[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] sola fide:
Update Nov 26, 2012:

I apologize that I got everyone's hopes up about these products being available through Samsung and I'm upset that this is all happening. However, I'm more upset that I was either misled by Samsung with wrong product information or that the products do indeed exist and are just sitting in boxes in a warehouse. Either way, I'm taking it upon myself to take this as far as I need too for verification that these items are not in the possession of Samsung. I'm still convinced that the Associate I talked to on Nov 13th was knowledgeable and understood what he was relaying back to me and had indeed found the products Google was previously selling. When an individual confirms multiple times the phone I have, the accessories' make, model, wording, and pricing, and even calculates the shipping and total price for both products - it has me very curious as to how he found them.

SO...I called Samsung again today and was on the phone for an hour and a half explaining the situation, the wording, the confirmation call from Google, etc to an Associate. After I'm sure I exhausted her...she admitted she could not help me any further I asked to go up the next level. I told her I'm willing to go as high as Samsung will let me to find out why I was quoted pricing with items that matched - verbatim - what Google gave me for my phone. I've left a voice-mail with the Samsung Accessories Supervisor and took down his name and extension so that if I do not receive a call within 48 hours (standard business etiqute in my opinion) I'll be calling again.

At the very least I owe it to this community to do my due diligence and inquire information as hard as I can (legally, professionally, and politely) to work towards a true answer on all of this.

Again I apologize that I provided information that led to some anticipated excitement only to result in frustration. I'll update with any information I'm able to get.

Original Post from October 31, 2012

Just last Thursday I saw the vehicle dock with Pogo pins (for the GSM GN) was available in the Google Play Store. Being the stupid me I decided to sleep on it and buy it later or put it on my Christmas list. I should have known with the upcoming Nexus 4 announcement - that something would change...and it did. All three docks (Vehicle Dock with pogo pins, Portrait Desk Dock with USB charging, and Landscape Desk Dock with pogo pins) are no longer sold through Google Play.

I talked to Google Play Device customer support today for 30 minutes getting as much information on it as possible. (And I must say the customer support was amazing). Here is was I was told from the rep (which could or could not be correct)

All Docks and Vehicle mounts were sent back to Samsung after Monday's announcement. (She had to put me on hold to search around for this information)

Samsung should still be selling the Vehcile mount with the pogo pins even though it's not listed on their website (at least I can't find it)

Samsung should also have the desktop dock with the pogo pins (couldn't find that on their website either but I didn't spend too much time by this piont)

The Google Rep gave me a number to call at Samsung (Not sure who will be on the other end) who she says should be able to sell me these devices if I wanted them. I'm going to probably call them tomorrow, don't have time today, and see what all I can find out.

If anyone else is interested in the phone number that the Google Play Rep gave me PM me and I'd be glad to send it to you.

If anyone has any stores they come across that are selling these two docks (Vehicle and Desk dock with pogo pins), and not the crappy USB docking, please post them.

I'll post any updates that I find out on this in case other are interested just like me. I was really hoping for some great Christmas Presents so I didn't have to spend it out of pocket. ;)
