our analog pads?
Sorry if it seems random I was trying to quote the above quote but I'm new to this app haha.

I just started using it right now. I mapped the Dpad controls to the Dpad, just left the analog on screen.
c buttons are CL-Vol Up, CU-Vol Down, CR-Triangle, CD-Square
Z button is Select. everything else is the usual.

If this thing had speakers, it would be on a delivery van heading here.
But I'm not buying a pretty "charger".

Invoking ideas for use of an old Nokia phone

Hey all,
I've an old Nokia 5130 express music phone, almost new condition.
But it went faulty due to simultaneous failure of some 2 or 3 ICs. The cost involved was too much, so it's kept unused since a long time.
Any ideas how out can be put to use, any ideas are welcome for example- Converting it into a webcam(is possible, with links)
Or
Screen used for some display of pics.
Please link to procedure too, if possible.
Keep your thoughts pouring

Nokias are indestructible right? Use it as a sledgehammer! That'll break that cinder block in your back yard!

Zombie head smasher would have been a great idea, but alas mine is an express music phone not the 3310.
I would get one 3310, just in order to prepare myself for the zombie apocalypse.
Any other utilitarian idea?

You could use it as action camera, like sticking it onto the dashboard and wait for accident to happen and sh*t, then post it on YouTube. 500k likes for sure.

Well whatever you do don't drop it like I did with mine.

I use my old Nokia 5310 as an alarm clock since Android can't have an alarm go off when the phone is off....
(stupid that a "smartphone" can't be "smart" enough to have the alarm work if the phone is off but a "feature" phone can.... )

I had one. The quality is kind of so-so (and so is the mouse) but if you're not typing much this is a pretty good deal considering it's new in the box.
I'd say if you are going to use the keyboard a lot, get the Logitech.

I've got the Motorola keyboard/mouse combo, the mouse is ok and the keyboard is just fine. I reckon if anyone is typing so much that the keyboard becomes a problem then a tablet isn't the best thing to be using.

I was considering this, but I prefer a case with keyboard attached to it so I don't have to carry 2 "separate" devices.

I like that design/style also and have the Logitech Ultraslim for my iPad
(http://www.amazon.com/Logitech-Ultr...420868&sr=8-1&keywords=logitech+keyboard+slim)
and just picked up a Transformer Infinity with the dock.
However, I don't think a quality case that would fit the Nexus 7 could include a keyboard I'd find useful for lengthy periods of time due to the size of the tablet.

Has anyone received this yet?

I got some like the combo mentioned above but I found the keyboard way too small to be viable.

For those of you interested in seeing the controller work with the nexus 7 I have a video here. The intent of the video is to show it used for gaming but this show you that it works rather well.

I also do an unboxing and overview video of the keyboard but this is with the xoom (originally what it was purchased for) a while ago.

Does anyone know what the key next to GMail is supposed to do? It's the 3 horizontal parallel lines key.
Thanks!
Edit: I think it is the menu key, but it doesn't work for me. Someone has a clue about this?

Review: InfiniApps Magnet Car Mount

Got this a few days ago for $30 on ebay and love it. I honestly couldn't go with anything other than magnetic - it's so easy and convenient to just quickly sit your phone against the mount or pull it back for texting at a light, etc. There really isn't much to say since the concept is pretty simple. The suction base works well on my textured dash and the magnet grips well. I haven't used it on a race track or anything but I don't take corners or always accelerate super slow either and the phone never budges. It's also great that the dock works with any phone so if you share your car or get a new device, you don't have to change mounts or have more than one. The only way it could be improved is if it had wireless charging built in too (though for verizon versions this wouldn't help most). But the phones battery is good enough that it shouldn't need to be plugged in for any trips that aren't very long anyways.
Also, I recommend the free app "IntelliScreen" with this. The app makes it so the screen won't timeout when certain apps are up on the screen (and it does some other stuff too). I made it so the music and maps app don't timeout so that I don't have to constantly hit the screen button while driving to see and control things.

I'm not positive but when the phone is put around half an inch from it or so, it easily sticks to the mount. It's not strong enough where it's difficult to pull off, but I actually believe I could go to a race track and record video from my phone's camera while it is on the mount and not have any problems with it moving/falling. I had seen the imagnet at first on amazon and was going to get that, but this one doesn't look like it's an iphone accessory so I won't have people asking/thinking I have an iphone that I give rides to, if I don't put my phone on it.

I didn't think of the spen because I don't ever really use it. I just tried it out and it doesn't work where the magnet is. However, it's so quick to take it off the mount and imo it's a lot more convenient to write/draw on it in your hand, so it shouldn't be a problem for a lot of people if not most. Navigation and everything else still works though.
I will also get a picture of the phone on the mount tonight.

[Q] Headphones not working.

So, I got my HTC One 3 days ago now, and it's amazing. I'm in love!
I switched from an old HTC Desire Z which was just getting too slow to do anything, and I don't regret switching at all!
There's only one thing that really annoys me.
The HTC One came with in-ear headphones, whereas the ones from my old phone, are standard headphones, or whatever they're called.
So naturally, I figured I'd just use my old ones. However, they don't work. The plugs appear to be identical. (Despite the red rings on the ones from the One.)

I should probably note that the in-ear headphones works fine, although they're uncomfortable.

Did your old ones are working at other devices? Because my HTC One accept all headphones.

Already tried that, nothing happens.

I have the same problem with my Klipsch s4i, they work fine with my PC, Laptop and iPod. Phone just does not detected a headset when they are plugged in. Stock headset works, so do my Razer Electra. Funny thing is my brothers Klipsch s4 even work yet my s4i don't.
I've given up at this point but will keep eye on this thread and hope you find a solution to the problem.

I'm super glad to know that I'm not the only one with that problem! However it still sucks that we don't have a solution.
I'll try to drop by the local phone store tomorrow to hear if they have any ideas.

sorry, i posted but then after going back to read OPs question, i think i should start my own thread....

Okay it seems as though my headphones are the culprit, bending the wire at the top of the jack makes the phone detect them so it's a loose wire, once detected they seem to work fine.
