220 V ? [Posted on 2001-12-17]
Yes, this travel kit is good for 100V - 240V ! Why doesn't it specifically say that anywhere? I had to download the user manual from the palm website to find out.
Good investment [Posted on 2001-12-27]
When I bought my Palm V many models ago, I needed a light, space-friendly charger to take with me whenever I went home for break during school. The included charger was too bulky and fragile, so I decided that I should purchase a travel charger. So far, it has worked well. The reason I gave it four instead of five stars is because I have not used the other features. The only thing that I have used is the charger itself. I have yet to use the portable HotSync cradle or the voltage converters. For what I use it for, the price is a little high. Perhaps when I travel overseas and purchase a laptop in the future, it will come in handy. But hey, I love the suitcase-friendly size!
Handy, but a lot of bits [Posted on 2002-01-23]
I use my travel charger quite often. It is great to not have to carry around the full cradle just to charge the battery in my Palm Vx while I'm away from home and office. The extra sync cable is rarely useful for me, as I feel awkward syncing to someone else's machine but it has been handy for installing a needed program update or grabbing a new game while on the road. The only quibble I have is that the kit has a lot of bits to keep track of. A more elegant design would have one cable that connects to the Palm device with the other end capable of plugging into the charger or a sync connector, depending on your needs. That would perhaps enable the charger to have all the various international adapters in one unit instead of loose. Still, it is a valuable accessory and has been worth the cost for me.
How does the hotsync cable work?? [Posted on 2003-02-10]
Being able to recharge the Palm is great, but my kit did not come with instructions. How do you start the hotsync process, since the hotsync cable (unlike the normal nontravel hotsync cradle) does not have a hotsync button??
AC power on the go [Posted on 2006-10-04]
As our Palm V/Vx and WorkPad C3 PDAs age, battery life can become a challenge. Having a portable power supply for plugging into a handy wall outlet can be a lifesaver. True, it's not tiny, but it's much smaller and lighter than that metal cradle. I'd call it a must-have!
