i bought one on e-bay that is a sync/charger cable and the charger part of it doeesn't even charge the battery. all it does is drain it. now i'm having problems with the sync part of it. so i'm giving up. it seems like the axim is really sensitive to non dell parts. anyone know how much and where i can get a cheap dell sync cable for?

I bought a USB Charge/Sync cable off eBay for AU$15.50 delivered. It works like a dream, and now I don't have to take the cradle and power cable everywhere. Be careful not to leave it plugged into a laptop that is on battery. It will suck the life out of it twice as faster as normal.

thats funny, does yours charge your battery at all? how about from 0%??

mine just sucks battery. it doesn't charge.

i also got a car charger from same guy and it does the same thing. only sucks, no refilling.

I bought mine from this guy Proving_Grounds on this site. He's also on ebay, but he sold me a sync cable. Shipping isn't the fastest -- but I lack patience and it's really only been a couple of days because the weekend hit.
I would highly recommend him. He is on ebay as well. Now the sync cables don't charge no matter what anyone says, but I just got a Dell Power cord for the Ax (it's the one for the Ax) for $15.00 on ebay. I was pleased.
Contact Proving_Grounds, he's an Ax site member.

Also check out Seidio. I know someone who got their cable from there and likes it. I got mine direct from dell in the Belkin 3-in-1 travel kit.

The only thing I hate about Dell is the shipping is $8.00.
That's a bit high for a cord.
