With a USB cable and BitPim I can transfer my Palm or Outlook Address Book
to my LG VX6000 right? Address book transfers go both ways? I see a lot of
talk about backing up the phone address book, but not that much about going
the opposite direction loading a PC's address book onto the phone.
One more question... I was hoping to coax out some trustworthy information
on charging vs. non-charging cables.. I'm seeing some conflicting info and
was looking for some cable purchasing advice.

this guy's auction for his non-charging OEM USB cable claims the charging
ones are not a good thing for the health of your phone.

get a little snippy back and forth about the danger of a charging cable.
In this thread, http://www.howardforums.com/archive/topic/248952-1.html we
have Robert Valentine, the owner of RPI Wireless, writing on behalf of his
product. To see the owner posting to newsgroups makes me more than just a
little concerned about his product.
Are all these cables just reverse engineered versions of this one?

That earlier eBay ad warns that "some other sellers out there are selling
illegal aftermarket charging cables or cables with an obvious "box" on them
claiming to be similar to this or OEM."
Is this guy referring to the packaging (being non OEM?) or the square brick
in the middle of the cable. Do they all have that brick in the cable? Seems
like the brick would only be necessary for the charging cables.
Thanks for any wisdom you can share,
