Well as promised I'm reviewing the Serialio cable I just received. So far I'm not impressed and had to go back to the Cradle. It keeps dropping my connection between my pc and the Z. Not very usable at this point. I am going to mess around with it some more and see if I can figure out why. I'll keep you all posted on my progress. At this point I don't recommend this at all and do to the fact that I had to knock off the locking ears to use it with the SL-5600 I am pretty sure they won't take it back.

A little follow up.

Got it working with laptop in a dock, looks like the laptop USB port is underpowered for the Z (5vdc @ 1a). By the way the laptop I am using is a Dell C400.

i got one of these, also for use with my sl5600, and it has been working okay for me. it is overpriced, goofily engineered with the "ears" that you have to remove to use it, but i haven't had any trouble with the cable, itself, dropping connections.
