User Ratings and Reviews

2 Stars Specs not as advertised
I actually got this as a backup for my Kindle charger. According to the specs shown on the the adapter, it is 1000 MAH which is enough to power the kindle 2. It doesn’t. I gave the product 2 stars because it is not advertised as a kindle charger, but it does not have the output it says it does either.

5 Stars Just what I needed
It worked with my blackberry curve and LG VU CU920 data cables. Now I won’t panic if I forget the wall chargers to my phones. This is a lifesaver. Worked right out of the box (or bag…lol).

4 Stars Great little adapter
I would give it 5 stars because it has worked great for months since I have been using it. I connect the USB data cable for my blackberry to charge at work. This way I don’t need to carry the charger that comes with the phone and the data cable for times when I need to charge it in the car. I always carry the same cable and switch the adapter.

The only issue I have is with the quality of the adapter. It feels light and cheap. But that’s why the price is so good I guess.

Otherwise, no complaints!

3 Stars Not another AC to USB adapter
Unlike my other AC to USB adapters it will not charge a Razr V3.

I did not test it with any of their indicated devices.

5 Stars Great buy
My Sansa MP3 player gets recharged through my computer so if I am away from home and do not have a computer available, I could not charge it. This USB Travel Charger works perfectly with my MP3’s USB cable. I now use it all the time at home and I save money on electricity from not turning on my computer just to charge.

The best thing about this adapter is that it does not leave my MP3 player’s light on while charging. The light on my MP3 player stayed on while charging with my PC which is bad for the internal battery life. Also, stays on the last song that you listened to when removed. Very happy with this adapter and highly recommended it.

PalmOne m500 Handheld

The lightweight, stylish Palm m500 handheld is expandable, customizable, and Internet capable. The Palm m500 has an expansion card slot for additional memory storage (up to 64 MB) and add-ons such as a dictionary/thesaurus, games, and more. The Palm m500 comes with all the classic personal information management tools you expect: Date Book, Address Book, To Do List, Memo Pad, Mail, and Clock. It has 8 MB of built-in memory, enough to store thousands of addresses, years of appointments, hundreds of to-do items, and more than 50 applications.

The expansion card slot is a dual-purpose slot that can hold two types of cards: Secure Digital and MultiMediaCard (MMC). Both types of cards are small, inexpensive, and easy to plug in. Much like computer diskettes, they hold information for upload or download onto a handheld. With them, you can instantly add software programs, e-books, large databases, graphics, or even video files to your handheld without sacrificing memory space.

Sleek and lightweight, the Palm m500 handheld has a shiny aluminum casing and is curved to fit in your hand. The display’s enhanced technology makes it easier to see at all angles, in dim light, and in bright sunlight.

The new native USB HotSync cradle allows you to quickly back up and exchange information between your handheld and your PC or Mac. The Palm m500 handheld also features new vibrating and blinking LED alarms (in addition to the standard audible alarm) to help you stay on top of your busy schedule. The Palm m500 handheld comes equipped with a rechargeable lithium-ion polymer battery, which is charged using the HotSync cradle.

The Palm m500 handheld comes with Palm OS 4.0, which provides enhanced security and improved Internet connectivity. Other application features include Note Pad for writing sticky notes, Palm Mobile Connectivity for connecting to the Internet and obtaining e-mail via compatible cellular phones, and AOL for the Palm OS.

The Palm m500 handheld is PC and Macintosh compatible and requires a USB port. It comes with Palm desktop software for both PC and Macintosh. It has a one-year warranty.

What’s in the box

• Palm m500
• Stylus
• Rechargeable lithium-ion battery
• USB HotSync cradle
• Palm Desktop software for Windows and Macintosh and Palm Mobile Connectivity software

4 Stars Great Bargain
I would have rated this 5 stars, had it not had some Chinese decals and applications on it. I know that’s something minor that probably only would bother me though. For example, right beside the Palm logo on the upper left corner, there is a decal in Chinese. In addition, applications such as CJKOS and PenP are in Chinese as well. The essentials are in English though. I still think it was a great bargain. If you would like to see pictures of my Palm, just shoot me a message.

2 Stars Palm M500
the palm came in timely, the language was Japanese. It does not seem to want to charge up all the way.

4 Stars Palm m500
I purchased this PDA to replace one that stopped working properly. The new one arrived quickly, works well and was easily loaded with the programs and data from my old one thanks to Palm’s desktop programs. I am satisfied with the new unit. Note, that this is a backup PDA. I use it for a few applications but use my Dell Axim X3i for day-to-day work.

4 Stars Hard to find but worth the wait
I bought this to use with a program for truck parts. It works great with it.

4 Stars Good Stuff Menard
This hand held thermal unit is great and if you want to look like a Star Trek crew member, I suggest you buy it. You can store all your giganton information unit, all you need is a DSV modem which is an infra-red pattern. This also comes with a calculator, daily time sheet, 200 language selections, time, weather in 64 countries, web access, clip-board, cell phone gigatizer, daily planning book, and other receptive data bases that have little or no use.
