I have two cradles one USB and one SERIAL from my original XDA.
I have posted them on ebay 2x and no bids at all...nothing. OK they are
not going to sell.
I want a cradle for work. After reading confirmation that the connectors
are the same...Hmm...my Imate fits but it is snug inside due to a plastic
piece...can't have my baby scratched. So I take apart the USB one very
carefully. File down the plastic inside piece and put it back
together...NO PROBLEMS. The Imate drops right in. YEA I have a USB cradle.
WOW.
I got to test it out...plug it into the usb port, drop the imate in and it
starts to sync...YEA.
Here is the interesting part. NO AC Adapter connected and the thing is
charging. Umm charging. This is the original XDA cradle. My old XDA
never use to charge without AC plugged in. This might be a clue to the
sync/charge cables...looks like the connection is in the imate itself not in the new XDA II cradle.
