Using all the latest stuff. Stripped everything off- uninstalled palm desktop and TMS and reinstalled. Didn't work. Tried a variety of things. Could not USB sync either. Then, suddenly while trying something, I got a kernal panic and had to force shutdown. After that- everything worked fine. It was crazy- almost like the system had to purge itself of all the evil humors. Once it vomited, everything was calm.....
Strange.
