[Q] Has Samsung delivered ANY of their promised accessories?

---

Have they?

Home dock, car dock, entended power case, TV out cable - I see none of those promised accessories, which is especially annoying since the docks were included in the advertisement, and part of the reason why I bought this phone.

Is this something that Samsung does on a often basis? Should I just forget about getting any official Samsung accessories (for any future phone release by Samsung)?

I have a thread about this elsewhere. The short answer is. No they have not. In fact they have made them obsolete before they even went on sale.

I emailed support about them and they told me Samsung do not produce these and they are available from third party retailers. I emailed back their advert and they expressed surprise and said they would contact head office S/Kor. Never heard anything since....

My order for an extended battery pack and desk dock has been put back twice.

I just find lots of retailers have either removed the listing altogether, or list it as 'discontinued' when I haven't heard of a single one shipping anywhere.

I'm really pissed off about this false advertising.

They sold millions of these phones, and for once I actually wanted to buy official docs for them so they fitted properly and the power plug clipped in for you instead of messing about with a separate cable.

Great. I guess it's time to give up all hopes.

Btw, it seems like the desk home app doesn't work on froyo. I keep getting force close, and I can no longer find it on the market.

I honestly just don't get it. with the number of phones they've sold they would have made fortune on these accessories.

There may have been insufficient preorders. Remember, most resellers also carry their own accessories which are similar.

I have yet to see a single home dock that is remotely similar.

Implement support for it though, and they will come...

Samsung really should be sued for false advertizing. Showing Apps and Accessories that still do not exist half way during the products life cycle is a farce of epic proportions. I wish someone would just start a class action already.
