DESCRIPTION

The driver provides support for USB based PalmOS PDAs, like Handspring Visor, Palm Mxxx series, and Sony Clie.

The device is accessed through the ucom(4) driver which makes it behave like a tty(4). The device has several ports for different purposes, each of them gets its own ucom(4) device. The attach message describes the purpose of each port.

The usual Pilot tools can be used to access the attached device on the HotSync port.

HARDWARE

The driver supports the following devices:

HISTORY

The driver was adopted from Nx 1.5 in August 2002. This manual page was adopted from Nx by An Tom Rhodes Aq trhodes@FreeBSD.org at that time.

BUGS

The code to provide multiple ucom(4) instances has not yet been ported from Nx . It is unclear whether this driver works in its current state.
