Check out the Review, then Leave a Comment for your chance to win an iGrip Car Charging Dock for the BlackBerry Torch! We're giving away 1 a day for 30 days!
This is probably one of the coolest BlackBerry accessories I've tested out so far. The iGrip car charging dock for the Torch 9800 mounts to the windshield or dash in your car and lets you easily drop in your Torch so you can use a navigation app on the go. I fired up AT&T Navigator while my Torch was in the dock and I have to say its just as good (if not better) than having a separate GPS unit. The dock is totally solid and stays secure so you don't have to worry about it dropping off the window. I really like the latch that secures down over the Torch once inserted - it ensures the phone is held secure whether used in landscape or portrait mode. When you get to wherever you're going, just pull your device out and take it with you. The video above is a bit of hand-on with the dock as well as a bit of in-car action to see just how it works. As of right now the iGrip BlackBerry Torch charging dock is only available via Smartphone Experts, so click on over to learn more and pick one up at ShopCrackBerry.com today!
Contest: We're Giving Away 1 iGrip Torch Cradle a Day for 30 Days! So the good great completely awesome folks at iGrip have hooked up a wicked contest for CrackBerry Nation. If you're a BlackBerry Torch owner living in the USA and want a chance at winning an iGrip Cradle for the Torch along with a BlackBerry Car Charger, then all you need to do is leave a comment to this blog post (drop in some nice comments about why you want this bad boy while you're at it!).

iGrip Car Charging Dock for the BlackBerry Torch 9800 Photos
mjth61 Sep 15, 2010 at 11:31 pm
This is a product that I could really use. I have the desktop cradle and it is great and I think this cradle just one ups it. Besides, it's my turn to win something, so there you have it.
be23 Sep 15, 2010 at 11:32 pm
What a great addition to the Torch! Was going to buy a new GPS but don't need to know with this beauty and charges to boot!
Defo love to win one!
akira204 Sep 15, 2010 at 11:33 pm
I just wanna say that this is an ingenius accessory to develop and to have. Very useful in a way where we can actually use our berries as a real live GPS with speech and connected to our charger. Very well made and thought of.
trevcrev Sep 15, 2010 at 11:34 pm
This would be great as talking and using a phone in NY is illegal!!
cooliosam Sep 15, 2010 at 11:39 pm
handsfree is always a safe way to go!
Jghost23 Sep 15, 2010 at 11:39 pm
The iGrip would be highly utilized if I won this contest! Along with it's utilization I would be able to safely operate my Torch while driving. Many people get into car accidents everyday because they just happen to look down at their phone. It would also be awesome for navigation! Thanks for the opportunity CB!
ibethebaby Sep 15, 2010 at 11:39 pm
The chances for winning this are pretty high...
thebrownguy01 Sep 15, 2010 at 11:43 pm
I'm getting a torch on the 24th when it hits Canada and I would love to have this for my car. it would be an amazing accessory to have! hope I win!
adairpro Sep 15, 2010 at 11:45 pm
that looks like a great charging dock for the car. I would love it.
kasperapd Sep 15, 2010 at 11:47 pm
Awesome contest!
kameleon Sep 15, 2010 at 11:55 pm
The day I bought my torch (this past thursday) I placed an order for my charging/sync cradle and holster case. I really wanted a car mount but did not want to get one NOT made specifically for my torch. After searching shopcrackberry.com I did not see any that fit my criteria so I placed my order and had it overnighted. Then the NEXT MORNING they put up this car cradle that matched my criteria exactly to a T! Imagine my frustration. If I was to win one of these it would rock tremendously! Help a brother out! I would mount this in my truck and have a secure place to have my phone within eyesight rather than sliding around the seat. And I think it is a plus that you have to add your own charger to plug into the unit (similar to the sync/charging cradle). That way I can just run a usb cable from my carpc to the cradle and run tether to keep my carpc updated! Woot!
mshabo Sep 15, 2010 at 11:51 pm
I love my Torch. cant wait for more app support though
smokn05 Sep 15, 2010 at 11:51 pm
Wow, that looks like an awesome accessory! I'd love to have one!
thornburg24 Sep 15, 2010 at 11:54 pm
I want, no need this bad. Very sweet acc.
Kermitt4212 Sep 15, 2010 at 11:57 pm
Freakin sweet! I use GPS all the time and would love to use my phone instead.
Dragondima Sep 16, 2010 at 12:02 am
What a great accessory for the Torch! I think this would be a great tool for me! Best of luck everyone!
tge33 Sep 16, 2010 at 12:06 am
I can tell you that I have enjoyed my Torch so very much. I have although had my difficulties moving from a curve to the "touching" of the Torch. I would be most greatful if I had an iGrip charging dock. The one area that I have had the most difficulty is with using my usb port to charge my Torch. To tell you the truth, I dont think it has ever worked. This would be the perfect solution. I dont enter for everthing, only those things i really need so PLEASE may I have the charging dock?
GlennTX Sep 16, 2010 at 12:06 am
I'd love to give this a try out!
insman1 Sep 16, 2010 at 12:07 am
Sounds like a great idea. I need one.
luptonc Sep 16, 2010 at 12:08 am
Love it - need it -- thanks for the review -- I have been loooking at them and trying to make up my mind.
