For those of you looking for the Power To Go Charger at a reasonable price, PalmOne has a special on it right now. @ $49.95.

I wonder if there's enough room in my enfora case to leave one of these permanently connected? That and a bluetooth keyboard would make my mobile office complete. I guess I'll just have to pick one up and find out.

Out of stock, and not even a picture to try to identify what it is.

/sigh.

I could definately use the extended power, even in a day with my T3, but I have had nothing but problems with my "Palm Universal Connector". My connection is so weak that I cannot even use my sync cable without applying pressure during the sync. I can't imagine how this battery adaptor will be able to mount securely enough to actually use while charging. I'll be interested on feedback from anyone who tries it.

I've been using the Power To Go Sled for MONTHS! I have to say that its got to be the BEST thing I've bought in a long while. It very securely attaches to my T3. Once attached I can toss the two in my pocket or a bag or the seat of my car and not worry a bit about the connection coming loose.

The unit attaches to the universal connector at the bottom of the T3 and then the T3 snaps onto the it closer to the top via those two little wholes in the back. To do this you actually have to squeeze two buttons on either side of the Power To Go Sled. Two little latches emerge from the sled and very securely grab the T3. They won't let go until you squeeze the buttons again. And this in no way hampers the sliding abilities of the the T3. The result is the most secure connection I've ever had. Better than the connection I get on the cradle, and a MILLION times better then the connection I get with any travel charger or travel sync cables.

I can recharge my T3 from about 40% two times.

It has been worth every penny to me. I am thinking of buying a second one for the summer to take with me on camping trips!

Thanks Peppy. I think I'm sold. Is there another source inside the US that is selling at that price (mail order or store).

I got mine about a month ago at buy.com for $53 or thereabouts. That was my first time buying anything from them, and I was pleased with the service.

Just found it in stock at Newegg.com for $53.80 with free Fedex Saver shipping. Only $3.85 more than PalmOne if you need it now.
