You can transfer to Palm via IrDA but AFAIK the 1400 doesn't support it. I just set it up (you have to install a few files on the Palm, at least on my Palm) and it works fairly well. It's kind of weird having to get to the HotSync app in Palm, starting the hot sync process and then turning the Palm around and putting it behind the laptop. -- Clark Martin Redwood City, CA, USA Macintosh / Internet Consulting [EMAIL PROTECTED] "I'm a designated driver on the Information Super Highway" -- PowerBooks is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
