OK... now that I have the GPS issue squared away, I have one final
Palm query - does anyone on the list have a box of dead Palms or Palm
parts. I am specifically interested in the SIMMs from Palm IIIs and
older. I have a U.S. Robotics 512K Palm w/PalmOS 2.0 in ROM, and a
1MB IBM WorkPad w/PalmOS 2.0.3 in ROM, and I would like to use them
with more modern apps that depend on the serial port, thus I need at
least a 3.0 SIMM. The ones in a Palm III are perfect - partially
because they have 2MB of RAM, and partially because they typically
have PalmOS 3.0 in FlashROM.
Palms with dead screens would make nice donors, if anyone has such
things lying around. If not, perhaps I'll find some bits at Dayton,
but people usually only bring working ones, and I really am looking
for parts to take presently working ones and make them into _useful_
ones.
The three things I most need to run are a VT100 emulator, PalmORB, and
a GPS app - all serial-dependent apps.
Please write me off-list if you happen to have a small box of dead
Palms of any variety.
Thanks,
-ethan
