Semson Power Bank and Targus Keyboard Comments

I recently purchased these two products and i would like to leave some comments.. i dont know if i should post feedback here but here it goes :-D...

I bought a Semson Power Bank from http://www.semsons.com it has a bi-voltage of 110-240 and built in wall charger and usb to dc cable for extended the battery of your device! Supports 1200 to 2400 mah batterys 1.2v.. I have an Axim x50v and this powerbank works flawlessly, i used my pda the whole day with 1100mah battery in my axim, running videos Ice Age and Shawn of the Dead, plus few hours of gamming of all types in various enviroments.. Its best to use the battery to 20-30% than turn it off and let it charge from the Power Bank to get the most out of it..

I give it a 4 out 5
-Pro's
Bi-Voltage (USA and Europe with Plug Adapter)
USB Cable to DC gives you options to use with other deives rather than using a propiteray connector.
Plug that fold out behind the unit make the unit act as a wall charger.
-Con's
Unit is very ugly, so its good idea to keep it concealed...
Unit only comes with a 4-5inch cable which is very shorts and makes it hard to use the powerbank while ur using the pda.

I also bought a Targus IRDA Universal Keyboard, this product however had its problems, its a standard laptop keyboard like layout with built in Nav Pad for Mouse Movement..

I give it 3 out of 5

-Pro's
IRDA tax the battery far less than a bluetooth keyboard
Battery Life Longer in Keyboard
Sturdy Foldable Design
Convient Tray to hold ur pad in place with a rotating sensor to work in portrait or landscape mode.
Virtually No Lag
-Con's
Drivers out of box do not support some axim pdas and some new release pda, how ever a new driver download of v1.33 fixes this problem.
The built-in mouse does not work in some cases or works but the pointer does not show which limits its unfullness and ad uneessary bulk to the keyboard.

For 50 bucks its a good keyboard that works well after a few tweaks, compartively its a good buy since i see most keybaord go from 70-150 dollars which in my opnion is a joke..

Well thats my two cents.. Thank You :-D

I love the Semsons' Power Bank !

I also own the Semsons' Power Bank with rechargeable batteries--and I love it ! I found that the folk at Semsons were very helpful as well.
Yours,
