This charger works. It is nice to have the retractable wiring. However, the connector piece occassionally gets lose and the charging connection gets interupted and/or disconnected. I constantly find myself finding my phone not charging. It sucks to have to keep an eye on the phone while driving to make sure its charging.
My review and rating are based on the fact that I never had the opportunity to use the product to charge my Palm Centro. Right out of the package, I decided to test the retractable feature, and when the connector hit the base of the unit, it sprung back so fast, the connector exploded. The force was so great that the wires in the connector were completely severed in the process. All the pieces were packed up today and sent back. Was a nice concept but won't be recommending this to others.
I tried to use this product, more than 30 days after receiving it. When I finally used it, It would not stay plugged in, kept turning off the charge. Would charge for a second then, cut off. Was totally useless. Overstock almost would not allow me to return, but then did issue a store credit. Customer service was good, product not so good.
I tried using this with my Palm Centro and it doesn't charge. The plug fits, but it doesn't charge.
Needed a charger for the car and this one works beautifully. Though packaging indicated the charger was for TREOs, the reviews (and fittings) match the T / X PDA from Palm - seems to take a little longer than the normal home charger but stays on even after my car is turned off (double-check that your car doesn
This charger works on the Palm Centro as well, even though it didn't advertise that when I bought it. The small adaptor piece can get lost easy in the car, but otherwise it works great!
This is one of the best deals I have personally found on Overstock. It works perfectly with my Palm Treo 680 and I LOVE the retractable cord! If my phone rings while it's plugged in, I can just pull the cord (with ease) to answer and leave the phone plugged in. I have had no problems whatsoever with the phone coming unplugged during use and I do use the included adapter to plug my phone into the charger - it has not come unplugged once from the adapter and I have used it extensively since I received it about 3 weeks ago. Highly recommend this product and you just can't beat the price!
The value was good, but the connector from the charger to the particular phone is a separate piece, and it comes off the end of the retractable line very easily. I am thinking of using super glue to connect it permanently, because I have already dropped it twice on the floor of my car.
I ordered this retractable cell phone charger and it's great. The car charger I had for my previous cell phone was fine, but when I wasn't using it, the cord just flopped all over (and even when I was using it, the phone sometimes would fly across the car if my turns were too sharp). So with this charger, I plug it into the phone and set it in the console, then retract the cord so it's short enough so there are no flying cell phones while I'm driving. And should I need to use it while it's charging, it's just an easy pull and the cord extends to just the length you need. Perfect!
This is exactly what I wanted for my Treo. The fact that it's retractable is great. It retracts to a small piece that stays in my car in my cupholder...no long cords to wrap or fray. When I want to use it, I pull out the cord and presto....a car charger.
