Plugged, went directly broken

I have the dock normally connected to a power strip, it hissed briefly and the dock was broken. The multiple socket (5 places, one was occupied by a lamp) still works properly.
You should also mention that the Desire HD no longer fits into the station when using a protective cover (for example Caste-Mate). You do not necessarily chalk up the dock, but I personally found it very annoying, I do not want to constantly have to finally take off my sleeve.
