Rating: Summary: Very fussy Review: This would be a good portable solution if they can make it work right. The connection to the Palm Tungsten T is very loose, and you have to prop up the cable at the right angle for it to make a good connection. You cannot move your PDA while it is hotsyncing or the connection would be broken.
Rating: Summary: palm Review: Well I was excited to get this item because my deskspace at work is limited and I just wanted to have a small cord for syncing and charging that I could easily put away when I didn't need it. First couple times I used it, it worked fine. Now after maybe a couple months (and maybe a dozen uses, if that) the connection has gotten loose and it won't sync at all. It will still charge the unit (somewhat), but I have to fiddle around with the cord on my desk and make sure the green light on my palm is on so I know it's actually connected properly.
Palm sould really be ashamed at themselves for some of the crappy accessory items they make. I mean, is it so hard to make a sync cord that works? Very dissapointing. I gave it two stars only because it will still charge the unit...and sometimes that alone is useful when I'm at work and don't have a cradle handy.
UPDATE: A couple days after I posted my original review, the cord stopped connecting well enough to even charge the unit. This sync cord is utter crap, don't buy it!!!