Very Helpful -- the bomb of reviews as my students say :)
chefmorry Sep 16, 2010 at 12:11 am
Crazy.....was looking at this in the ShopCrackberry store earlier with a friend of mine who owns a Torch. He just put all his music on it so he could use it in the car instead of his IPod. He didn't order it....i'd LOVE to win it so I can give it to him!
azz1 Sep 16, 2010 at 12:12 am
I would love to have this because i always use my gps and its sitting on my lap or I have to hold it so this would come in handy
lklim Sep 16, 2010 at 12:14 am
I was THIS CLOSE to buying a generic one off of Amazon and just hpping it would fit. I would love to have one not only made to fit but that will charge my Torch as well.
mauro99 Sep 16, 2010 at 12:16 am
i need this for my car my bb gets out of battry easly soo with this cradle im not gonna be empty of battery!!!!!!!!
mauro99 Sep 16, 2010 at 12:16 am
i need this for my car my bb gets out of battry easly soo with this cradle im not gonna be empty of battery!!!!!!!!
rnicotra Sep 16, 2010 at 12:17 am
In your face, iphone-y....
SkySoldier Sep 16, 2010 at 12:18 am
If I can win one of these, I will have one more good reason to shell out some money for a Torch and renew my contract for two more years!
henninge Sep 16, 2010 at 12:22 am
Its expe$sive lovin gadget - any help is appreciated!
Philldoe Sep 16, 2010 at 12:23 am
I need one of these so bad. I travel a lot and my Torch serves as my GPS when I drive. I also have it hooked into my cars stereo to play music on. Navigating through the menus is just unsafe while I drive because my Torch sits on the center console behind my gear shift (only place to put it in a tiny sports car).
Maby I'll get lucky and get one :P
lklim Sep 16, 2010 at 12:24 am
I was THIS CLOSE to buying a generic one off of Amazon and just hoping it would fit. I would love to have this one that would not only fit right, but charge it too!
cheryl_lynn Sep 16, 2010 at 12:29 am
This would be great for travel.
linkkoriri Sep 16, 2010 at 12:35 am
What about future Canadians getting it? Are Canadians cut off for this contest for some reason or are you saying that cause AT&T got it first and Americans are already using Torch? Should perhaps clarify. BUT, if Canadians are allowed in this one, PLEASE consider this my entry!! This is about the most awesomest, craziest, sweetest, most essential Blackberry Torch accessory to date!
rgharris Sep 16, 2010 at 12:35 am
I would definitely use my Torch as a GPS more often if I won this accessory! I would use it all the time! It would also be a great way to charge and keep my phone in place while on the go!
espresso1967 Sep 16, 2010 at 12:37 am
This is awesome charge to have esprecially if you use it like I do. I sometimes run low while on the road and the igrip will come in handy. So let me be one of the lucky winners :0)
Thanks
wirelessgal Sep 16, 2010 at 12:39 am
I'm getting the Torch when Rogers releases it. The iGrip would be perfect for my car! Also great if I decide to use Rogers Telenav. I'm very impressed with AT&T's Telenav, so I'm going to try the one with Rogers.
dgross07 Sep 16, 2010 at 12:39 am
Looks great. I volunteer for our local fire department and attend house fires at all times of the night. Great way to have it set up as a GPS and a handsfree device while on the road to a fire call. Looking forward to having one.
luvmybb_77 Sep 16, 2010 at 12:43 am
I saw the blog on this last week and was thinking what a great companion this would be for my new baby on all the trips that I use the navigator. Love my Torch, CB and Smartphone Experts!! iGrip rocks for giving out this super cool accessory!! I sure hope I win a free one so I can spread the word on how great it is!
ajpuffnstuff69 Sep 16, 2010 at 12:40 am
This would come in handy. I travel 2 hours to work every day.
Boldacious Sep 16, 2010 at 12:41 am
This is perfect. My Nuvi just died on me, and pairing this up with the Torch will save me the hassle of buying another GPS unit.
Boldly_Berry Sep 16, 2010 at 12:58 am
Very nice can't wait to get one.
Gdlistns30 Sep 16, 2010 at 12:58 am
This IS the reason Crackberry.com is the first site I check once my computer is humming!!! This is an awesome accessory for the Blackberry Torch!
Boldly_Berry Sep 16, 2010 at 1:02 am
Can't wait to get one. N
debphil#cb Sep 16, 2010 at 1:03 am
As I put on 40,000+ mi/year on the road
Moekind Sep 16, 2010 at 1:06 am
This will go well with my new BB Torch once it's released in Canada.
Ezcal Sep 16, 2010 at 1:06 am
BEST CONTEST EVER!
I SERIOUSLY hope to win this contest... I may have talked my way into getting a Torch with college money, but I won't be able to get much else this year, so hopefully CrackBerry and iGrip can hook me up with this sweet car charger/cradle.
roefernj Sep 16, 2010 at 1:07 am
Nothing better than a crackberry contest!
maara Sep 16, 2010 at 1:09 am
very nice :)
maara Sep 16, 2010 at 1:09 am
very nice :) exactly what I need
gldylox Sep 16, 2010 at 1:11 am
I feel like that old commercial..open..open..open...
Sigh...
jvictor77 Sep 16, 2010 at 1:16 am
From the review: "If you're a BlackBerry Torch owner living in the USA and want a chance at winning an iGrip Cradle for the Torch along with a BlackBerry Car Charger, then all you need to do is leave a comment to this blog post"
I've noticed a lot of other Canadian residents commenting on here to win. Given the above - Are we good to go in this contest or not? If we are I wouldn't mind being picked lol!
