I bought the $30 USB connect kit for the cable.  I had already
downloaded the latest version of the Macintosh Palm Desktop from Palm. 
That contains all the USB support needed.  I didn't bother using the CDs
that came with the cable.  I just plugged in the cable and off I went. 
I haven't had any problems with USB HotSync'ing with my Blue&White G3
running OS 9.1.
