Re: Windows 7 / Hotsync

The few posts I was able to find on the Palm forums didn't sound hopeful.  People were complaining Palm Desktop/HotSync wouldn't install on Windows 7 and they were surprised because everything else in Windows 7 seems to work fine.  Palm's response was they they would not comment on or support software that hasn't even been released yet.

That's why I was wondering if anyone here had any success in getting Hotsync to work with Windows 7, since Windows 7 has been widely available for quite some time now in free preview mode.
