How new are the Cliés involved? I have a T675 which wouldn't work; this was no surprise as the model is brand new and the kernel modules could not possibly have caught up with any peculiarities it happened to have. However, I bought a Hama memory stick reader, attached it to a USB port, and it works like a charm; I don't bother even attaching the Clié to the PC now. (I never hotsynced my old Clié, a T425, in any case, always reading and writing directly to the Memory Stick). Alastair