BlkDiva Sep 16, 2010 at 1:23 am
Thank you for the review. Win or lose, I plan to own one soon.
ktkalcich Sep 16, 2010 at 1:30 am
I have been looking everywhere for something like this. I can finally have a chance at something that would work great in my car!
abcdd Sep 16, 2010 at 1:33 am
Great idea, need it for my new unlocked torch. Send it my way!!!
j8330 Sep 16, 2010 at 1:33 am

robmac65 Sep 16, 2010 at 1:37 am

syberpriend Sep 16, 2010 at 1:37 am

un_peacekeeper Sep 16, 2010 at 1:38 am
Wow, one a day, this is amazing! I want one for my Torch (soon! when it comes to canada)
elin28 Sep 16, 2010 at 1:53 am
Great Review and that makes me even want to buy the Torch when it comes out in Canada by 24th
abdul Sep 16, 2010 at 1:54 am
I don't even have a torch,but if I win this I will get on for shore.This 8130 pearl is getting really slow.
jogofeio Sep 16, 2010 at 1:59 am
I'm in the Pool service industry and drive all day. This would really help out. Thanks for the contest.
flip68 Sep 16, 2010 at 2:00 am
I could surely use one of these for my new Torch! :)
Blazer Sep 16, 2010 at 2:06 am
That is exactly what I need. That will save me the expense of buying a "stand alone" GPS unit for my car!
dpac4686 Sep 16, 2010 at 2:07 am
i love my torch and would definitely love to win this dock!!
shure_civic Sep 16, 2010 at 2:19 am
I spend a ton of time on the road in a work truck. We only have so many outlets to charge with so to have something like this that's solve two problems is great. and it free up some windshield space too.
Thanks Crackberry and Igrip!
Louia Sep 16, 2010 at 2:20 am
Pick me. Pick me.
Aleithil Sep 16, 2010 at 2:22 am
Already 3 shocks on my Torch because it fell down in the car while driving with the help of google maps :-( ....
Please help me not to add anymore shocks !!! =D
lilybeth@ca.rr.com Sep 16, 2010 at 2:23 am
I am anxiously awaiting the receipt of my torch tomorrow (upgrading from 9700) and loved the review you gave the iGrip! As someone with absolutely no sense of direction (I get lost in my house!) I rely heavily on Navigator. With the new cell phone laws while driving... I can't risk holding my cell in my effort to use Navigator. The iGrip seems to be the perfect solution for this particular problem and I'm excited about it!! Great job!!
diaz1023 Sep 16, 2010 at 2:31 am
This would go great with the Torch I'm gonna get for my Birthday!!
samoffett Sep 16, 2010 at 2:57 am
Looks great. First time blackberry user. Love my torch. Could definatly use one of these.
Bmoc009 Sep 16, 2010 at 3:07 am
Perfect addition to my torch
RunToTheHills Sep 16, 2010 at 3:08 am
I don't have a Torch yet. But if i win this, i will steal Adam's. He only lives about 30 miles from me heheheheheheh
rage420#cb Sep 16, 2010 at 3:10 am
I would like to get one of these to try out
doraemon_918 Sep 16, 2010 at 3:10 am
But if I can have one for free, then :) Case fit or not I will still use it.
mattmatt99 Sep 16, 2010 at 3:16 am
Would really love to have one
sebastienlatil Sep 16, 2010 at 3:17 am
I'd love to get one of these ! it would really come in handy! thanks Crackberry.
steptoit10 Sep 16, 2010 at 3:23 am
i dont have a torch i just want it!!! Then maybe i will just have to get one!!! Really though I think that is something I would use!!! Love it!!!
ekbeegl Sep 16, 2010 at 3:24 am
Help me avoid another ticket for talking and driving...right now I'm a sitting duck!
alaskabennett Sep 16, 2010 at 3:24 am
Hoping to win the iGrip Charging Dock so I'll have everything ready to bring home a new baby Torch!
gameson Sep 16, 2010 at 3:26 am
damn, my GPS unit is out dated, back from 2006, time for new GPS, but I have no fund for new GPS as I just blow it all on Torch. so I will put this as a good use if I win it. :D please please
xeju Sep 16, 2010 at 3:30 am
Set me up!
blckmt89 Sep 16, 2010 at 3:46 am
Please...I didn't win the 2 Torch in this site..let me win this cradle at least! =(
=)
7accsnav Sep 16, 2010 at 3:46 am
What a great device to have! Please pick me!
BerryGirl1204 Sep 16, 2010 at 3:54 am
looks very convenient!!
hjsbberry Sep 16, 2010 at 4:00 am
What a wonderful device! This is so cool! I would love to have this in my car! Would be perfect for my torch! Please send one my way! :)
giser Sep 16, 2010 at 4:03 am
I don't normally take the time to post comments to contests, but this is such an awesome accessory I had to. CrackBerry.com and iGrip keep up the good work.
gavdalbs Sep 16, 2010 at 4:07 am
send one down under please. love the site crackberry forever
TLS2000 Sep 16, 2010 at 4:08 am
I'd love to win this and have an out of the way place to keep my Blackberry in the car!
willee Sep 16, 2010 at 4:23 am
wow with this there is no need to buy a gps device AWESOME
IchigoMochi Sep 16, 2010 at 4:34 am
I tend to drive around a lot for leisure and study so one of these would be a Godsend. Please pick me!!! =D
jaymillz1 Sep 16, 2010 at 4:37 am
Crackberry please iGrip my Torch for me...
