I am having some problems recharging my Axim X30v in its cradle. The cradle is running on AC power with the USB connection/lead disconnected from the computer.

I have two Dell supplied batteries. One is the extended life, and the other a stock slimline.

With the slimline installed in the Axim, and the extended battery plugged into the spare recharging slot on the cradle, the orange cradle light and the blue Dell light are doing a slow pulse. These lights only do this is the orange light on the axim is lit up (i.e. recharging).

Some times, I will not get a orange or green light on the axim (i.e shows no signs of recharging) at all. At these times, the cradle orange and dell blue light do not pulse.

Furthermore, if I turn Wifi on while the Axim is in the cradle recharging, the pulse gets faster.

So... is the bottom line that both my batteries are close to dieing? I am loathe to buy a new battery until I make sure the Axim and cradle are ok.

... further more to my posting.

If I plug the second battery into the spare cradle slot, the orange light on the Axim comes on.

What is most likely at fault? Axim, battery(s) or cradle?
