Desktop Charger v. false advertising

[SoulkeepHL]

Just got a Q and am slowly acquiring the necessary accessories (travel charger, etc), so when my phone went "Critical Battery Level!" at lunch, I figured I'd swing by best buy and pick up a desktop charger for work.

So i get to Best Buy, buy the "Q Desktop Charger" (verbatim) made by Motorola, get back to work, unbox the "Desktop Charger" and go to plug it in. But wait, there aren't any cables. Fuckers at best buy must have restocked a returned item. So I read the manual and read "Ability to charge ..... using an AC power supply (sold separately). Both data and charging capabilities .... using a mini-USB data cable (solk separately)."

Fuckers at Motorola are selling a desktop charger which doesn't actually function as anything other than a hunk of plastic to hold your Q upright out of the box. And no where on the box does it say anything about requiring a separately purchased min-USB or AC adapter separately. This will piss me off to no end.

whine whine whine, bitch bitch bitch.

this isn't blogmay, maybe you should just look at what you are getting before you buy it next time.

wow, thats really cheaping out on motos end. Id be pissed if that happend.

[RazorWind]

That's just... Stupid.

Maybe they figure you'll use the AC adapter that comes with the phone?

[Aseras]

well at least now you can return it and let some other schmuch figure it out and make a thread about it

[CeleronDude]

if this really happened then i'll be avoiding motorola from now on. That's damn shady.

[japroach]

Yeah that blows, but you dont have a single mini usb cable?

I think I have at least 6 laying around. One has come with every camera and most mp3 players that we have bought.

You're supposed to use your normal charger cable with that.

And if you had read the contents of the box in the store, you'd have realized this.
