Palms of sufficient age are often found in surplus shops--I know that XSCargo locally was selling Palm IIIx and IIIxe for about thirty bucks each. (That's where I got mine.)

I may need to go for a slightly more modern one just to get a USB-enabled one, but even those are pretty cheap on eBay now.

Either that, or buy a TX for me, and give her my IIIxe and its serial/USB cable...

Heh. Isn't that how tech buying works? You buy the spiffy new thing you're dying for, and you pass on your still-working old one to a relative who doesn't have one yet.

That's right. My brother gives me his cast-off technology. Good thing I really like black and grey and silver :-)
