[PilotMgr] USB cradles and Sun serial connectors

[Todd Freter <Todd.Freter@xxxxxxx>]

I couldn't find anything related to this question in the 2001 email log, 
hence the question. Thanks in advance for any advice. A query that I 
launched in a Sun-internal discussion group on this topic produced one 
somewhat discouraging answer, but I'm not ready to give up yet.

I just purchased a Sony Clié PEG-N610C PDA, which comes with a USB 
cradle for synchronization. What do I need to do to connect my 
PalmOS-driven PDA and its USB cradle to my Ultra 1, which has a 25-pin 
serial port? What combination of adaptors do I need to install between 
the Ultra 1 serial port and the cradle's USB connector in order to use 
the PilotManager software to synchronize the calendar, for example?

Or is what I want to do a complete impossibility? Should I return the 
Clié and exchange it for a PDA for which a serial cradle is available?

Again, thanks for any help. I have a limited amount of time before the 
option to exchange the Clié vanishes, so if you have advice or ideas, 
please don't hesitate.

-Todd.
