StarTac clip on organizer for $33, but WARNING!!

It's at shopwireless.com, but look out! Their standard checkout procedure routes you to an insecure server! Click on security issues, then use their secure server...

Idiots...still, it's a hell of a deal.

Has anyone got this organizer? How does it rate?
Dont really think you can go wrong for $33, but just
curious.

Thanx...

Check it out on epinions. Seems to be alright, but nothing really great. Seems those guys haven't been using the sync function, which SHOULD eliminate the entry time...I guess they're talking about when you aren't near your computer.

The no-calculator function kind of chaps my ass, though. How hard would that have been?

It doesn't fully function with certain Startac models. the 7760 for example... Once you get the package and open it there will be a little yellow sheet hinting at this.

With the 7760 you can't synch the phone to the organizer, or even use the store # feature of the organizer. It will still synch to the computer and make the phone dial #'s, but the whole reason I got the thing was to back up the numbers in my phone :<.. oh well..

does anyone know if this includes the Data Connectivity Kit?

The organizer sucks.

1. It's a pain to input data outside of connecting it to a computer first.
2. Does not sync well with some of the older startac phones. like sl001 said.
3. Almost doubles the thickness of the phone.

Get a real PDA. check out the palm and handspring deals.
