More importantly, I ordered this serial cradle specifically because the USB cradle will not work with Windows NT (a grievance in itself with Palm, who just never bothered to do the work). We never got this cradle to sync with Windows NT; it never recognized a connection to the computer. I couldn't get the cradle to be recognized on my Windows XP laptop at home, either. I sent an e-mail to Palm asking for advice or help with this problem, and two weeks later have heard nothing. I plan to return the item as it was completely useless for my purposes.

Works flawlessly everyday for a two weeks already
I haven't experienced any of the problems others have written. I find it easy to position my Palm on the cradle. I have the original unit hooked up to my computer at home and bought this USB cradle for use at work and it's been working like a charm for 2 weeks. I hot-sync my Palm M515 throughout the day and carry it with me from meeting to meeting -- this cradle hasn't failed me yet.

Still can't work it
I can't get my Palm to configure w/my computer. I don't think it's the cradle though- I think it's the user. :) Palm does not fit very snuggly into the cradle. Bad design.

Bad fit for Palm m130
It's a shame Palm did not make a special cradle for the Palm m125 and m130, since the Palm is not very stable in this cradle. Perhaps they will release a special cradle in the near future. In the mean time, you might want to invest in a cable.