RedbirdGT Sep 16, 2010 at 4:40 am
Great looking product. It will really make the Blackberry a much more appealing alternative for a GPS. I could really use one since I'm currently resting the BB in my lap for nav... Thanks CrackBerry for a great giveaway!
parked Sep 16, 2010 at 4:42 am
I would like this for my dad's Torch so he won't do the velcro thing to it like he did his last phone.
Hennreh Sep 16, 2010 at 4:52 am
Wow! GREAT tool! Just what I need for my Torch :)
sonydude23 Sep 16, 2010 at 4:57 am
I've had several items from the folks at iGrip.... they have the most awesome products... This one seems to be no exception. I hope I win one...
radar-man Sep 16, 2010 at 5:07 am
Looks awesome - I want one.
Tjitte Sep 16, 2010 at 5:12 am
This is a very nice accessory.
With this I don't need a separate dock for my GPS and a separate dock for my mobile phone.
D.Sandman Sep 16, 2010 at 5:28 am
I'd like to try one!!!
panyan Sep 16, 2010 at 5:33 am
ooh, yes please!!!
Colombian2nv7 Sep 16, 2010 at 5:58 am
This is great..i wish i had one...very very cool! =)
Mr Fun Sep 16, 2010 at 6:24 am
Hope to win
Crackberrykills Sep 16, 2010 at 6:34 am
Nice. Very nice. Yes, por favor.
Q3 CEO Sep 16, 2010 at 6:34 am
This looks like a great product. I travel up and down the East Coast and this would be a great asset to me.
mkerchoff Sep 16, 2010 at 6:39 am
Great news to finally have a custom well built dock for the Torch. Can't wait to get one... been waiting
TaZ52083 Sep 16, 2010 at 6:42 am
Wow i would love to get my hands on this cb nation good luck to all.
pegom1 Sep 16, 2010 at 6:55 am
I could SO use this..since my teenagers unplug my charger to use their iPod chargers....they can't reach this!
poste Sep 16, 2010 at 7:11 am
Looks like a sweet accessory for the new Torch. Something I can definitely get some use out of.
ortonauta Sep 16, 2010 at 7:13 am
But I want one!
jbonnot03 Sep 16, 2010 at 7:17 am
This would be an awesome prize. Much better than the universal I try to use with my Torch.
squintyboy Sep 16, 2010 at 7:19 am
a must have accessory
cu19 Sep 16, 2010 at 7:30 am
This would be used constantly when I am on the road. No matter if it is for work but also when I am travelling to see the grand kids. Thank you for a great give away.
lilaberry Sep 16, 2010 at 7:35 am
I would love to have this to keep my baby safe (who likes a dinged berry?)and don't want to be unsafe driving holding my berry either..thanks CrackBerry and SmartPhone
insaini Sep 16, 2010 at 7:38 am
It would make me such a safe driver! Instead of me holding my phone in my hand :$ !!
mjbilling Sep 16, 2010 at 7:40 am
I love my cradle and I know I will love my "car cradle" too. A torch needs to held with care and this iGrip sees the importance of that fact.
BMWABB Sep 16, 2010 at 7:45 am
I hate leaving my phone on the seat to charge while driving...it's just uncivilized. Would love to win this!
sherb12 Sep 16, 2010 at 7:52 am
looks amazing! hope i win. lol i'm probably going to end up ordering one before the 30 days are up!
TABpilot32 Sep 16, 2010 at 7:56 am
This is probably the coolest BlackBerry accessory I have ever bought, I got mine yesterday... While driving home from work this thing caused me to have my first real complaint about the Torch. I was very disappointed that while I had the Torch in the cradle on my windshield, I could not real the speaker phone, AT ALL!!! I knew it was bad, that that is awful. What I don't get is that on my Torch the volume for the speaker when I'm listening to music or watching a video on youtube is like 3x louder than the speaker sending out a phone call...
Either way, very cool accessory! ...Now I'm off to buy a bluetooth headset.
blindguy Sep 16, 2010 at 8:00 am
This would be great to go along with my new Torch and Slacker radio. Thanks for the contest.
Serkle K Sep 16, 2010 at 8:00 am
This setup and functionality look great! It would really help me with clock in my car, since my dash clock LCD is all messed up!
lssguru Sep 16, 2010 at 8:01 am
WOuld love to put this awesome dock in my car!!!
jeejah Sep 16, 2010 at 8:05 am
Having one of these might make having turn-by-turn navigation worth putting on my Berry - plus it just looks so darn nifty!
Jsolts Sep 16, 2010 at 8:07 am
Puts my holder to shame!
Hook it up!
jbendaou Sep 16, 2010 at 8:12 am
i do not want to over post, but does one need to leave a comment everyday? or once is enough?
NinjaRose Sep 16, 2010 at 8:13 am
Very god review. This is the first thing on my list of things to get when I get my torch this week and this review pretty much sealed that fact.
Though Adam... Driving around with no seat-belt on? Whilst distracted with a video camcorder and a mobile telephone? hehe!
Sweetthang kk Sep 16, 2010 at 8:14 am
I was waiting for a review on this, it looks great please pick me as the winner!
huskers15 Sep 16, 2010 at 8:19 am
This is the greatest invention ever! I can use it as a gps and charge it at the same time!! Hands free gps or whatever I can do with this!! Very cool!
switcharoo Sep 16, 2010 at 8:23 am
I just ordered my Torch off ebay UNLOCKED. If I win this dock I think I just might squeal!
