Hello everyone,

I have a problem which may be a bit tricky: I want to connect my Psion 3a organiser to my Mac to transfer word processing documents over. I don't need any PIM stuff - I have a nice newish Clie, but there just isn't anything available now that is as small with a usable keyboard for real typing. Would a newer pison (e.g. Revo or series 5) fare any better?

Any ideas?

Thanks for any comments or advice in advance,

David

OK, this question may have been too random for this forum. Do any of you know if there is a PDA/ sub-subnotebook with a decent keyboard that will sync rtf files easily to my powerbook and Panther over USB?

Thanks,

David

There are two program to transfer files and do limited conversions to Psion Series 5 and up listed on Versiontracker. I don't have any experience with either of them. Just type "Psion" in the search field.

I have both a Series 3a and a 5. The 3a hardware held up much better than the 5; I went through two screen cables on the 5. Once I got my Powerbook, I stopped using either one.
