Summary: Wonderful alternative to Palm charger.
Review: I own a m505 and the new Tungsten T m550. This charger works perfectly with both forming a tight connection on the universal port. A similar charger from Belkin does not securely work with the Tungsten T despite the universal connector. The Palm brand charger costs twice as much. ...This is a steal and even has a light on the adapter to show it is getting power. Highly recommended.

Summary: Charger or Discharger? Beware.
Review: No instructions tell you to plug the unit into the wall before connecting your Palm. If you connect to the Palm first, the green power light on the unit will turn on even though it's not plugged into the wall. That's a bad sign. After enough time, the Palm will not turn on because the charger has depleted the Palm. It will still charge the Palm (wall first, then Palm), but after 2 months of daily use my Palm went dead and could not be revived, either by soft or hard reset. Interestingly, placing the Palm in its OEM cradle showed its power light on, so it was (I think) still taking a charge. Luckily, my Palm was still under warranty and I got a replacement, no questions asked. With my replacement Palm Tungsten T, I have kept this travel charger away from it completely. I am glad to see that this product is no longer available from Amazon. However, I'm still out the [money].

Summary: Good, small, cheap - pick three
Review: This charger is tiny - and that's good, as it packs easily. The plug folds into the body of the charger for compactness. Unlike some Palm-oriented accessories I have seen, the Palm-end connector fits fine and is easy to remove. An LED on the charger illuminates to let you know it's working, but then, so does the LED on the i705 itself. For the price, I don't think you can beat it. It would have been nice to include some foreign plug adaptors, but you can pick those up almost anywhere. The only odd thing I have noticed is that the charging LED on my i705 will sporadically go off and then on again, while it is charging. I don't see this with the regular cradle. But it doesn't seem to actually be a problem - I suspect it's due to the regulator circuit in the charger.

Summary: product is garbage, do not buy.
Review: you plug it in , it does nothing. great money making idea for the company. they also charge 3 dollars a minute for customer support. it cost more than the product itself to tell them it does not work. the genius who came up with that should get a raise. it seems that iconcept is more of a scheme than a business, beware.
