Default Re: Orb now available

PureMobile (Canadian mobile accessories store) tweeted today that they're expecting the orbs to be in stock in March. I'm guessing Google Play Canada will be getting their stock the same time if not sooner.

I just hope that the magnets will be strong enough the hold the phone with a thin case in place. I'm rocking a diztronic TPU and just ordered the hybrid fusion

Default Re: Orb now available

Please excuse my ignorance - how is this more convenient than a regular charger? You still need to plug in the orb to the wall socket when you want to charge the phone, don't you? So isn't the orb really just a fancy replacement of the micro usb plug, without any real added value?
