I have both the USB and serial cables. USB works under 'doze (although
hotsync crashes frequently) but I figured the serial connection under Linux
would be the easier option. Unfortunately my PCMCIA modem uses the same IRQ3
that the serial port wants so I have a problem. If you know of any
Linux-USB-Palm web links, I would be very grateful. Otherwise I shall do as
you advise and head back to Google.
