Well I tried running the 2300c on it's own with the Palm dongle attached 
finally (up until now I was using a modem cable with adapters) and it 
worked this time. I am not sure if it is because the dongle was attached or 
the fact that when running on the MT G3 I was able to set it to a actual 
modem port. :S

Any ways, it works for now and if worse comes to worse I'll just have to 
dock the 2300c to the MT G3 periodically to sync. :)

Thanks to the list for the "second opinions". :D
