Just wanted to post an after mod story.
The inductive charging works great especially on my wifes N900 with a broken USB.
The downside is that since I am wired direct to the base of the battery contacts I am bypassing the whole charging system; I often reboot the phone after undocking in the morning to get an accurate battery reading.
I run a double scud battery and I never have problem charging overnight and a few times got 80% from nearly flat after just a few hours.
One big upside to bypassing internal charging logic is I never get the dead battery makes phone unchangeable.
Anyone else using the touchstone system I am curious if the palm 12v jack actually works with the inductive touchstone puck for car charging?
