FYI, boxwave is now selling accessories for the Touch Cruise in the US. www.boxwave.com. Looks like they've got a cradle and some other accessories. I'm ordering my cradle now 8).

Nice spot. Thanks for the info. I fancy the cradle, the 3.5mm headset adaptor and the pair of retractable charge and charge/sync cables.
When you get the cradle could you please post back specifically on the power supply. It doesn't look like it from the pictures but there's just a possibility that the power brick is physically designed to be international, i.e. the prongs that plug into the wall socket are on a separate mounting so that they can be swapped for UK, continental Europe or other plug configurations (e.g. PalmOne do this). The spec on the site does at least confirm it is a universal voltage supply but the physical plug compatibility is a big issue.
If the adaptor is only supplied with a fixed US configuration then could you please confirm that the input voltage, current and tip polarity are pretty clear from the instructions or labelling on the cradle itself so that I know it will be easy to correctly set up a universal supply brick.
Thanks.

I think the PS is for the US, but they also sell international adapter kits. I think they've even got a bundle that include the cradle and the international kits.

I got the leather sleeve. It is very nice...top quality. The soft reset button is somewhat covered by the leather...but not enough that it can't be used. That aside, it really is like a glove. You really done even notice it unless you have the belt clip attached.
