PalmOne Recharging USB Hotsync Cable
- Recharge your handheld and HotSync its data with your PC, both at the same time
- Connects to your computer's USB port
- Includes power adapter for your vehicle's cigarette lighter
- Charging times may vary according to the battery capacity of your handheld and available USB power
- Compatible with Zire 71, m500 Series, i705, m130, m125 (HotSync Only)
Notice that I wrote "once connected", as that is much easier said than done. The two very small clips barely hang on to the Palm when attached, so the slightest jostle can disrupt the connection. The other reviewers weren't kidding when they stated that you have to use this on a flat undisturbed surface so that the connection can be maintained. I always have to check that the green light on the Palm is actually on, even though it may look like the cable is seated properly. I also agree that the flismy design of the clips make it a real possibility that they can break off with regular use.
Palm really needs to do a better job of designing its accessories.

Well I was excited to get this item because my deskspace at work is limited and I just wanted to have a small cord for syncing and charging that I could easily put away when I didn't need it. First couple times I used it, it worked fine. Now after maybe a couple months (and maybe a dozen uses, if that) the connection has gotten loose and it won't sync at all. It will still charge the unit (somewhat), but I have to fiddle around with the cord on my desk and make sure the green light on my palm is on so I know it's actually connected properly.Palm sould really be ashamed at themselves for some of the crappy accessory items they make. I mean, is it so hard to make a sync cord that works? Very dissapointing. I gave it two stars only because it will still charge the unit...and sometimes that alone is useful when I'm at work and don't have a cradle handy.
UPDATE: A couple days after I posted my original review, the cord stopped connecting well enough to even charge the unit. This sync cord is utter crap, don't buy it!!!

I've had this item for about six months and have experienced no problems with it. I use it for syncing at the office, and it charges too. I have a Zire 71 and have no trouble with it seating. It doesn't 'lock in' like a wall plug, but then, it is not a wall plug! Set your PDA and the sync end on a flat surface and plug 'em together ... voila! Push the button, and it syncs. Leave it attached, and it charges. The car outlet connector is an added bonus, as you can charge you PDA while you drive. It accepts any USB connector, so it works with those USB cell phone sync/charge cables too. No muss, no fuss.Want PalmOne Recharging USB Hotsync Cable Discount?
I've had this for less than a month, and already one of the 2 metal contacts has broken off. I bought the cable after reading the reviews on the cradle, which said it was awkward to fit the Palm into the cradle and that the cable would work better. I find the cable fit is tenuous at best (even with both contacts), and the fact that I'm already going to have to get a new one (or a cradle instead) is not a good sign.The high point: It works.The low point: It isn't the most robust design with the clips and contacts exposed to the world. An extension on the underside would help protect the contacts.
In the end, it is inexpensive, and does just what it claims to. Just give it a safe home in your laptop bag so the clips or contacts don't snag on anything and don't try to use it while jogging.

