I recently tried this product on my Palm 3c and the results that I had with them was exactly the same as the other Write Right's for the Palm 3 (Non-Color Version.) In a word, Excellent. The the amount of time that they say the pack lasts is wrong. It lasts much longer. Even with high usage, they continue to preform just like the first day I put them on. I have had my first screen protector on for two months now, and I still haven't needed to change the protector. Even though it does reduce the sharpness of the image, it doesn't reduce enough to make it a problem. My thoughts are get them as soon as you can, ... And Amazon.com offers a discount that I haven't found anywere else. My overall thought is go ahead and by this great product.

As my Palm usage has increased significantly of late (due to my adoption of Words To Go and my Palm fold-up keyboard), I found that my energy consumption went up likewise -- and that I needed to recharge more frequently -- especially when I have many meetings at work, take business trips and write memos on the plane, or when I take my kids to sports practice and use my Palm while I wait -- which can all lead to extended periods away from my PC sync cradle and its recharger.

I was therefore happy to find the Fellowes Mobile Charger which has power cords for both the car -- and the plane -- which allow me to juice up my Palm whenever I travel by either mode.
I can now recharge (or have extra power for) my Palm when I need it -- and, more importantly, when I'll remember to use it -- on my way home after meetings (especially after those in which I use my fold-up keyboard -- and Documents To Go -- to type notes directly into my Palm); or after my kids sports practice where I'll compose or revise memos as they practice their athletic drills; or when I'm on the plane in the evening and working while I'm flying to my next destination. I now no longer have to remember to charge my Palm when I get home or to bring a recharger with me on the road and to use it in my hotel room after I arrive, both of which I always forget to do. With the Fellowes Mobile Charger, my Palm is always fully charged and ready for use.

Although I've used the cords domestically, I haven't yet used the mobile charger on an international trip, but I'm guessing that the cigarette lighters in cars and the accessory power plugs in planes are fairly standard worldwide -- much more so than the wall outlets which I know to be different in foreign countries, so taking the Fellowes Mobile Charger on the road overseas may be more convenient than taking the traditional Palm (wall outlet) charger kit and attempting to use its various international adapters.

My only dissatisfaction with the Fellowes Mobile Charger is that it can't plug directly into the Palm keyboard -- to enable me to charge and type at the same time. For those occasions when I need to do both, I'll revert back to inputting via Graffiti or the tap screen keyboard which are still both usable when the power cord is attached. Using the Palm with the mobile charger plugged-in is actually quite convenient since the cord is flexible and the connection at the base of the PDA is very small. (As a comparison, using a Palm while it is nested in its sync cradle -- due to the Palm's upright angle and the fairly immovable nature of the cradle's base -- is much more cumbersome.)

If you're like me and you'd like to charge your Palm when its most convenient -- when you're traveling by either car or plane (and not at home or in your hotel room when other items are on your mind) -- the Fellowes Mobile Charger can be very handy indeed. I now take it with me whenever I drive or fly. But normally, I just leave it (in a storage space underneath the dash) in my car where I use it most!

It's small and convinent. You don't have to carry 2 packet at the same time

Absolutely the best way to keep your Palm safe, secure, and handy for business. Just the right mix of electronic and paper organizing.

Great way to keep your Palm safe, secure, and handy for business.

In my opinion, the Hakuba KLV-M70 is one of the better cold cathode fluorescent flat panel lights available. While its specified luminance of 1,400 candela per square meter is shared by similar flat panel lights from other makers, in use the M70 appears whiter and brighter than many others. Transparencies are very enjoyable to look at, due to the 5000 K. color temperature of the light.

I use the M70 as a light source for a special View-Master stereo viewer, and it performs very well in this capacity. Details of how it was attached are on my 3-dviews website, under Technical.

When used at home, it makes sense to use a power supply rather than the AAA batteries (which last a bit more than 2 hours per set of 4). Hakuba sells a dedicated power supply (in Japan, at least), but a Sony AC-E60A AC power adapter works perfectly, and functions at any household voltage. Any 6 volt DC power source of 500 mA or more with the right plug (center positive polarity) should power the M70 satisfactorily.

I am a naturlist from Florida and I have seen alot of aligator skin and this looked so real that I was about to complain. When I found out it was fake skin I imediatly bougut one. Buy this case now.

A very nice addition to your Visor Edge. Soft leather protects your visor and other objects from getting scratched up. I used to keep my visor in my pocket with my sunglasses. I've ruined several pairs of glass, but no more!

Also doubles as credit card holder (room for three), and you can tuck some business cards in there as well.

The visor simply snaps in place, and doesn't come loose until you want it to.

Downside? You can't use this case if you have any modules attached to your visor

I was expecting a very "orange" looking cover, but it was a tiny bit more reddish than the picture. I originally ordered the lime green cover but returned it because it was too gold.

The cover works great (make sure it is snapped in all the way, even when open), and I find myself using the stylus in the case more often than my more traditional pen-shaped stylus. These hard cases are a huge upgrade from the ... leather case which comes with the 520. It slides easily in and out of my pocket, and takes up less room. It also provides shade when I am looking at it outdoors, which is nice.

If you think you might want one of these, you do. Be weary about the colors on your computer screen being very close, but not exact (I am an artist - very picky about these things), but I really recommend it.

Extremely useful for the road. Required for some of the new keyboard accessories which don't include them.
