Spectrum In-Hand UGH!

I have been having issues with my In-Hand Palm device for weeks. I finally figured it out and it was so simple. The Hot-Sync was not connecting to the computer. I had done some checking and it was connected to the serial port in the back. I went back through the manual and found that there was a spot to check for USB, Serial, etc etc. Well for some reason it defaults to USB even though my cradle is connected by serial port. So after weeks of working with it when I had a few spare minutes I found that all that was wrong was the Serial box needed to be checked. I have heard that a lot of people have problems with this device. If you are having problems with yours that would be the first thing I would check...

Oh yeah, you would probably like to know how to do that. Open Hot Sync from inside Windows the little blue and red circular arrows should show up in the task bar on the desk top. Right click, click serial, unclick USB and you are ready to go.
