The dock is wireless. Nothing to plug in when you use it.

Inductive charging

I just ordered my supplies.. even if I don't get a tablet I can sell them to someone on here at cost, or even a small profit on eBay.

It tried to do the same for me.. Right after I put in my CC info it removed the discount, so I had to re-add the discount code. My order total was the discounted amount.

Probably going to take an hour on hold to get this fixed. It removed the extra coupon code of SAVE30HP from my order. Should have been 165 and now it was 209.19

No because as far as I know, the energizer pads need contact.

The touchstone can work with your case still on.

LoL now I have three on order from the small biz site. Pray this goes through. If I'm swimming in touchpads I'll keep two for myself and sell the rest at cost. I hope someone can return the favor if I get burned instead....

Mother fuckers the sales tax amount is not the same for 165 as it is for 195 obviously the tech support person is not from the US or this would not be an argument.

Well after phone call and hold time of a total of 59min and 32sec and teaching the person on the other end of the line that tax is calculated as a percentage of the final cost and not as a standard value I am receiving my credit of $32.03. Seriously who would of thought that maybe the customer service people know how the bills are actually calculated.
