You're probably right on the Touch + Wall together. But for the fun of
it, I peaked at Sonos charging cradles. Two models exists CC100 & CC200
(direct links to Sonos site):
- 'Sonos Charging Cradle 200, with AC Adapter (CC200) - $39.99'
(http://www.sonos.com/whattobuy/accessories/cc200/default.aspx)
- 'Sonos Charging Cradle 100 (CC100) - $39.99'
(http://www.sonos.com/whattobuy/accessories/cc100/)
- 'AC Adapter 100 (for CC100) - $19.99'
(http://www.sonos.com/whattobuy/accessories/adapter/)
>From the 'CC100 Setup Guide (PDF)'
(http://www.sonos.com/uploadedFiles/Get_Support/Documentation/Sonos_Cradle_Setup_Guide.pdf),
it looks to be wall mountable (not flush to wall though). The CC200
price even includes the AC adapter.
Wouldn't be hard to make a long list of other products, Logitech or
not, below $100. But from my point of view, $99.99 is a rip-off (3rd
degree). For now I'll leave this thread alone, unless somebody comes
with a defense of Logitech keeping it $99.99. If it makes sense I'll
concede defeat :o My guess is that Logitech just wants the thread to
wither down in forum history. I'll let it do that if it leaves with the
conclusion that this is a rip-off price, however one spins it. May ease
the sour taste, if I end up buying this object :rolleyes:
