5.0 out of 5 stars Works with Touchstone on my Pre in the car!!!, June 14, 2009

This Palm charging cord will provide enough current to power the Touchstone charging dock in your vehicle. I initially tried this with a (top quality) Motorola micro USB car cord, and the charging cycled on and off continually (like every second!!!). There is a difference between cords, apparently, and the Touchstone system does require a higher current flow. I know that there are other cords that advertise high rate charging, but I haven't tried any of them yet.

5.0 out of 5 stars Works great, cord is shorter than wall charger's, August 16, 2009

I originally bought a Sprint-branded car charger, but its light started blinking erratically after a few charges, so I returned that and got this charger instead. This one works as advertised. The removable USB cable comes in handy when the battery is running low at work, and is a must-have if you're streaming Pandora or otherwise using the phone a lot. As for the charger, it's nice and compact. I've also noticed that it runs a lot cooler than the Sprint-branded one.

One teeny complaint is that the USB cable is rather short, so if you're plugging it into a desktop that's sitting on the floor, you may have trouble placing the phone on the table.

5.0 out of 5 stars Micro USB charger, July 13, 2009

Several nice features about this charger.

1. It is a USB cable that plugs into a car charger. I can thus take the cable out of my car and bring it into work and charge using my work desktop computer in case the battery is running low.

2. It works with my Motorola H710 headset. Now I don't have to fumble around changing the chargers while driving. I only have to have one charger plugged into the outlet.

3. There is an additional adapter that plugs into the micro usb port that allows one to charge a palm T/X. I can now remove the charger from my car for the palm T/X. Only one charger in the car!!! I still use my palm T/X as my MP3 player and for various other things. Anyone who has a palm pre knows how bad the battery sucks.

4. The price. I got mine for $20.83. Don't know what it is going for now, but I saved $10 off buying this in the store.

I'm very happy with the charger. I wish the battery on the pre didn't suck so bad, but that's not the chargers fault. Five stars