Riperoo Sep 16, 2010 at 8:25 am
I need this big time! Holding my torch while driving with the manual trans is getting old!!
unlimited01 Sep 16, 2010 at 8:25 am
I was just looking at this yesterday!! I got a new car and I don't have a good place for my phone where I can see the screen now. This would be perfect.
Stevej100 Sep 16, 2010 at 8:29 am
I have a 2000 jeep wrangler and no place to put my 9800 without it sliding out of the jeep. This would work great on the windshield.
dcb#cb Sep 16, 2010 at 8:31 am
Great idea - my Torch doesn't fit into the holder I had in my car for the Bold. Looks exactly like what I need.
texasbid Sep 16, 2010 at 8:33 am
It would be great to have this iGrip. It would make driving a lot safer having your Torch in a true hands free mode and conveniently mounted on your windshield. Watching the GPS would be nice, since it is difficult to do that without one (iGrip). With all of the great features of the iGrip, you can focus on your driving. Sure would be great to have one...hint-hint ;-)
divingindeep Sep 16, 2010 at 8:33 am
That would make a great addition to my car when traveling. No more holding my phone on the wheel, or trying to prop it up in the cup holder so i can see the GPS directions while driving.
plumed Sep 16, 2010 at 8:34 am
Thanks in advance, Crackberry!
DrLouie Sep 16, 2010 at 8:35 am
It would be sweet to be able to charge my BlackBerry and get rid of my garmin at the same time.
dling71 Sep 16, 2010 at 8:36 am
I really need this....to keep the flame alive for my Torch....to hold her tight with my new iGrip..........please help me out Crackberry!
mtmouse Sep 16, 2010 at 8:36 am
I would love to win one of these, to have for my new Torch....when it's released next week.
gohogs911 Sep 16, 2010 at 8:37 am
...As someone who lives in his vehicle, this would be an awesome thing to have. I'm getting tired of leaving my phone in the cup holder!
netposer#cb Sep 16, 2010 at 8:40 am
This would be a nice fit next to my Garmin GPS.
froussy Sep 16, 2010 at 8:43 am
Would be good to have.. im getting my 9800 in 1 week :)
Connor83 Sep 16, 2010 at 8:43 am
I hope I can get one of these. It looks built really well and has a very nice design. It's just what I've been looking for.
TillMarch Sep 16, 2010 at 8:45 am
Me want it:D
pmpkng Sep 16, 2010 at 8:52 am
I need this bad i am tired of Storm II sliding around whil its charging and it would be so much easier for me to look at GPS while driving
Pathtek4 Sep 16, 2010 at 8:52 am
WOW! Now this would kick major butt! My radio does not work in my car, so I use my Blackberry to stream music using the working mp3 aux port on the radio. Needless to say it has to sit on the passenger seat AND I have a 5 speed convertible Mustang, so nothing like trying to keep a wire out the way AND having the sunglare trying to look at the screen as its perched on the seat. THIS RIGHT HERE would make my life complete, seriously! Let me advertise it for you, cause while I have the top down, people will see it displayed quite easily that I hve an iGrip holding my Torch! :)
jbowen091381 Sep 16, 2010 at 8:53 am
Crackberry, hook me up with one of these. It would be perfect for my car.
lhakenson Sep 16, 2010 at 8:53 am
What a great idea. Please pick me so I can enjoy this marvelous invention
volvoxc90lvr Sep 16, 2010 at 8:54 am
First off this cradle is totally awesome!! I live on a military base and are not allowed to talk on our cell phones without a hands free device and they are not shy about handing out tickets if your caught on your cell on post. They even do checkpoints to catch you!! I have 3 kids and am involved in many activities so I am constantly in my car, on post without a hands free device. With a family member deployed in Afghanistan and one in Iraq right now its just not in my budget to be able to splurge on this cradle. It would make my life a whole lot easier. Plus my best friend has the Droid which has a cool (but not as awesome!) cradle for her car and she is always showing it off to me!! If I got this one then I could show it off to her and all the other Blackberry Torch owners on post!! They would definitely go out to buy one after they saw mine!!!
hatiansensation Sep 16, 2010 at 8:57 am
That looks useful and pretty cool I wouldn't mind having this and make my wife jealous
jsox78 Sep 16, 2010 at 8:59 am
Great giveaway, but is it really restricted to only the Torch. I would love one for my Storm II.
vodomustng2000 Sep 16, 2010 at 8:59 am
Yuppers!
natedog1244 Sep 16, 2010 at 9:02 am
I do a lot of driving for work and this would be a great addition! Thanks for the give-aways guys! Crackberry Rocks!
idunnowe Sep 16, 2010 at 9:02 am
That's all I got.
WolfeOnIce Sep 16, 2010 at 9:03 am
Ive been looking for something that would keep my phone locked and sturdy while on the dash... always too afraid that it will slide off on a turn or when I speed off... perhaps this would be the one!
Summett Sep 16, 2010 at 9:05 am
That accessory itself should make the Torch more appealing to some!
cinder0008 Sep 16, 2010 at 9:05 am
I drive quite a bit while traveling for work. I constantly use my AT&T navigator to keep me on track. In the past (with Bold 9000), I have just set the phone in my lap while driving. Unfortunately it would always end up between the seats or on the floor when tapping the brakes. This can't happen with my precious Torch! I need to provide the security my baby deserves!
Lakers0884 Sep 16, 2010 at 9:05 am
Would love to get my hands on one!
omerw Sep 16, 2010 at 9:07 am
you gotta let me win sumting !!!!
rpawly Sep 16, 2010 at 9:14 am
need a replacement for my proclip!
