I love this product!
User: Lee Carr, Jan 10, 2007
Pros: Great Multi for travel and syncing
Cons: -
I love this product. It's small for portability which is great when I travel and it charges my phone and sync's at the same time. I always hated the stupid wall chargers anyway. I had one for my Treo 600 and now am buying one for my 700w
Love this cable
User: Jeff Hackett, Jan 30, 2007
Pros: Works great, inexpensive, and compact
Cons: It is delicate
I have had one for several months and love it. I have had no problems with it. Works exactly as advertised. In fact, I am about to buy another one. It is delicate, so I am careful to not pull by the cord when I unplug it.
Convenient
User: Leonard Balk, Mar 8, 2007
Pros: It works
Cons: Poorly made
There is no question this is poorly made, the retractable part breaks within days. But the cable is small and I keep it in my laptop bag, it makes charging the phone easy because I do not carry the power cable with me. I always keep one with me.
Works well
User: Matt Kilpatrick, Jan 31, 2007
Pros: Retractable and relatively inconspicuous
Cons: -
Very Good not great. Though I cant find anything specifically wrong with the cable it seems that the phone connection could be a bit tighter. Other than that, a good product for the $$.
Fantastic Cable, but does wear out
User: Ken Quick, Aug 28, 2008
Pros: Compact - saves lots of space with DC & AC adapters
Cons: Wires weak at connectors - eventually break
Ive had this unit for close to two years and love it. It just stopped working (wires frayed inside insulator at PDA connector end. I travel a lot, and use this instead of car charger, wall charger, laptop sync cable with the two small DC & AC adapters. Definitely buying another one since no one makes a similar unit which is any more rugged.
You get what you pay for
User: David Yanke, Dec 19, 2006
Pros: Compact and usable with any case or skin
Cons: wire seems somewhat thin
The title says it all. There are trade-offs to the size and the retractable feature and here it is the thickness of the cable. This is not intended for heavy use, more for occasional use.

Unlike the previous comment, the retraction seems to work flawless, although I can see possible damage if you pull to hard after reaching the end.

Overall it is what I expected when I ordered it.
Worked great until it stopped working
User: Brian Alano, May 15, 2007
Pros: works as advertised
Cons: wore out; prone to jamming
Either there wasn't enough stress relief at the Treo end of the cable, or I was too hard on it. In any case after 18 months of frequent use the cable open-circuited. I attempted to clip off the damaged area and re-solder it, but it appears that the strands of the cable are individually insulated, and it was beyond my ken to repair it.

I suspect it is true of most retractable cable of this design that the mechanism jams if only one end is extracted. I was always able to clear the jam, though.
middle of the road
User: todd ,, May 5, 2007
Pros: functional and cheap
Cons: broke but rigged for extended life
Like most everyone else, mine broke within a week or so. The clicking lock part broke and I took it out. I now tie a knot in one side of the cord while it is fully extended so the cables stay out. It charges and syncs my 650 with no problems. I have owned this cable for well over 2 years and use it daily. I wouldn't worry about the cable.. it is sturdy for its size.

The spring that coils the cord back still works just fine.
Sync Cable not very rugged
User: Tim Epperson, Oct 15, 2007
Pros: convienent
Cons: not very rugged
I am on my fourth Sync and Charge Cable. Two have quit retracting and the Treo connector broke on the third one. Yes, I use it a lot! However, since the thing does retract and is portable, one would think that they would be tested for that sort of thing.
Useless
User: Virgil Starkwell, Dec 8, 2006
Pros: None
Cons: Broke in 5 min.
Right out of the box, I pulled the ends and it extended. Then I tried to retract and all the wires got tangled up inside. I spent the best part of a hour trying to untangle it and fix it. I ended up just removing the retraction mechanism altogether and now use it as a plain of cable. The cable itself is VERY thin (only 1mm x 2.5mm cross section) and I don't think it will last very long before breaking or getting chewed up in a laptop bag.
Did not function
User: Alexei Budsan, Dec 29, 2006
Pros: Nice design, like the Sync button
Cons: Does not work with 650s it appears
I was excited about upgrading my sync charger to this one but when I plugged it in, my XP said there was any issue with the device. I was however able to charge but not sync it. I went back to my older charger/sync and it worked fine. I called support and they said it was not properly plugged in, I checked several times including "jiggling it" as the rep said and no sycn. Either I got a bad one or it has problems with the Treo 650.
Broke by the 3rd time I used it
User: Alex D, Dec 30, 2006
Pros: ?
Cons: Cheap plastic hastily slapped together
I should have known better the second I opened it. The glue was not even dry on the private label badge that was applied to outside. Today as I was unplugging it the plastic guide bent and went white. Just like cheap plastic used to. What a waste of money. Not happy with either treocentral purchase as both items (case) broke within days.
