If the sync doesn't work after > that, though, then Palm decided to be gratuitously different. :/ I read somewhere else that the new Palm 5xx series machines had a different sync protocol to the older models, and that the pilot-link code at least didn't yet understand it. Can't remember the date on the posting though so it could be old. You might want to try using an IR link, if you have one, to check whether the sync protocol is understood or not. I have been using the birda-0.8 package from the ports collection OK with jpilot to sync over IRDA. All that's missing for my needs at the moment is an email conduit that handles AUTH LOGIN SMTP authentication "correctly" for my DSL provider's servers to let me in :-( TTFN, John... -- John Gordon Wind River Systems, Inc.
