The Netgear Zing plugs right in to this cradle. Why would you want one? For one, it's much easier to keep charged up without looking for a cable. More importantly, the cradle includes an external antenna which significantly boosts the signal strength. That typically equates to more speed! Especially in coverage challenged areas or through a few walls in buildings.
