Too bulky, comes loose, there are better options…
I have a Treo and my wife has a Centro.

I like the ease of use of the Palm devices and they do make good MP3 players. I use mine with headphones and in my car.

I have this particular “right angle” adapter and I don’t like it. It is very bulky and always comes loose as it swings around. This type of adapter is best if you are not moving your Treo/Centro around such as if you are jacking it into a sound dock. I would give this Palm right angle adapter one star for effectiveness but since it does have good build quality I give it two stars. Alot of third party adapters have very poor build quality.

The other Palm version on Amazon is way better, “Palm 3397WW Stereo Headphone Audio adapter”. This version doesn’t come loose, especially with headphones if you are moving around. The best adapter I’ve found so far for my Treo and Centro. A few bucks more but well worth it…I gave this one four stars (would have been five stars but price is a bit high).

Use your Treo as an MP3 player
I still love my old Treo 600 !!

It may be old but it does everything I need it to do !

With an SD card loaded Podcasts and OGG’s and MP3’s I use the PalmOne 92590PLMIN Stereo Headphone Adapter and a standard set of headphones, I can have my all in one entertainment device.

I don’t leave home with out my PalmOne 92590PLMIN Stereo Headphone Adapter, EVER !

Works For Me
It’s a simple device that converts the small stereo jack into a normal headphone one. Not much to go wrong with it. You do need to be careful to insert the connecting headphone jack into it firmly - otherwise you’ll get audio out of the left side only. Common problem - other designs have the same issue due to the nature of the connector. I could understand some of the other complaints about the stiff 90 degree connector causing damage if bumped hard. I take gentle care of my Treo 755p, so it’s not an issue for me. Frankly, I would have appreciated having either ends connected with a flexible cable to make it easier to plug in and out, and a bit more streamlined with space, but that’s more of a nit-pick.

It works
This “stereo headphone adapter” takes 3.5mm female 3-conductor (stereo, same as most headphones) to 2.5mm male 3-conductor (stereo, same diameter as the Treo 600, 700 series jacks). The Treo’s jack is actually a 4-conductor (two stereo audio out, one mono audio in (for microphone), one ground), but this adapter just ignores the mono in conductor. Altogether, this allows your Treo audio out (but not audio in) to work with standard headphones. Yeah.

As previous reviewers have said, the product works and has good sound quality, but the form factor is flawed. The adapter’s rigid design puts a lot of pressure on it and on your Treo’s jack when it’s in use. It would be better if it had a short, flexible cord between the male and female ends.

It’s OK…
It’s ok. It works. I’d recommend getting the Insten adapter instead. I use it with my Centro and it’s the best adapter I’ve found.

Customer Reviews:
Better than Oreck
I bought this item to replace an Oreck ’steam cleaner’ with which I was fed up. The Oreck costs a fortune AND it’s heavy, hard to use and very troublesome to clean . Add to that the fact that, despite it’s price, the Oreck is NOT a steam cleaner–it relies on hot tap water like every other brand.

HOWEVER, this little Bissel had it’s maiden voyage today, and I’m happy to report that it’s easy to use and lightweight, yet it picks up just as much dirty water as my old horrible Oreck.

The clean water and dirty water tanks on the Bissel are separate, unlike Oreck. SO the Bissel tanks are so much easier to remove and re-insert.

There’s virtually no assembly required (one screw). And one additional ‘plus’ is that you can use any cleaning solution you want. (Oreck’s design forces you to use their brand only.) I wanted a hypo-allergenic solution which Bissel sells.

The bottom line is that, so far as I can research, no carpet ’steamer’ sold for home use actually produces real steam. So don’t waste your money on expensive models.

This one does the job even in my household of multiple cats, dogs and sometimes muddy garden. You won’t break your arm pushing it around and you won’t make up excuses to procrastinate the carpet cleaning chore.

If it REALLY produced steam, I would give it five stars.

This thing is AMAZING–my water was BLACK
This is my first review on Amazon. I never reviewed anything in the past, but this thing is truly amazing, and I had to submit my review!!

I cleaned two 15×15 rooms, and it took me maybe 45 minutes to do. The water that came out after each time was a thick dark brown/black color, and was DISGUSTING. My floors look like new.

Small, lightweight, and amazing.

Amazingly easy-from box-to-very clean-carpeting
Ordered Sat - rec’d Tuesday July 29th - Assembles in 10 min or less -

At 69 I wasn’t into anything mechanical - Found the directions easier than a cake recipe. 3 screws - Fired up - All carpet is Cream - did Lrm paths and 2 pet accidents - then onto the worst for a real test - Cream floor area carpet in Den - NOT protected by a mat at desk. 4 Yrs wear and matted down - wheeled chair - short nap carpet - 20 minutes later this area under chair matches the original - The extractor function leaves it nearly dry - and A very pleasant scent to cleaner also.

Only one thing to watch - 1st time opening to fill solution tank /the black screw cap to the fill tank was in two pcs. so a little ‘talking to’ removed it the first time. After that, it is fine. More than met my expectations in Bissell Quality and performance.

And the Free shipping a real selling point.

Bissell 1770 Quicksteamer
I was looking for an upright spot remover so I didn’t have to crawl around my house to clean the stains on the carpet. I thought that the Bissell 1770 upright,lightweight and at a good price could do the job. Thanks to the reviews, I read the instructions carefully and had no assembling or leakeage problems; nevertheless, I repackaged the Bissell cleaner to return it tomorrow. The carpet section I worked looks cleaner, but I had to keep spraying and moving the machine back and forth (more than reasonable) in order to take the dark spot out. I bent and look at the brush, and realized that the brush doesn’t rotate and that the brush hairs are not sturdy enough for the job. After reading more reviews I will probably try another Bissell model, which has a rotating brush and still be lighweight to do the cleaning job I want.

Okay for everyday, not for set-in stains
“Cross action brushes” is completely misleading. Without reading the description thoroughly, one would think the brushes rotated to “remove imbedded dirt.” Nope, the brushes are stationary and rely solely on the operator moving the unit back and forth … so the brushes, in my opinion, are pretty much useless. This unit basically saturates the carpet with cleaning solution/water, then sucks it up.

That being said, it is a reasonable price compared to other carpet cleaners, so for everyday use — right after a stain occurs or mud is tracked in — it works fine. If you want deeper cleaning than that, spend a little more on a unit whose brushes rotate. One big plus is it isn’t too intimidating to work. Since the water reservoir is small, it’s easily fillable/dumpable, so we’ll be more likely to use it often — which is the key to keeping carpet stains at bay. It’s very lightweight and comfortably quiet. We’ll keep using this cleaner for now but will most likely buy a more industrial model in the future, especially if we ever get new carpet.

I give it a C+.
