Query: Nice portable alternative to the hot-sync cradle, but.....

This cable is a great portable alternative to the hot-sync cradle that comes with the Jornada, which tends to be bulky and difficult to carry. And while it functions just like the cradle, it allows you to charge your PDA directly from the computer/lap-top's USB port.However, there is one shortcoming. Obviously, the level of power that the USB port provides is much less than that of a regular wall outlet. Consequently, charging time is greatly increased. because of this, I would only recommend the cable for travel when you can't bring the hotsync along.