LovingBerry Sep 16, 2010 at 9:15 am
I would like to have one for my car, it would definitely replace my big clunky GPS system and it would be great for hands free conversation, not to mention I do need a car charger for my Torch.
tumer Sep 16, 2010 at 9:15 am
THAT WILL COME IN HANDY I WAS PLANING TO GET THE TORCH WHEN IT COMES OUT HEAR IN CANADA
cloney Sep 16, 2010 at 9:15 am
wicked sick, now i dont have to use my garmin ! iGrip deserves someones first born...
randal1000 Sep 16, 2010 at 9:18 am
This is a great accessory for someone like me that travels a lot in my vehicle. I am constantly on the phone and use a GPS unit now. Having this would keep me hands free and eliminate my old GPS unit.
Send one my way!
mcherinka#cb Sep 16, 2010 at 9:19 am
Please! I will definitely use this. Let me win!
joe.kent Sep 16, 2010 at 9:20 am
I want one of these... great idea!!!
coolcut Sep 16, 2010 at 9:21 am
This would look great in my Saab! I can't wait to pick up my 9800 next week!
ycrazyy Sep 16, 2010 at 9:22 am
This one is definitely on my to buy list...
ardew Sep 16, 2010 at 9:22 am
woo hoo.....
lauren122688 Sep 16, 2010 at 9:22 am
Yes Please!!!! I'm going to become poor after buying all these sweet things for the torch haha!
bad_boy321 Sep 16, 2010 at 9:24 am
THis is one of the best things to have in my truck!
cversion7 Sep 16, 2010 at 9:25 am
I soooo want one of these! I'll have to wait until Christmas if I don't win one. :)
ajgreiner Sep 16, 2010 at 9:26 am
great idea would love to have one for my Torch
samwise979 Sep 16, 2010 at 9:28 am
ooh ooh pick me.. this looks awesome! how come we haven't seen chargers like this with previous models?!
richiebrewer Sep 16, 2010 at 9:28 am
Awesome tool to make the Torch even better!
batrad Sep 16, 2010 at 9:28 am
The GPS in my wifes Benz leaves a lot to be desired (does not do door to door directions.. this is a 2008 Model)
Having a dock like this would help us not get lost :D
Google Maps + Leave it On == Save Marriage...
Sidithicus Sep 16, 2010 at 9:28 am
This thing looked pretty interesting and was thinking about picking one up. Would be great for holding the phone for Pandora in the car
keke423 Sep 16, 2010 at 9:29 am
The igrip charging dock is a must have! I travel alot from state to state and just around town so this item would really suit my needs! I have different appointments around town that I don't know how to get to and having the navigation right in front of me instead of on my lap is great and I want have to worry about having another accident!! LoL I'm ok I live to see another day but I really could see several more days with this igrip charging dock!! If I don't when it I sure will try to buy it that's if I can afford it lol!!!
hintzj Sep 16, 2010 at 9:34 am
Wow! That would be great in a rental car.
snowfree52 Sep 16, 2010 at 9:35 am
This looks so great ! I hope I can get my hands on this one !
Thanks crackberry for all those contests.
deflep Sep 16, 2010 at 9:36 am
I am counting the days until the release of the TYorch with my carrier.
I would love the dock. It will sit nicely beside my Sirius and keep my hands free.
Thanks!!!!!!!!!
Cristy937 Sep 16, 2010 at 9:41 am
What a good idea! This is an awesome car charger and would be a great way safely enjoy many functions of the Blackberry Torch 9800 while driving.
nagasaki69 Sep 16, 2010 at 9:41 am
I will take one please!
r1ckynutz Sep 16, 2010 at 9:42 am
WOW I could use one of these bad!!! lol
g.grimes Sep 16, 2010 at 9:42 am
Would make long trips a lot easier and safer. Hope to win!
toolman#cb Sep 16, 2010 at 9:45 am
Nice review Adam. I just traveled to Chicago and used the AT&T Navigator on my Torch 9800. It would have been nice to have the iGrip Dock to hold the phone while driving, but I didn't, so I had to either lay the phone on the passager seat or sit it in the cup holder, and then hold it in my hand when I needed to read it. Again, good review, of a great product!
jdaniel001 Sep 16, 2010 at 9:45 am
I need one now. But, I wonder how something like google maps would work.
jorleycom Sep 16, 2010 at 9:47 am
Will look god on my dash
JTekt Sep 16, 2010 at 9:49 am
i've never fully embraced navigation systems on mobile phones due to not being able to have it set up as nicely in my car as an actualy GPS Unit. Also, I've always had berries with a keypad, meaning a smaller screen.
Now that I have a torch with a large screen, this car dock practically changes the game. Why do I need a gps unit now when I can have the exact same setup in my car, but have it running through my phone! I've already pretty much eliminated the need for my ipod, looks like my Garmin may be next!
06kingranch Sep 16, 2010 at 9:52 am
I saw this a few days ago and was very impressed. I want one!
golferguy Sep 16, 2010 at 9:55 am
I really need this for my brand new Torch! I travel a lot and use the GPS for navigation.
tonkscullen Sep 16, 2010 at 9:56 am
i need one of those!! pretttty please!! <3
smundwyler Sep 16, 2010 at 10:02 am
The best dock I've ever seen. I had one from them for my Bold 9000 but it didn't have a charger built in. I even know someone who won't change from his razor because he has a car mount like this for it. Amazing mount. Now, I wanna win one!
