*Update*
Now shipping!
We had a slight delay with US customs wanting to check things out (we think they just wanted extensions for their phones, but who really knows?) In any case, the items are now in stock. We appreciate your patience on this brand new, unique product. We listened to you and brought you a leading edge product.
Smartdock Capability
If you want to charge your phone using a charging cradle with your Samsung Galaxy Note 2, or Galaxy S4, or other MHL phone, but you can't because you have a case on it, this cable solves that problem. Built because of customer demand; you wanted it, we built it. Functionality is limited to charging and HDMI output from the dock. USB ports on the dock do not function at this time. Try a bluetooth to add this functionality!
How it's different than a standard USB Micro-B Extension or MHL Extension Adapters on other sites
The MHL connector is incorporated into the Micro USB 2.0 connector of many newer phones, however, the Samsung S3, S4, and Note 2 (as of Oct. 2013) use an 11pin MHL connector, rather than the standard 5pin connector that Micro-USB uses. While a Micro-USB extension will work for charging and data transfer, it won't work with additional HDMI functionality. Ours is charging and MHL compatible with your newer Samsung phone - we've not only tested it, but we use it ourselves.