2nd Generation Audio FM Transmitter / Internet Music Adapter plus integrated Car Charger for the Mot
- Transmits clear and rich audio for over 30 feet while recharging your Motorola DROID
- Uses Digital PLL sound coding technology to maintain stable and high fidelity sound quality. Can operate between 88.1 to 107.9 MHz
- TipExchange tip included for your [DEVICE]. TipExchange technology (tip is included) protects investment with easy upgrades
- Quality backed by Gomadic Lifetime Warranty
- Optimized for use with Internet music services such as Pandora; Slacker; Rhapsody and more!
Driving, I frequently use internet radio or listen to podcasts while using the navigation GPS built in to my Droid. I was frustrated with barely hearing the built in speakers. The FM transmitter & charger works simultaneously as advertised, despite the other reviewer's comment. I am pleased with the functionality, and simplicity and the transmission sounds clear. The only weak link I can tell is possibly the cord leading to the phone. It seems a bit flimsy. I have not had any problems with it so far so it's probably just cosmetic.
Overall if you own a Droid and want to charge it while streaming Pandora to you're FM car stereo I would highly recommend this product.I have been using this product for about a week, in conjunction with the OEM Window Mount, to listen to Pandora and use Google Navigation while driving. So far the product appears to work very well and as advertised it charges the phone, and the sound quality is good when you set it to a clear station with no interference (much better quality than I was expecting for a FM transmitter, anyways). I would highly recommend this product for anyone else who like me has a Droid, but does not have bluetooth or an aux port on their car stereo.I own a Motorola Droid phone with Verizon Service.
I listen to talk radio and talk podcasts. I had been plugging in one ear bud while driving. It was OK but not great.
I live in Los Angeles and the FM band is pretty full. I found the cleanest area on the dial to tune the unit. I get a slight high-end hum, which is noticeable, but not a deal breaker. I found that I can minimize it by turning the volume up on the phone.
I was not crazy about the Droid charging pin sticking out about 3" with the adapter because of the way I mount my Droid on the windshield. Again not a deal breaker but it would have been nice if it didn't stick out so far.
Another use I found for the system is to plug in to the car's built in DVD player. Normally the kids in our carpools are rambunctious. With a Scooby Doo cartoon playing, I don't hear a peep out of them.
For me the unit was worth the price and I would purchase it again. My experience it that it works as advertised contrary to the #1 critical review. You can both listen to and charge your Droid phone.This item shipped quickly. I received it in 4 or 5 days. It does a good job broadcasting the music from my Droid to the car radio, but there is some hiss when you hit quiet parts of the music. I may eventually upgrade to a car stereo with an input jack, since that would greatly improve the quality of sound. This is still a good product and you can also use it as a car charger for your phone!the adapter works without any problems as long as you find a good frequency. a bonus is that transmits all audio to your speakers, so you can use it for voice calls too.

LandWare GoType Portable Keyboard for PalmPilot & Palm III/VII
- For PalmPilot, Palm III series, and Palm VII series--as well as IBM WorkPad and TRGpro
- Connects directly via docking port
- Designed for low power drain, no batteries required
- 6 user-defined function keys
- Includes popular TakeNote word processor and WordSleuth thesaurus
Buy LandWare GoType Portable Keyboard for PalmPilot & Palm III/VII Now
This keyboard is an excellent addition to the Palm PDA. It is best used for taking notes on the fly and junking all the notepaper usually used in paper organizers. It also makes access to special symbols faster when you are using your Palm in the field. Several functions are also available via Shift or Alt (Toggle backlight, Cut, Copy, Paste, Details, etc). It even has two holes at each upper corner to temporarily store the stylus for later access. I rated it four out of five, for the following reasons: 1) It monopolizes the periperhal port (it would be great to attach a modem to this particular keyboard while it is attached); 2) I would really like to have had Home/End functionality similar to a real keyboard. Otherwise, I recommend it to people who find themselves answering e-mails with their Palm or for those who don't want to lug around a laptop.Read Best Reviews of LandWare GoType Portable Keyboard for PalmPilot & Palm III/VII Here
I was all psyched to buy the much heralded Palm Portable Keyboard, waiting four months for the privledge. In the meantime, I borrowed my boss's GoType, just to use something in the meantime. I wasn't expecting much, but it turned out to be a great keyboard! I could type just as fast on these 3/4 sized keys as on a regular keyboard, and its rugged case made it a solid product.When I finally got my Palm Portable Keyboard and tried it out, it wasn't as good, primarily because it was somewhat flimsy and had a noticable delay during my typing.
The GoType's not perfect (sometimes you slip on the small keys), but it's very effective as a laptop replacement for word processing.
Want LandWare GoType Portable Keyboard for PalmPilot & Palm III/VII Discount?
When I bought my Palm Pilot two years ago...it revolutionized my life! Okay, maybe that's a little strong. But I found that the amount of "stuff" I needed to carry on the road decreased considerably.This portable keyboard takes it to the next level. I find myself taking notes in meetings using the keyboard. I can then copy and paste these notes into email for easy distribution. Graffitti works but this keyboard makes input to(and therefore usefulness of) the Palm Pilot even more efficient. The carrying case (also available on Amazon.com) makes toting the keyboard and PDA very easy.
I'll never go back to taking notes on paper again!I bought the LandWare GoType! keyboard for my Palm IIIe organizer, and I was pleased with the results.
1. The keyboard is small and lightweight, making it easy to carry. It even has a handle that pulls out of the back which provides support while typing, and can be a carrying utensil also. 2. It has shortcut buttons to certain programs on your Palm that you can even reprogram. For example, one button can take you right to your Memo Pad, and another can take you to your address book, etc.
3. One thing I didn't really like was that it was small, and a little bit cramped. After typing on a normal keyboard, going to the smaller keyboard is a little hard. The keys are very small, and the shift key is in an inconvenient place. 4. This is a good keyboard because it has a protective cover that flips up, and while protecting the keyboard, it also provides support for the Palm organizer to rest against while you're typing, so the organizer doesn't fall out.
This is a great product, and I'd recommend it.

