I found a program called LinkUSB that supposedly lets you put yoru Visor in your Cradle and have Net Access. Anyone try this yet?

Heyday

I've looked into it, but, unfortunately, it relies on haveing a PPP server at the other end of the USB. Currently, you can do that in Linux, but non one has written any PPP server software that uses USB for Windows as of yet. Mochasoft will probably be the ones to do it if anyone does.

If you find a better solutiopn, PLEASE let me KNOW!

Cool

I once tried it under linux. The linux USB driver is not quite stable to work with it (no problem with pilot-link, though). The battary was drained very fast and my Visor died badly after about 15 minutes of usage.(I was using NiMh rechargeable, and at that time the remaining power should have been able to support several hours usage).
