Summary: It Works, But . .
Review: I use this AC charger for my iPaq 3700 when I am on the road and away from the iPaq cradle attached to my desktop. It powers the unit when attached (and plugged into a wall socket, of course) and charges the battery. I often use my PDA to get my e-mail when I am on the road and using the adapter lets me keep the power up during my lengthy email sessions.

Why only three stars? Well, whether it is just my charger or if it is common to all chargers, the power seems to fluctuate while it is plugged in. If I have the backlight on, the light will literally pulse. It gets irritating enough for me to shut the backlight off. I have seen no problems with my PDA while using this charger, other than that pulsing. I assume that it has something to do with the waveform of the AC to DC power conversion, but I'm no electrical engineer. It does make me wonder, though, if it might not be the best thing for my iPaq.
