I had the same problem, only I owned the Palm lll and purchased a new Ibook. I liked the Palm lll and did not want to get another pda at this time. You will need a USB to serial adapter and the serial cable (either the small travel one, or the dock station). I tried a low cost adapter from Sewell corp (sewell.com), but they are primarily for PCs, and after 5 days of trying, I could not get the Palm to hot synch. I found the Keyspan hi-speed adapter online for $35 (search Keyspan High speed serial usb adapter at Froogle.com), purchased from Wholesalers-Direct.com. This worked flawlessly the first time in both 9.2.2 and 10.2.6. Keyspan also makes a usb PDA adapter, I think the only difference is the transfer speed, the PDA is slower and may also be cheaper.
As far as I know the Ibook does not have IR ports, so unless you get an external adapter for this, you will have to go with the usb/serial adapter. Hope this helps.
