For Sale: Official Palm Hot Sync cables !!!
 
When I first got my Rtek the only hotsync cable I could get my hands on was some cheap chinese crap. That lasted about a month before wires started coming out of the palm side of the plug. (oddly enough, it didn't continued syncing until half the wires had come out).

Fortunately I was able to find a little electronics store going out of business and picked up this box of Genuine Palm cables. The construction is much more sturdy and I no longer have to worry about disconnects while logging, or wires pulling out.

Price is $16 shipped to the upper 48 --while supplies last, lol.

"This cable is 4’ long and is compatible with all Palm handhelds EXCEPT Palm III, V, VII series handhelds, and the Palm m100 and m105 handhelds"

This can't be accurate.

They are Palm's "Universal" Cable...which of course wasn't really universal because later they came out with the "Multi-Connector".

These cables are for Palm m500, m505, m515, m125, m130, Tungsten T/T2/T3, and Zire 71.

They will not work on the newer Tungsten T5/TX/Treo/E3/Lifedrive, or the older III/VII series, or m100/m105.

Personally I never liked the Palm version of this cable.

Thanks for the update.
There are quotations because I asked the store (that was going out of business) what they were compatible with, and that's what they told me. Initially I started that they were not compatible with the "mini connector" which based on your updated list, still appears to be true.

Im not sure why you dislike this cable, my palm loves it. It never loses connection unless it is completely disconnected from the cable whereas previously every pebble in the road would result in "connection lost"

I am selling these because I had a hell of a time finding these antiquated cables in the first place and an even more difficult time finding a replacement that wasn't chinese crap.

While I would love an updated Rtek interface, I understand fc owners are too cheap to support the costs of developing one. Until that changes I will keep an extra palm and an extra cable in reserve lol.
