4.0 out of 5 stars Better than the HotSync Cable!, December 13, 2000

By	Arturo "mechdig" (Guatemala, CA) - See all my reviews

I recommend this accessorie for you Palm M100. It's better than the HotSync Cable since it gives you a place to put your Palm. But I only give it 4 stars since it should have came instead of the HotSync Cable when you buy the Palm M100. I really do not understand why you need to buy the Cradle in the Palm M100, when in the other Palms is not an accessorie. If you have the money and want to have a base station for you Palm M100, then buy it......if not, then I recommend you to stay with the HotSync Cable and save your money for other accessories.

5.0 out of 5 stars Neat Freaks Unite!, January 28, 2001

By	Chad A. Lauterbach "chadl2" (Los Angeles, CA USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This Cradle is designed specifically for your Palm m100. It looks neat on your desk all by itself, and even better with the palm in it. It should be noted that it works in EXACTLY the same manner as the cable functionally. It is the same speed and does the same thing. But if you are like me having your Palm on your desk with this goofy cable coming out of it is annoying. And as soon as you take the cable out it falls behind your desk never to be seen again. This gives your Palm a place to rest, it doesn't fall behind your desk, and it is easier to get the Palm in and out of this than using that cable thing they give. Highly recomend, wish it just came with it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Better than the cable, November 28, 2003

By	Sara Swihart (Fort Wayne, Indiana, USA) - See all my reviews (TOP 1000 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)

My Palm m100 came with the hot sync cable, which does what it is supposed to do must of the time (it usually takes 3-4 tries to get it to sync with my Palm and PC). This cradle is much easier to use and I wish I didn't have to but it separately. I just stand my Palm in the cradle, press the button and let it work its magic. It is also a great place to keep my Palm without having to worry about it falling off the desk.

I would recommend getting this if your Palm doesn't come with one. For me, at least, it has just been much easier to use.

If you have a 'busy' desk like I do, I used a 2-sided adhesive to keep the cradle in place.