rooCASE Super Bubble Neoprene Sleeve Case Cover for Gateway 11.6-Inch LT3119u Netbook (Black / Orang
In reality, this is just a standard netbook bag that fits netbooks ostensibly up to the size of the LT3119u. Unfortunately, since the case is **NOT** specifically for the LT3119u, the large battery pack on the outside makes this case just a notch too small for the Gateway LT3119u (hahah!). But, it is neoprene, so you can sort of stretch it around to fit, but it is most definitely not a custom-designed fit for this netbook.
But whatever. The case ITSELF (modulating out for the seller's implication of a custom fit) is very nice quality and will protect my netbook just fine.

- Not Interfere with Touch screen Technology
This was actually my second attempt with this protector. I thought I may have done something wrong when I applied it so I ordered another one but I had the same problem. When the second one arrived, I could see the same 1/16" to 1/8" of the protector was also not sticking to the plastic backing on which Lexerd had applied it for shipping. It's some kind of design or manufacturing flaw. Whatever "adhesive" they use is either not present around the perimeter or is not as strong as it is on the rest of the protector.

Dell Axim X5 400 MHz Pocket PC
- 400 MHz Intel XScale Processor, 64 MB of RAM, and 48 MB ROM
- Brilliant 3.5" high-resolution transflective 65,000 color display
- Integrated CompactFlash Type II and Secure Digital/MultiMediaCard slots to add storage or wireless communication cards
- Built-in microphone, speaker, and stereo headphone connector
- What's in the box: Axim X5, Stylus, Sync cradle, AC Adapter, 1440 mAh Lithium-Ion battery
I bought the Axim because it is the best PDA option right now. The color and design of the Axim and cradle are beautiful. I was glad to learn that I can input text in four ways: with the on-screen keyboard, by writing regular print letters, by writing Graffiti letters (perfect for old Palm users like me), or with a special transcriber that lets you write anywhere on the screen and then converts your handwriting to text (and it works fairly well.)
Another big selling point for me was the Compact Flash slot, which allows me to add hardware peripherals. I already ordered a Linksys 802.11b Wi-fi card so I can get on the Internet at home and on campus, and the Axim and Linksys card together will be much less expensive than the Toshiba e740 or any other wireless PDA. The Axim also has a Secure Digital memory card slot like most other PDA's.
I can sync my Outlook contacts, calendar, tasks, memos, and e-mail inbox, plus Microsoft Money. When the Wi-fi card arrives, I won't even need to put the Axim in its cradle to synchronize; I'll be able to synchronize over the wireless network. I have also installed Adobe Acrobat reader and an e-book reader.
I'm thinking about making my next computer a Mac, so I was glad to find out that there is third-party software to synchronize a Pocket PC with a Mac (pocketmac.net).
I don't like the feel of the Axim's buttons. The circular dial-pad seems flimsy and just doesn't "click" well. The scroll button on the left side of the Axim is also flimsy. The record button is kind of small.
I have never liked Microsoft Outlook, but in anticipation of the arrival of the Axim, I have been using it for the past couple weeks just hoping that I could bear it once my PDA arrived. In my opinion, Outlook is too complicated and its Pocket PC counterparts are too simple. For instance, on the Pocket PC you can't add all-day appointments to your calendar you have to do it on the PC and then synchronize. Also, you can only sort your task list by one attribute (date, or priority, etc.) instead of two (date then priority, or category then date, etc.) like on a Palm. You can't filter the task list to show only the tasks due today. (To Pocket PC's credit, you can classify each task with more than one category.) You can't mark memos as private.
The Pocket PC also brings with it some headaches we often associate with Microsoft products: the bloat of numerous operating system files, and occasional error messages like "such-and-such program is not responding...." I never saw any of that on my Palm.
Palm products are superior in the PIM (Personal Information Management) department. I will miss Palm's calendar, contacts, to-dos, and memos. However, since I was in the market for a PDA and I wanted "multimedia" functions, the price difference between the Axim and the Palm Tungsten steered me towards the former. And Pocket PC's really are ready for multimedia right out of the box. Finally, the Axim's Compact Flash slot put it above all the other Pocket PCs for me.
