As far as I can tell (and I've done limited testing) when the eDGe is off, it's off; and when it's hibernating (suspend mode) it's also off -- unlike my Palm T|X which never really turns off until the battery runs down. So I don't think there's a solution for this problem. |

Thank you! joie If you're not living on the eDGe, you're taking up too much space. |

Thanks, emusan -- found it and it works. Lots of other new toys to try out, too.
Looks like I have a lot to learn: apps spawn widgets, it seems. |

I didn't care if THAT power supply worked, only the cord and tip! Then connected the cut-off cord and tip to the good 12 volt power supply, and I get a nice long cord on an "eDGe power supply". Obviously this takes a solder station, solder, shrink tubing and a volt meter to ensure you're not joining the cables backwards. Sorry if you thought "cobble together" meant I had a part # for a new one. Others have part numbers they've purchased, but those invariably involve those multi-connect tips, so that one power supply can "fit all products" using a slider or selector for the voltage. Those tend to come loose, and the supplies cost from $15 to $29 and tend to be quite large because they have transformers -- they're not "switching" power supplies. My solution cost me about $1 each, and I found several that were easy to carry because they were designed to provide one voltage and are switching. It seems the trick to finding the exact one-voltage supply for an eDGe is that the connector is VERY small for 12 volts at 1 amp. Entourage no doubt used that connector because they didn't need that much current, and the body of the receptacle inside the unit is much larger than what you see outside and using a larger receptacle was a space issue. |
