I understand that a USB charging cable is not going to provide the high power provided by the dell charger, but I was wondering if there is a quality difference between different USB charging cables.

Belkin makes one that is around $20. On ebay, you can easily find them for $4 or $5. Is there a difference?

I am less worried about the quality of the charger and more worried about negative effects on my Axim. I don't want to cheap out on a charger and end up paying in the end by ruining my Axim's battery, etc. I've heard in the past that aftermarket chargers for cell phones decrease the life of your battery.

Is there any chance that these cheap charges could have negative effects on my Axim / battery?