WarpEngineer Sep 16, 2010 at 10:05 am
This thing is great! It will be so much easier to navigate than holding the BlackBerry in my hand the whole time.
diamondguy37 Sep 16, 2010 at 10:04 am
I live in the suburbs of Chicago and I drive all over the place and use the navigation software. Would love to have one of these so I am not always holding my phone to look at the navigation while driving. Crackberry Rocks!!
young_adam Sep 16, 2010 at 10:06 am
an iGrip...
I use my BlackBerry(Torch) for everything in my car; it becomes my bluetooth media centre, my "what am I getting for dinner?" device.
I store all my music on it, I have about a dozen podcasts that I never find time to listen to all of them, I have pictures of my pile of dirt (soon to be house), videos of my niece as she grows up.
Having an iGrip would be a great addition, just so that my BlackBerry can stay with me, stay charged, and keep me organized.
dudermont Sep 16, 2010 at 10:07 am
Nice design.
berry79red Sep 16, 2010 at 10:09 am
I travel quite a bit and this device will be perfect for my travels! Thanks!
Nammer403 Sep 16, 2010 at 10:09 am
wooo i will be needing this for the torch i be getting next week !
JefferLynn Sep 16, 2010 at 10:10 am
This is pretty excellent!!!
taylor36 Sep 16, 2010 at 10:10 am
I have the torch 9800 and of course I love it and I really need the igrip charging dock. I travel around my city and out of town sometimes promoting my best friends hair products Eukivi products and I'm always going to new locations that I have to use the navigation. I have my pun on my lap or in the passenger seat and I have been in an accident before because of that so if I don't when it which I hope I do I will have to ask my best friend to buy it since she has all the money lol!!! Please let me win it i ask her for to much money anyway lol!!!
chopperman Sep 16, 2010 at 10:11 am
Getting ready to replace my Bold 9000 with the Torch. This iGrip Charging Dock would be perfect for me to use in my Jeep. Us Georgians are now under a texting ban, so having the phone on the windshield would be perfect. A quick glance tells me if the email or text I have received is important enough for me to pull over.
love6 Sep 16, 2010 at 10:12 am
This would be an awesome addition since I use my GPS app all the time to follow my kids around to all their sporting events. And with 6 that's A LOT!!
Pilot Prop Sep 16, 2010 at 10:13 am
This would be great! The iGrip would keep from holding my Torch while using navigation.
nettech_gt Sep 16, 2010 at 10:15 am
I hope I win!!!!
ianig9 Sep 16, 2010 at 10:15 am
For the Torch to be released in Canada. I'll be picking one up once they are. This would be very handy...
Thanks again,
Ian.
j.krazy Sep 16, 2010 at 10:16 am
This would be great for the car, since I do a lot of driving it would certainly help with GPS.
Hywelbane Sep 16, 2010 at 10:18 am
I've been waiting for something like this to replace my ancient Palm and Tom Tom mount setup. This is such a natural setup for the Torch for GPS and car use.
BENZ_O Sep 16, 2010 at 10:19 am
sign me up!
sandydurst Sep 16, 2010 at 10:20 am
If I win this I could score major points by giving my wife my GPS!
McFly121 Sep 16, 2010 at 10:21 am
At first I thought this was a useless device but now after thinking about it, it could be very helpful. Hope I win one.
jo710 Sep 16, 2010 at 10:21 am
to win this
brotherjoe Sep 16, 2010 at 10:21 am
Wow! This would be great. I'm a Pastor and use GPS often. This would help me tremendously. This has got to be one if not the best accessory yet for the Torch. Way to go iGrip. Way to crackberry.
mitchemail Sep 16, 2010 at 10:22 am
This is a must have for me! I actually tried to build my own because I couldn't wait. Then I see this finally came to market. I would love one!
xmaveric Sep 16, 2010 at 10:22 am
We wants it! We needs it!
domnick33 Sep 16, 2010 at 10:24 am
I am a proud new owner of the bb Torch and would love to have this iGrip dock so i can easily use my AT&T navigator which works awesome on this device. Thanks for all that you guys do at CRACKBERRY!!! YOU GUYS ROCK
lmengerink Sep 16, 2010 at 10:25 am
Looks sweet!
cpetersen2791 Sep 16, 2010 at 10:26 am
with my satellite radio, gps, and phone, i can't see out of my windshield. This would fix that!!
da1105 Sep 16, 2010 at 10:28 am
woohoo i want one!
tidebuzz Sep 16, 2010 at 10:30 am
This would be so useful while driving. I love my Torch, and I don't want to risk dropping it while driving, AND I can charge it! Crackberry user's dream!
larue00 Sep 16, 2010 at 10:32 am
This is what I need!
converteddroid Sep 16, 2010 at 10:35 am
I will be getting my Torch next week and this would be a great first accessory for it!!!
jiggz22 Sep 16, 2010 at 10:36 am
Dock me up please??!!
KCCause Sep 16, 2010 at 10:38 am
This BAD Boy!
LayoJr Sep 16, 2010 at 10:41 am
Wow! Thanks to the guys (and gals, I'm sure) at iGrip and Crackberry for this opportunity!! Personally, I hope to win one because I live 2.5 hours away from where I work so I have to drive at least 4 to 5 hours each day to get to/from work :o( So I use my phone as a navi system ALL the time...especially to get traffic and weather updates along the way.
