This review is from: EXP Power Sync III USB Sync Cable & Charger for Palm Pilot III Se (Electronics)

This cable has been an adventure.

1) The software drivers it came with were ancient and did not work on my Macs.
2) The guy at tech support had not-a-clue about the drivers.
3) I found the drivers myself on the Internet from the 3rd party developer who writes them.
4) I had to inform the tech support guy where to find them. So you can personally thank me if he is able to help others in the future.
5) Even with the right drivers, the thing loves to break its connection in the middle of a sync. It is not at all unusual for me to have to sync 4 times to get through a complete sync. That's BAD. Then again I have some syncs that work the first time. That's FREAKY.

Essentially, this was the only cable I ever found that worked for my purposes. But it is a flaky gadget that requires the patience of a Microsoft user, and that's BAD. So use it if you must. It will work eventually.
