Re: Palm III to iBook

2003-09-15 Thread Mitch Hogg
Heh. Guess I coulda looked harder.

I actually sent Mark a note this afternoon offering him a Palm III cradle
and the MacPac dongle for the low low price of absolutely nothin', so all he
really needs to do is buy something like what you linked to in your second
post and he'll be all set. He's still going to end up paying more for the
cable than for the Palm. though, as far as I can tell.

Awfully strange-looking USB connector, Tom.

Re: hard case

2003-09-15 Thread Hal
I use a sleeve from Waterfield Designs in a Port laptop case. The 
sleeves are really great and I can't say enough good things about the 
company. It's not a hard case, but it provides very good protection.

Palm III to iBook

2003-09-15 Thread Mark D. Chapman
I just purchased a refurbished Palm III. It works like new except it
came with no manuals and no cables. The manuals are not a problem but
I would like a cable so I can backup its memory to my iBook
periodically. The only cable I can find is $50 CND at Staples. There
must be a cheaper option. The device only cost $20 CND (including
taxes). It doesn't make sense to spend that much money on a cable.
Does anyone know of a cheap option for connecting a Palm III to USB
on my iBook?
Can I use the infrared receiver that comes with cordless mice and
keyboards to sync the palm III?
OT: If anyone knows of any good web resources on old Palms I would
happy to hear about those. Feel free to Email me off list about this
as it is not entirely Mac related.
Thanks, Mark