This is one of the main reasons why I got the Torch (I only got it a week ago). After seeing how zippy the navigation (and overall the OS as a whole) is, I had to switch from the 9700. The touchscreen feature is EXACTLY what I needed to make using my phone as a navigation / traffic / weather assistant perfect!
I now have no need for an MP3 player, a digital camera (for my everyday personal use), a navigation unit, nor a video player...all because of my beautiful Torch!
This cradle would be the PERFECT accessory for me! I hope I win one.
143BB Sep 16, 2010 at 10:44 am
AND THIS ONE IS A A NECESSITY BECAUSE I AM CURRENTLY THE DOCK - THE ONE HOLDING THE PHONE IN ORDER FOR ME TO FIND WHERE I'M GOING , AND DRIVING , AND ETC ETC. THIS WOULD BE GREAT!
grimlin Sep 16, 2010 at 10:45 am
It would look so awesome hangin' off the window of my beat up '99 Ford Ranger. Right now, my torch has to sit on the seat beside me and that is just sad. What would happen to the poor thing in a car accident? Since it doesn't weigh enough, I have to turn off the airbags and it can't fit in a seat belt. Please help me help my Torch stay safe.
CaptAmerica Sep 16, 2010 at 10:46 am
Awesome phone with awesome accessories!!! Way better than an IPhone!!!
trev9065 Sep 16, 2010 at 10:51 am
great idea i love it
Franticek Sep 16, 2010 at 10:51 am
Ok, now this is just too cool. Easy access to everything I need (and no more GPS map updates from the old clunker). Yes, please.
Firefly617 Sep 16, 2010 at 10:59 am
I would love to have one of these, very cool accessories for the Blackberry Torch. My Torch absolutely needs one.
desean1#cb Sep 16, 2010 at 11:00 am
I don't have a 9800 yet but I'll be getting one soon....
fort1 Sep 16, 2010 at 11:01 am
I absolutely LOVE my new Torch!! It is the best thing that blackberry has come out with. Love the idea of the iGrip, now i can use my blackberry without hassel of trying to find a place to put it for use with the GPS. Nice job blackberry!!
pmas76 Sep 16, 2010 at 11:04 am
As a truck driver trying to make ends meat, I am on the road over 12 hours a day with my Torch in hand giving me directions. This iGrip Charging Dock would do me wonders!
Crossing my fingers hoping to win this fabulous product. Over-and-Out.
bbuckles Sep 16, 2010 at 11:05 am
Would love to win one of these!
thanks

dang42 Sep 16, 2010 at 11:09 am
Count me in, I'd love to have this, would be an awesome addition to my torch!!!
ewap Sep 16, 2010 at 11:10 am
This is gonna be so useful. I'd like to win this !!!
TrueHappiness Sep 16, 2010 at 11:18 am
I NEEED THIS IN MY LIFE! It will definitely help me avoid "txt adn driving" tickets when I'm ONLY using my friggin GPS on the phone....
Crackberry.. you would save me tons of TICKETS with this! Pick me puh-leeeeeeassssseeeee!
SGWALKER Sep 16, 2010 at 11:24 am
This looks very nice and useful....hope I win one so I can try it out!!
cnhmatthews#cb Sep 16, 2010 at 11:26 am
This is great for me because I'm tired of lugging myTomTom, plus mount, plus charger when a travel. I need y Torch car charger anyway, so this is a no-brainer. Would love to win rather than buy though.
PinkBB_08 Sep 16, 2010 at 11:27 am
will love it more if i win it :-)
4tay Sep 16, 2010 at 11:28 am
This looks awesome! Hook it up!
jacemo76m Sep 16, 2010 at 11:29 am
this is so awesome would love to get one
thumper007 Sep 16, 2010 at 11:30 am
I can't wait to get one! But in Canada Crackberry doesnt have it in stock yet. I talked to customer service and they put me on a waiting list to email me ASAP. I've waiting for something like this. SO stylish and it fit perfect for the torch. NOT JUST ANOTHER HOLDING CLAW!!! :-)
rahsun Sep 16, 2010 at 11:33 am
i have never procured a car mount in my life first time for everything right?
chopperbill#cb Sep 16, 2010 at 11:33 am
What a great tool for the car, the ability to utilize the navigation and keep us safe while focused on the road makes it very useful. When you have an incoming call the Torch can remain in place and the call can be handled via either the visor system or ear piece all the while keeping a good charge for the battery... over all a great asset for those of us that comute everyday... I would very much like to own the iGrip charging dock, what a great way to find my way and keep me and others safe while staying conneted...
Kevin21 Sep 16, 2010 at 11:34 am
This is nice!! I hope I win one... I would no longer have to put my phone on my lap while driving.
junior79 Sep 16, 2010 at 11:35 am
i do alot of traveling and get lost alot. lol but i hope i win and get this great item.
Irwansmg Sep 16, 2010 at 11:35 am
this is the usefull thing for my torch, and very comfortable with my car. please give it to me 1, to my special torch star.
ja600v Sep 16, 2010 at 11:36 am
This absolutely looks like the best holder I have seen to date. Combine this with the Jabra Cruiser and you are set for hands free traveling!
mrunder Sep 16, 2010 at 11:37 am
When I could win one of these babies!
likonvampire Sep 16, 2010 at 11:40 am
Looks actually really useful , would love to have one once I get my Canadian Torch !!
bbquincar Sep 16, 2010 at 11:42 am
This is a great item to have on those long trips i can wait for canada to get them and 9800 to have garmin