I'll be delighted if I can find a good, third-party PIM software package. Further, the idea of being able to add, for instance, a GPS card and track my current geographical position on a map, or any other useful Compact Flash card, makes me glad I bought the Axim. In the meantime, I'll have plenty of fun with what I've got.
Buy Dell Axim X5 400 MHz Pocket PC Now
I finally got my Axim X5 from Dell recently and I simply love the thing. It met and surpassed every expectation I had. The price is incredibly low, and there's almost no trade off what so ever from devices twice the price. It's an incredible deal. The size doesn't bother me one bit, and it fits very well in my jacket pocket.The Dell runs just about anything I can throw at it, and it does it at an incredible speed. Having used only a Jornada 525 previously, I'm amazed at the 400mhz Xscale. Pocket TV plays video so smooth it's plain incredible. Video easily plays 3x faster than my Jornada. Games run fast and smooth, not even a hint of frame skip. The buttons are responsive, easy to use, and support multiple presses at once. This is wonderful, as so many in the past have failed to listen to what gamers really want. Dell listened, and they did it right.
The screen is bright and clear, not a hint of anything less than perfection. Using headphones, the sound is loud and completely static free. It could easily replace my Nomad II MP3 player if need be. Too many people whine about the size... get over it. If you want an ultra thin device, this isn't for you. So simply move on and go whine to someone else. I myself am just fine with the Dell's size, it's price and specs more than make up for it. Anyone willing to pay more to get much less is missing something in my book. Size can be important, sure, but only to a point. The Dell is no bigger than the high end Ipaqs and is in fact much smaller than an Ipaq with a CF sleeve. What more could you possibly ask for.
Basically the Axim will run just about the same as any other 400mhz Xscale out there, which will run just about the same as any 300mhz Xscale out there, both of which will probably run about the same as any 200mhz ARM out there... which all means you're not gonna notice a big difference in anything at all. Some programs will run better than others, it's a case by case thing. The vast majority will run 98% the same.
Now, to really notice a difference you'd have to be doing like me... going from a 133mhz Jornada 525 to a 400mhz Axim. There's a nice speed boost for ya. I've went from 6 fps on Pocket TV to 24 fps. From 2-3 fps on large video with no landscape support, to 18 fps full screen landscape. I'm sure with time and tweaking I'll have that at 24 easily.
See, the big joy of the Axim is what it offers that so many others don't. Dual slots are a wonderful thing to people like me. The screen is lovely. The sound is crisp. They come with a 1yr VERY fast replacement warranty. That's unreal. Incredibly long battery power, longer life ones to come, replaceable battery, spare charging slot, coolest sync cradle ever... the list is huge. Toss in $... worth of free software in the form of the top selling Rosco Picture Viewer and IA Presenter (PowerPoint viwer). All for a price that's half of what the Ipaq owners paid.
I simply love my Axim. I admit, I don't do much mobile computing and I would never make full use of a laptop. I'm simply never far enough away from a desktop computer to need a laptop. The Axim however, fits the need perfect. I've got a small device to store every bit of information I could ever need, and it's completely portable. It doesn't replace a PC, it enhances it. I can do things with my Pocket PC I would have an incredibly hard time doing with even the smallest of notebook computers.
A typical usage of the Pocket PC for me is while waiting in lines, or just waiting in general. I've got several amazingly fun games stored to play, ebooks to read, music to listen to, websites to read (news, weather, tech, stocks), and much more. I also use it to keep track of all my tasks, appointments, assignments, notes, and alarms. The Dell comes with Rosco Picture Viewer, so I store photos of friends and family. (I'm not the type to carry pictures in his wallet) I also carry my entire art gallery. Sometimes I use it to reflect, sometimes to use as reference, sometimes to show. For whatever reasons, it's there when I need it.
Basically Pocket PC's have filled a deep need in my day to day life for mobile information. I always longed for a laptop, but now that I've used Pocket PC's I no longer believe I need one. I love Pocket PC's and the Dell is by far the best one I've owned, and in my opinion, the best deal on the market today without question.

