The write up from the site says it "won't" do both...
"Dell Axim X50 X50v X51 X51v - USB Mini Cable
Forget about the bulky cradle and no more tangled cables, this retractable cable is the ultimate solution for portability and mobility. This item is less then 5" long when fully retracted, fully extended the cable is 35" long. It charges your PDA through the USB port of your computer. It is the ultimate travel companion for your PDA.
The Retractable cable is made of very durable material, in fact this cable is so strong that it can easily pull 6 kilos. This is much more than you would need with every day use of the cable. Are you interested, here are some facts:
Charge your X50 through the USB port when PDA is turned off
No additional software drivers needed
Extended the cable is 35" (90cm) long
Retraced the cable is 5" (12cm) long
Made of strong durable material
100% new, high quality
CE certified
Note:
X50 is one of the very few PDA's that will not accept low current, Axim X50 requires a high current (at least 1 to 1.5A) to power and charge if the internal battery is empty or nearly empty.
Without such high current, the PDA will not charge (if the internal battery is empty or nearly empty).
Unforunately, this USB Mini cable does not opperate at a high enough current, so it can only charge the X50 when it is turned off, in addition the sync ability of the cable is not available.
You can only charge with this cable and the PDA must be turned off."
