One of the coolest accessories for the Palm Pre, the Touchstone charging dock, has recently been spotted doing its wireless charging thing with none other than the HTC EVO 4G.
In the 1-minute demo below, you'll see the EVO being set on top of and removed from the Touchstone, charging and not charging accordingly.
Full details on how this was done aren't given, but the modder does say that it involved taking the EVO apart and soldering the connections. [UPDATE: Q&A with the HTC EVO Touchstone modder]
Amazon sells the Touchstone for $24 and a Palm Touchstone Kit for $46
that includes the charging dock and the Pre's back cover if anyone wants to do some inductive charging experiments while we wait for the original modder to put out instructions.
And if you get it working and care to write up a tutorial so others can do it too, you know where to send it.
UPDATE: Tutorial now available!
Thanks, Brody!



















This is perfect for those that came from a Pre with an extra touchstone since I had one at home and work. Now if I can muster up some courage to open up the Evo.. ugh.
Awesome thanks for posting this!
I really hope he release a tutorial for this i would love to try this.
Anyone think they might release a similar product for the Evo? I know I’d probably buy one.
I hope so it would be a great feature for the EVO or if Power Mat would make a battery door capable to be used with there drop and charge mats
