Geek.com's Duel of Two Sync Cables
Posted by Brad Adrian in "ARTICLE" @ 03:01 AM
Call me strange (and I know you do), but I haven't used the synch cradles for any of my Pocket PCs for over a year. Ever since I started using combo synch/charge cables I've never gone back to using a bulky cradle.
Here's an article on the Geek.com site that can help you decide between some of the various synch/charge cables out there. It's a mini-review of a six-foot cable from Surplus PDA and a retractible one from Proporta. They each have pros and cons, so see what you think. Personally, I like the retractible kind, mostly because they are so much more pocketable.
Note: The article mentions that the Surplus PDA cables have an on/off switch and "hotsynch" button, but a check of their site shows that the Pocket PC versions only have (obviously) the on/off switch.
