Palm computing recently announced their Ethernet cradle. Check it out at:

Now we just need a Springboard that does the same thing. They're asking $250 for this thing though. That's damn expensive!

I've raised the question twice here, with no response. Since the Visor is a USB device, why can't you write a driver to use a USB/ethernet adapter?

You could, in fact there is a CF card out there that provides ethernet access. It also happens to be compatible to the TRGPro. Hmmm, seems TRG beat Handspring to the punch on that one.

That would be a very useful one for college students too. With wired campus's those of us without laptops (or not carrying them) would love to be able to jack in and sync. Maybe surf the web, send some E-mail, etc.
