Not a problem...

How did you make the cable, reliably?  Other than modifying
the "plug in" module itself (I want to keep the Palm connector
usable, in case I get a Palm) I don't see a simple way to do it.

Below is a snippet from my logfile.

53.187: UART: Transmitted data:
53.187:  D5                                                =D5
53.187: CommWrite: Transmitted data:
53.187:  D5                                                =D5
53.187: EmTransportSerial::Write: writing 1 bytes.
53.187:  D5                                                =D5
53.407: UART: Transmitted data:
53.407:  D5                                                =D5
53.407: CommWrite: Transmitted data:
53.407:  D5                                                =D5
53.407: EmTransportSerial::Write: writing 1 bytes.
53.407:  D5                                                =D5

It's pretty clear how it moves through the system, and finally out
of the serial port, at least in theory.
