Default Charging dock/cradle

I currently have a htc aria using a charging cradle to charge my phone when I'm home and about to get an inspire soon and was wondering if anyone has tried a this charging cradle for their inspire. I assume the desire hd and the inspire have the exact location for the usb port so it should fit fine? I'm trying to get the same cradle as my aria that would fit the inspire when I get it since the one I have for the aria works great.

Heres what I was looking at from eBay:

I wonder if the phone will fit in that cradle if you have a case.....say the otterbox commuter.

Here's two photos I just took ... I unpackaged it. I don't like the feel of sliding the device into it, gives me the eebie jeebies hearing the sound. I'm afraid if I bump it that it'll break the usb port inside my phone

Honestly it's what I'd expect for $18 from HKG... I won't use it, I'm going to return it to Amazon. It's snug side to side, but you really have to get it just right to slide down onto the USB adaptor. This is common with any aftermarket dock, and always concerns me that sliding it on and off might damage after a while.

It'd be nice if it were a little better quality, but oh well. I don't like it, and won't be using it.

I have the Zagg invisible shield on the phone. I like it because of the ease of getting replacements if the device is replaced or if I have any issues with it. Got it at best buy for $20, but used a 12% off coupon and a $5 rewardzone certificate, so came in at about $12, which I think you can do better on eBay\Zagg.com lol... I just have instant gratification disorder, hehe
