Verizon Galaxy Nexus Car Dock Lacks Three-pin Connection Unlike HSPA Version

Now all of you that just purchased the Verizon Galaxy Nexus, are as happy as  little Android geeks could be to have the latest and greatest that Android has to offer. Many of you also probably are going to purchase a car dock so you can utilize the phones functions as you drive. This might get you a little upset.

Well my Verizon friends, they messed up. An awesome feature of the Galaxy Nexus, is that it has the three-pin contact of the side of the frame so that you can connect and disconnect the phone from the car dock very easily.  Seems this cheap little car dock they are selling is missing that three-pin contact feature, yet the GSM version has it along with micro-USB and mic ports built into the dock. Can you say OOPS! The picture above shows the two different car docks. The one on the right is the Verizon version while the one on the left is the UK version for the Galaxy Nexus. So why did they do this? Only answer I can come up with is, because it is Verizon.
