John,

I did - but I did not realize at first that one needs to upgrade the PDA
as well as the Desktop version. So I followed the directions for the
Desktop upgrade, but when HotSync did not work and I went back to
the site to troubleshoot, I found the PDA 4.1 upgrade does not work
on OS X. Their suggestion is that I d/l the Palm OS 4.1 on another
computer, but maybe I'll just wait until they come out with an OSX
version. Just seems kind of hinky.

How did you upgrade your PDA from v.2.6 to v.4.1? Hmmm. Could I
do it by rebooting in OS 9, d/l there, and upgrading the PDA in OS9?

It seems the only difference in the software really is nice antialiasing
and a nice Aqua background, as opposed to the ugly ones in 2.6 with
jaggy type.

Many thanks.
