I have read threads stating that the Ipaq 210 can be CHARGED and OPERATED at the same time with a USB charger that delivers 2 amps of output. The Apple USB charger apparently delivers 1 amp of output. I know I am being chicken, but I already broke my Ipaq once with the InvisibleShield screen protector and had to live without it for a week and a half while it was being repaired, so does anyone have definite experience using the Apple USB charger with the Ipaq?

How did you break your ipaq with the screen protector, if I may ask?

The InvisibleShield protector was unlike the one that I had purchased prior for my Axim X50V. For the Axim, it was a relatively hard clear plastic sheet with some adhesiveness, and it's relative hardless made it apply easier with less bubbles, and also it removed very easily.
However, for the Ipaq 210, it came as a much flimsier piece that was very adhesive. Because it was very flimsy, it was much more difficult to apply without bubbles, and additionally, it was oversized about 1 mm. It being oversized required 1 removal, after which I cut off 1 mm, and it's flimsiness required 1 removal. Honestly, removing it, even at a snail's pace, just made me scared, and ultimately, the LCD did not work afterwards.
Apparently many people have spoken about this in other threads, and when I mailed back the InvisibleShield for a refund, I told them about this, and informed them that they should remove this item from their website, as many people will be saved a significant heartache.
