| Cable works fine - they just shipped me the 3 ft size vs the 5 |
| The cable works fine, and the price is excellent. The only reason I did not give this a 5th star is that I ordered 15 of these and they each arrived 3 ft -- not the 5 ft as detailed in the technical specifications. Since our field sales people will be using these for customer presentations, the extra 2 ft would have been really helpful. But, we are in a time crunch and need to work with what we have in hand. Overall, this is a decent cable at a great price. |

| Gets the job done. Great price! |
The two connectors I had for my iPaq h1945, aka h1940 (one cable for the PC connection, another for charging alone) started messing up (specifically the metal catches on the sides got bent -- be careful about this as it can happen with any of these, but it did take some years for it to happen to me.) One started making my PDA produce a buzzing noise if I didn't plug it in just right, which is obviously more than a little bit worrying, so that one is in the trash now since I want my PDA to continue to last for a long time yet. I ordered this because it's the only one not at a ridiculous price. One little oddity though. The part labeled "up" goes down! It took me a little while to figure out why it wasn't going in and just as I got worried it was the wrong thing I tried it the other way and was surprised to see it work.
Pros:
Snug fit probably won't mess up as easily over time assuming it doesn't break the interface in the PDA...
Rolls up into something more convient that the ordinary to carry around.
Universal compatibility with charging systems since it's plain USB (you can buy adapters to plug into a wall or car -- in fact, there are systems that can provide power to a USB device via a rechargable battery and this works with those as well as any adapter.)
Great price! Well, actually, it feels to me like it is priced at what its worth, but for some reason the usual price is around $20 or so which is ridiculous for just a charger/sync cable...
Cons:
Cable could be a little longer. I like to leave my PDA charging on a dresser, but I'm going to have to use an extention cord just to do this now.
USB ONLY. You can't plug in the standard charger that comes with the PDA for power. This wouldn't be so bad, but USB only allows up to 500mA per bus. I don't know exactly how much power the PDA uses while running, but it seems to be enough that you don't really get much if any of a charge while plugged into USB whereas the charger provides 2A of power so it easily lets the PDA run purely off of external power AND charge at the same time. But then I'm not entirely certain it can't still do this as the PDA surely can't use all of 500mA or its little 940mAh batter wouldn't last very long at all... |

| Works well |
| I love this cable - it allows me to connect any USB device to my PC. Works with my Palm. I bought it for iPAQ rx3400 and it works great. |
