Google has already released a spare battery and a desktop dock, which we reviewed, for the Nexus One. There was talk when the Nexus One was released of rumors of both the desktop dock as well as a car dock. Well, the car dock is now officially available for order!

As we discussed in the Desktop Dock review, the three dock connector pins on the bottom of the device allow it to be charged simply by contact without having to plug in the micro USB cable, which allows for easy insertion and removal from the desktop dock.

Now, the official Nexus One updates blog is reporting that the Car Dock is now available for purchase online as well from the Google Phone site.

  • Charges the battery (via an included 12V charger)
  • Has built-in speakers and volume controls
  • Loads the Car Home application upon docking
  • Can be stuck to the windshield or dashboard (using an included adhesive disc)

More details on the Car Dock can be found in the Car Dock Users Guide PDF. It is available direct from Google for $55, not including shipping.

    I ordered one of these and can’t wait to get it to review. I will be comparing it to the Tomtom Car Kit for iPhone.

    I have also ordered one and it should be arriving shortly. I am going to be reviewing it as part of the Nexus One Review we are doing over at JAMM. I am also ver excited about this, as the iPod Touch/iPhone 3G dock I have in the car now works (its a holder only) but it is chipping the rubberized paint on the lower left coner of the device and is difficult to get in and out. This will be much better solution and shouldn’t booger up the device.

    Thanks for the heads up, Thomas!
