Cheaply made piece of junk [Posted on 2007-07-24]
My first impression when I opened the package was a feeling that I had made a purchasing mistake, as the cradle and charger weighed next to nothing. On first attempt to use this product, I had trouble even getting it to seat into the cradle. The power plug and the data connector were crooked and did not line up quite right with the corresponding ports on the Palm Pilot (Tungsten E). It also seemed that the data connector was not sticking far enough out of the cradle to make a good connection. Once I managed to get it seated, I connected the wall charger and the USB cable. It appeared to be charging, but the USB data cable was faulty and did not work (I swapped it with a known good cable in the same USB port and was able to sync without problems). Not sure if it was the fact that it wasn't sticking out far enough, or if the wiring was just faulty. In any case, this product flat out didn't work. I tried to straighten out the data plug and the housing just practically fell apart. And at such a low price, I guess I shouldn't be surprised. Currently priced at $8.99, but lists for $59.99? Give me a break..., The high list price is only there to make you THINK this is a quality product you are getting at a great sale price. Actually, it is a cheaply made and poorly designed trinket (Made in China). I didn't bother trying to get a refund (not worth the hassle) or a replacement (no thanks!). My opinion: don't waste your money. Spend a little more and get something that actually works!

this cradle does not work [Posted on 2008-06-19]
I bought this device thinking it was a great price but my Tungsten E did not fit on the cradle. I did not want to force it for fear of damaging my handheld. It is light weight and cheaply made. You will be better off with Palm accessories.I was able to return it for refund.
