thank you for your reply.
it DOES show "Local USB" at the communication chosen method.
it is supposed to work like you said yourself.
I press the synchronization button in the cradle and a new unknown USB
device shows up in Device manager with a yellow question mark and a code 28
(unknown device) in its properties.
the same thing happens when I try to activate the Hotsync app in the palm
program within the hand held.
I get the feeling that the USB cable from the cradle is physically
damaged....