Before you buy the Dell Axim PocketPC, be sure to ask the seller what operating system it runs and what ROM version it has. Avoid getting one that runs Windows Mobile 2003 OS and has a ROM version of A04, which, according to many users including myself, is a defective configuration that causes tremendous slowdown. If you get one with WM2003, be sure it has a ROM version of A05, which is the fix Dell provided in Sept '03 to eliminate the slowdown. If you still want to buy a WM2003 A04 unit, be sure to contact Dell to send you a ROM update to A05 on CD (you can only get this update from the CD, and not via download). Dell also automatically sends this CD update to those who bought an A04 unit. So, ask your seller if he or she already got this CD from Dell. Of course, you can always order a new Axim directly from Dell, because as of now, Dell is only shipping the fixed, WM2003 A05 units.After updating to A05 ROM, everything runs faster on the Axim. Programs like MS Reader and certain games like Hexacto's Bounty Hunter Pinball, which ran very sluggishly with A04 ROM, are much faster and much more usable. Browsing in File Explorer and contact list also no longer takes an eternity.
PocketPCs have become increasingly versatile the last few years. They are no longer just electronic address and appointment books, but devices that can run a variety of add-on software -book readers, music players, video players, networking utilities, web browsers, GPS viewers, database viewers, etc. Their biggest advantage AND disadvantage, however, is their small size. Although much easier to carry than laptop PCs, their small screen size sometimes makes it difficult to view or to key in material. The miniature batteries that they use also are unable to generate long-lasting power. The Dell Axim PocketPC, which has one of the better battery packs, only can offer about 8 hours of continuous use. It uses significantly more power while running Wi-Fi or multimedia applications. It also uses a little bit of power while turned off in order to retain memory content. If the power runs out, all your data will be lost.
One inconvenience in WM2003 is that, to check battery status, you have to tap the screen a few times to go into the Power Settings screen. Some third-party utilities show you an on-screen battery indicator. You can also use the Dell "Switcher Bar" utility, pre-installed on the Axim, to quickly switch to the Power Settings screen.
The Dell Axim 400 MHz PocketPC and the cheaper, earlier 200 MHz model are the only two PocketPCs Dell has made, but they have surged in popularity because of their low prices. The Axim 400MHz has an admittedly "bare" configuration out of the box. It does not come with Wi-Fi nor Bluetooth connectivity, and includes only a few full-version software titles: Pocket Word, Pocket Excel, MS Reader, Internet Explorer, Pocket MSN, Windows Media 9, a terminal service client, a picture viewer, and a few simple games.
The Dell Axim runs on a rechargeable and detachable main and backup batteries. The included cradle is able to simultaneously recharge the Axim and another battery (if you ever decide to buy another battery pack). You can also recharge the Axim with the included DC power cable.
The cradle is also used for transferring and/or synchronizing data between the Axim and your desktop PC. You need to install the provided ActiveSync 3.7 and Outlook 2002. ActiveSync 3.7 is required for WM2003, and it can be downloaded on the Microsoft web site. It allows you to view the content inside the Axim in an Explorer view, lets you drag and drop files to or from it, and lets you synchronize content between Outlook and the PocketPC. Outlook 2002, the desktop personal organizer software, is a commercial product and cannot be downloaded on the web. And it needs to be activated to be used, and cannot be re-activated on the same PC without contacting Microsoft. If you buy the Axim from a seller, make sure he or she hasn't already activated it.
The Dell Axim is rather heftly. It weighs about 7 ounces, and almost 3/4 inch thick. So it may be difficult to put it in your shirt pocket or in your trousers.
