I see an ad for a Palm IIIx, and supposedly they actually have them and can ship today. They list a couple of different options, and I'd appreciate a comment about, well, if I need them, or if they're fluff. There's options of a 3 pack replacement styluses, leather carrying case (I think this one's really unneeded, unless they're fragile), modem cable, AC adaptor (do they use a commonly available voltage, like one I can get at Radio Shack?) PalmIII cradle windows (this one's a complete mystery to me), and a HoySync cable for PC. I intend to use this in conjunction with my home FreeBSD PC, and I don't think I'll probably need any other comm for it. Suggestions as to what I oughta buy are needed. What's the HotSync cable, is it supported by the palm pilot software in ports? ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- Chuck Robey | Interests include any kind of voice or data chuckr@glue.umd.edu | communications topic, C programming, and Unix. 213 Lakeside Drive Apt T-1 | Greenbelt, MD 20770 | I run picnic (FreeBSD-current) (301) 220-2114 | and jaunt (Solaris7). ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
