Oh and another thing that sucks about Palms (that I just discovered today) unless your willing to buy an add on you can't charge certain models without the cradle, it has no port for the charger :)

It's nothing personal..but it is (against the Palm not you)

I owned an m100, loathed its ineffectiveness swore off all handhelds (it was that aggrevating) found and fell in love with the ax, :love: the end
1) For synching with Outlook the best choice is Desktop-to-Go. It synchs with Outlook beautifully. Bundle that with with Documents-to-Go and you get much better desktop support than the crappy P-Word and P-Excel.

2) A charging cable is available for all Palms, it just hooks up to the same port as the synch cable does.

3) The M100 was a piece of cr*p, at least compared to true PDA's. It was marketed as a beginner unit, similar to what the base-model Zire is now.

As for synching issues, are you trying to get multiple units to sync remotely? Other than that Palm is strictly sync-on-demand and NOBODY I know has trouble getting their Palm's to sync. Far more stable that ActiveSync if you ask me. I do like how AS stays connected full-time though. Adding apps to Palm means running a full sync routine whereas with AS it's drag-n-drop.
