practical and functional [Posted on 2002-04-30]
I received the Sony Clie S300 as a gift. Along with the package came your normal sync cradle/battery charger (PEGA-UC500). What's practical about this cradle is that the battery charger is detachable from the back of the unit which you can take with you on long trips (assuming you don't need to synch so often). The ac adaptor's prongs are collapsible, making it easy to store. It has a USB connection to the computer, which is great, but the software I have is somehow a hack over the serial connection so speed is not impressive. Still, this particular cradle itself is fully functional in every aspects of it's tasks.
A great timesaver... [Posted on 2002-06-18]
I bought my wife a Sony Clie PEG-S320 for Christmas. She soon came to be dependent on it, but did not 'sync' with the computer often enough. One day, she cracked the LCD, rendering most of the functions (including the menu) useless. We were looking at many hours of lost data. Using the USB cradle, we were still able to sync, and then load all her data back into her new Clie. Without the cradle, we had no way to trigger the sync process. I would highly recommend this device to anyone with a 300 series Clie. The detachable charger is a nice feature as well.
Compatibility problem [Posted on 2002-11-01]
I just bought a Clie PEG-SL 10, and this cradle is advertised as the right one for PEG-S series. WATCH OUT! does not fit into the PEG-SL10...though it is advertised as compatible for all PEG-S series. I am retuning it.
The charging lead connector is not very durable [Posted on 2003-07-21]
Sure the cradle is fine for synching/recharging but after about 16 months of use, the charging lead did not make a clean connect with the cradle interface (or directly with the clie). I had to take apart the charging interface and force the pins out a little more then try and tape it all back together. I have to do this every month now since the pins gradually retract. It's the only fault I've had in using the Sony Clie but I'll prob have to get a full cradle replacement becuase of it.
Great set, love the wall addapter [Posted on 2007-03-23]
This is a great set of sony product. I love the wall adapter I can use at the office seperate from my hotsync craddle. This model is for the Peg-s series, specifically S360,s320 and s300. This will not work with the SJ series and will not work for the SL series clie either. So check your model number carefully.
