yes I upgraded to version 4.1.
yes it did have the USB option to choose.
no I could not establish a connection for synchronization.
my last option before buying a new cradle is to uninstall and remove all
mentions of palm and hotsync from the registry, then log out and login as
administrator and do a complete installation from 0.
as I said if this does not help me now - I am going to a computer shop to
buy a palm-to-USB synchronization cable. (I heard there are some
possibilities there...)
