I had exactly the same pb and HP France gave the contact of a society 
based in Paris metropolitan area. It was expensive (55 euros) and i 
waited about 3 weeks to get my serial cable. But i'm glad i could get it 
otherwise my jornada 720 would have been unusefull.
Here is the name and address :

IPS Informatique
36, rue de Verdun
94500 Champigny sur Marne
(+ 00**) 01 47 06 65 96
fax : 01 47 06 40 49

I don't know if they speak english but the lady was fair.
Here is some more information : The device serial cable for jornada 720 
(one that directly plug into the jornada) is identified as :

F1224-80004 
cable série
