David,
I've got a treo 600 but it works similar to the T5 AFAIK:
 
1)Connection by USB(ttyUSB0....never mind the messages) cable goes 
faster/easier (especially the first time) with the PDA connected to a power 
source as well.
2)Do the connection with the software "button" on your touch screen NOT with 
the hardware button on the cable!!
3) First start up KPilot and let it wait for the connection (even time out) 
then.......do the "hotsync" ....on the screen!
4)sometimes it helps to edit the "conduits" and when the config widget is 
closed....kpilot will want to upgrade the changes       and .....work;)
5)For installing "rpc" files do "hotsync" twice....the first time round they 
don't install....whatch the conduits!
6) Me......I never got it to sync mail with kmail. Maybe somebody else has.
7) This can all be done with InfraRed too but that's a new bag of fish;)
