Some questions about the Belkin SnapNType
1.) Can you charge while using it (does it have a charging port on the bottom to replace the one it takes up)?

2.) Can you use it with an extended battery (if so which sizes)?

3.) Does it cover any part of the screen?

4.) How is it over all?

Thanks,
AximLegionnaire

1. Yes. You remove the adapter that normally clicks into the axim and just use the remaining cable.
2. Don't know - There is a cut out on the back that may allow for an extended battery but I do not have one to test.
3. No
4. Works very well for quick entry but does add considerable size to the device (no keeping it hooked to the Axim in your pocket). Would not recommend for extensive typing. Keys feel very responsive. Navigation features are nice. When used with Fake Cursor no need for stylus.

5. Doesn't work with the RhinoSkin cases.

That should be obvious to anyone who has seen both, but Dell sees fit to bundle them together occasionally at discounted price.

I could not insert the Axim in my Sena case into the keyboard. It had to come out of the case.

Glad to here I can charge while using it. What you said will actually work very well for me because I lost the regular adapter. Buying this keyboard will kill two birds with one stone: I have the keyboard and a way to charge without having to use the cradle. So does anyone know if it works with the extended batteries?

Yes, it works fine with the Dell extended battery. I can't imagine why it wouldn't work with others; there's a cutout on the backside of the keyboard that provides clearance for the battery hatch. Unless you've got some bizarre extended battery that extends below the bottom of the battery compartment, you should have no problem.