Regarding the brightness of the Axim's color screen, in an office with strong fluorescent light sources, it is barely adequate, in my opinion, even at the highest brightness setting. Under direct sunlight, it is nearly impossible to see. If you use the Axim outdoors a lot, this may be a problem. The screen looks best under incandescent lights or low-light conditions. (Those who have used old Palm devices with monochrome displays will find this amusing: monochrome displays look best under bright lights and worst in low-light conditions, and color displays are just the reverse.)
To make data entry easier, the Axim includes hand-writing recognition ability and Graffiti recognition for former Palm users. You can also use the on-screen qwerty-style keyboard. A stylus is also included.
If you use the stylus to poke and scratch on the screen a lot, consider getting a screen protector. The screen is a vital and fragile part of the Axim or any PocketPC and is prone to damage. You can buy professionally-made screen protectors, or you can make your own like I do -I use an Avery transparent laminate and slide it into the little openings at the edges of the screen.
The Axim has a built-in clock and alarm, but one annoyance is that the alarm doesn't always ring, even after the A05 ROM fix. This is reportedly a bug in WM2003 (i.e. a Microsoft problem). However, I found a freeware alarm called "StopTime" that does the job nicely.
Want Dell Axim X5 400 MHz Pocket PC Discount?
I bought an Axim 5 performance 2 months ago, about when they were first available. It replaced another pocket pc (I won't name the brand, but they are listed as a cutting edge maufacturer.)It arrived in a large unmarked brown box with everything packed inside in smaller boxes. I also ordered the High Capacity battery with it, which proved to be unnecessary (I should have just got the extra regular capacity battery at no cost, as the battery life is phenomeninal.) I gave it it's first charge, and since I had Active Sync 3.6 already installed, I hooked her up. Problem number 1: no connection. Had to delete partnership and establish new partnership.
With everything sync'ed, I tried her out. Good form factor: the Axim has a rep as a "brick" but I thought it had a good hand fit (I didn't really want the smallest pda on the block anyway, I wanted something a little more substantial.) It has rubber grips on either side of a silver colored case that feels like metal. Large well-lit TFT screen (not quite as bright as an IPaq's, but then what is?) the regulation program buttons and a D-pad. The D-pad was kind of mushy but it worked pretty well anyway. The speaker is off to the right and covered by a metal grill. I have used it now for 2 months at work and home (I'm a pharmacist and have 2 drug databases loaded and I'm an avid reader of eBooks, having purchased over 260 titles at Fictionwise.com) it has proved to be a rock-solid performer and I have had to soft reset just 2-3 times in those 2 months. I had to hard rest once, because I use a stong alpha-numeric password that I forgot once. The hard reset is the only way to clear the unit if you forget your password.
The Axim performance uses the Intel XScale processor with stepped tech to raise or lower processor speed according to use.
This conserves battery power. I leave mine at 200mh most of the time, increasing to 400mh if playing a game or two. Usually I just leave it in automatic mode which adjusts the processor speed accordingly.
The mushy D-pad has a fix which I just downloaded from Dell's site. It is a rom upgrade (incredibally easy to implement) which also allows further refinements on the adjustment of processor speed and speeds up the power on function and the battery light.
I am something of a pda geek having owned 3 palms and 2 pocket pc's and can say that this is one of the best I've ever owned. I read reviews on new products constantly and haven't found anything that offers the same features and performance for this price, even on reviews of items that were rated much higher.The Dell Axim is one of the best deals for a Pocket PC I have seen in a long time. Not only is this Pocket PC powerfull, but it has two expansion slots which you can use for memory and accessories. The screen colors are brilliant, and I feel this is one of the best Pocket PCs on the market. The only downfall that this Pocket PC does have is that it is slightly large. However, it's rival Compaq which has the same specs (no Secure Digital/MultiMediaCard slot) is the same size, but nearly twice the price. So if you are going to be buying a Pocket PC, I think Dell is the way to go.

