I thought I'd add a quick extra here.

I have been able to keep a Handspring Visor alive by usign a serial cradle
long after the USB cradle seemed to have end of life driver issues with XP,
let alone W7.

But last night I used jPilot on Linux Mint with a USB cradle for the first
time.     Absolutely up to date version of the OS, and absolutely no
problem with synching and working on the desktop version.

This is running on an old laptop that I wasn't going to upgrade from Xp to
W7 or 8.
And I also have an old desktop in teh same situation in my home office.
So maybe my Handspring aint dead after all !
