Thanks for the info. It sounds like I'll be springing for this, since
we've had two ringing endorsements. :)

It would be nice to get the native Palm driver working, but I'll take
what I can get. What's interesting is the VZAccess (Verizon proprietary
solution) software installs the PDANet (another third party solution)
driver for USB in Windows, but doesn't require anything installed on the
Palm. I'm still a bit mystified.

Thanks for the suggestions.

Andrew
