This idea suites me better coz when Im out camping its not really possible to charge from the mains. This would let me stop of at a shop and buy a pack of AA batteries and charge my PDA (or mobile phone).
Would it charge the UX well when used with a USB charge cradle (http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Sony-CLIE-UX5...1QQcmdZViewItem)
| Yes. Quote:
Does it charge the UX pretty much the same as when used with the standard cradle?
| Almost the same, sometimes it's clicking if the connection is not right.
It should be possible to mod your JC40 to add a miniUSB plug. |
