Accessories Rant.

Quick Rant:

Where the heck are all the dang HTC Evo Accessories!?!?

Where is my Made for my Phone Car Dock?
Why don't I have a cool case? Otterbox wtf is taking you so long to make my case?!?
How come my HDMI Cable for my Phone does not work for my TV? HTC You need to get me a dang OTA Update fix on this ASAP.

Also I would like some sort of Dock not made by Sedio and it needs to look half way cool.

The dock needs to have 3 features.. It needs to charge my phone, and it needs to be able to have an HDMI input / output on the back of it so I can use an HDMI to HDMI cable on it and connect it to my TV. It also needs a USB Port so I can connect the Dock to my PC if need be.

So why are these not being made? Where is all the crap that was supposed to be released for the phone? Its already pretty much the middle of July over a month since its release!

GIVE ME STUFF!

Seidio is all I found but still no docks. The Droid accessories were from Motorola directly afaik so HTC is dropping the ball on this one. I feel your pain.

Right there with you, guys. I can't believe there is such a lag for good accessories for this phone?

Sounds like most people think that the Evo is going to fail and there will not be such a high demand for things for the phone.

I know Otterbox was not even considering making an Evo case at the time until all the request started pouring in.

Think it is going to fail? Based on what? Android phones are here to stay, not sure why anyone would think the EVO would not be around to stay.

As a former BB user, there is no way I can go backwards after having a phone like this now.

I cant remember what I was reading to be honest. But it had something to do with the Evo being overlooked by the end of the year.

Relax, a post on "cooltechzone.com" dated June 1 indicated that a "leaked Best Buy document" suggested that the car kit & media dock would be available at the "end of July". I've been into the stores inquiring, and they look at me like I have 3 heads. Figures the zombies in the stores wouldn't have a clue.

Over on the Android Forums: Some guy contacted HTC (Not sure if this is true, but he posted this.) and he was inquiring about the car kit. HTC Told him they are aware of the Leaked Best Buy Ad, but have no plans on making the Car kit.... ..... ............. .......

Local Sprint store has no idea about any accessories - no shock there. I really wish HTC would get their act in gear and support the phone they told us we *had* to have.

^^ True That my friend!

Seen this on ebay gonna steal the photo in case the auction gets sold.

Looks pretty nice: But I don't like the suction cup thing.
I would rather buy a Cupholder type.

Looks like it was made for the iPhone but its still pretty nice looking.

On ebay I searched for HTC Evo Car Mount:
It was listed as "DC IN CAR MOUNT STAND HOLDER DOCK for SPRINT HTC EVO 4G"

Also I have heard good things about ProClipUSA.com
They make a special mount for your car (its car specific) and some of the Evo users are just using the iPhone Mount Adaptor for the Clip.

They say it works perfect. So I don't know.. We have options I guess. Just not the Options I was hoping for lol!!