Portable Emergency AA Battery Charger Extender for the Coby Kyros MID7127 - with Gomadic Brand TipEx
When using the Coby tablet the green indicator shows how much battery power is left. When it gets near the bottom it turns red and gives a message to plug in the charger. When it's on the charger, the indicator is in motion to indicate that it is charging and how much is charged.
This battery unit doesn't work that way. It is so easy to use. I just inserted the four AA cells and then plugged it into the charger socket. It doesn't charge the internal batter but simply switches to the external one and shows full power. I still have to charge the internal battery with the charger but that can be done later. Great unit, just love it

DURAGADGET Car 12v Cigarette Lighter Charger For New Samsung Galaxy Tab P1000 / ARM Cortex A8 1GHz /
- Uprated 2A Charger for the Samsung Galaxy Tab
- Charge your TAB in the car
- Use your existing Galaxy Tab Cable
- Glass fuse to ensure safety
However yesterday I found it could charge an Ipad2. Also I found that many other chargers and computer USB could not charge the Galaxy Tab when it was turned on but could be charged when off. So I guess it was not the problem of the charger, it might be some interal setting inside the Galaxy Tab.The device claims to have a 2A out on both USB ports, but either Duragadget failed to set the proper resistances to ID the outputs to the Tab as a 2A max draw or it simply isn't putting out 2A, as the Galaxy Tab will only recognize it as a USB trickle-charge (charging icon will have a red X, and it thinks it's been connected to a USB port and will offer to turn on mass storage mode). Technically, the Galaxy Tab will still gain charge in this mode, at least if it's powered off, but not quickly, as a 2A charger should. In that half-charging mode, it may even slightly drain even when plugged in, depending on CPU and screen draw.

These work great as a stylus...and it doesn't hurt that there is a pen inside.The pen is easy enough to open and the stylus stays in well.
The only problem is that the pen may run out of ink quickly from extended use...and you have to get the ink flowing after extended periods of non-use.

A brief history. I bought the original stylus with pen from a bricks & mortar a few years ago. I gave one away to a friend. And then, last week, lost the second one in the abyss, known as my car, while killing time at the drive through. Please note, I was NOT using my treo while actively driving.I ordered the three styli on Monday Pacific time. It arrived Thursday. Pretty good. However, when I went to find the pen part, I only found the part you use for a hard reset. When I called the vendor and told them my dilemma, the girl on the other end assured me they always inspect their products, and that the stylus did have a ball point pen. It was just on the other end, and difficult to get off at first.
After pulling and twisting it apart with a wrench and pair of pliers, I found she was right.
The product is basically(literally) a Chinese nock off, and the pen cap didn't go back on completely. I don't blame the vendor, however. I do blame Palm for not supplying proper accessories for their products. In short, I'll be keeping my eyes peeled for my lost stylus.

It screws in easily and has firm articulation--it's stays at whichever angle I point it. I paid $12.77 at the time... the same listing is now $3.45. Can't complain about $12, but if you need an antenna and can still get it for basically what equates to the change found in your couch cushions, go for it.This has fit every Cisco AP I've tried to use it on. It is OEM and is designed for the Cisco wireless access points.

This is not what I thought it would be! The cut out of this product didn't go with my tablet. I liked the color. I'm still using it!Its a good case for the Lenovo, it fits and everything but there is no hole for the power cable to recharge the tablet. In order to recharge the tablet you have to remove it from the case. I've flipped it and everything but cannot get the power hole to line up with a slot in the case.Want NEW! Folio Stand PU Leather Case Cover for Lenovo 7" IdeaTab S2007 Tablet Pink Discount?
This case did not fit the Lenovo ideapad a2107a although that is what I put in the search box. It was not worth returning so I just bought one that did fit.The case was very nice and was shopped very fast. I just ordered the incorrect size. I would recommend to others.
