[Duo2400] Re: 2400 <-> Palm V?

[Fred Pentney]

I hope I am not off topic. You are not old fashioned. I use a Handspring and
a paper based planner. The PDA is great as an electronic data base and note
pad. I have the fold up key board - love it. The paper is better for me for
planning. I write up the pros and cons on my web site. www.timemanage.com I
use a PC laptop and my 2400 to get balanced perspectives. I have used ACT
2.0 on my 2400 for years. I use Outlook on my PC and sync with my PDA. Why
because ACT didn't upgrade their software for the MAC past version 2.8
(years ago). They upgrade the PC version every year and charge a whopping
price for each new version.

I don't believe there is a definitive answer to all. The key is develop a
system that works for you.

I. See if the Palm desktop software will import your data directly or
export it to an interchange format, then import it.

2. Sync with just the serial cable, you need the cradle.  I use a
cable at work and cradle at home.  I think they sold it as a travel
cable.
