User Submitted Palm 3198WW Cradle Kit Reviews (cont...)Date: 2006-07-28 Terrible -- 2 died. In concept a great device. Cradle and spare battery charger in 1. Unfortunately, there must be something faulty in the connections inside. I've had 2 die on me. And it's not the cable -- that works fine when taken out of the cradle. This is a ripoff. Date: 2006-07-19 The Real Thing These were not available (backordered) when I first got my Treo. I bought a different one which began to fall apart after a few months. The quality of this one is excellent and I expect it to last much better. The Amazon price was no more than the cheapy I bought. Don't bother with the other ones as this is twice as good as they are. Date: 2006-07-10 Great accessory! If you have more than one battery for the Treo 700w (or I suppose any of the other listed models) then this is a must-have. It not only comes along with an additional sync and power cable (so your orriginal can be used at work or when traveling), but it has a compartment for charging a second battery. If you have a case for the treo, (I have the Seidio rubber skin) the Treo will not fit in the cradle until you remove the case (which is annoying) but at least I can charge an external battery. It's a well made, heavy device. The cabling has separate connections for power and sync, so you can choose to have one or both connected. The connections are loosely pressure-fit, so if you pull on the cradle to sharply, they fall out. Date: 2006-07-08 No problems I thought the price Amazon was ofering this at was crazy ($25): at the same time, the Palm store wanted $50 for the same thing. The reviews being so divided worried me. But, I ordered it. Works fine; synchs, charges; no problems. I haven't used any of the adapters. Date: 2006-06-08 All those problems???? Worked perfectly with my 700P right out of the box. The light on the cradle is supposed to only come on when charging an extra battery. The Treo light changes to red when it is charging. Came with sync cable and power cable as the description said it would. Both my Treo and extra battery charge perfectly well in this cradle. Syncs everytime, too. Not sure why so many have had problems. Maybe, Palm has redesigned the cradle since they had theirs.
