Harold, thanks for the response! I obtained an M500 installation disk,
but found out that I had asked the wrong question. That's because when
I clicked on the software installer on the disk, it came back and said
that it couldn't be opened because the Classic interface is no longer
supported.
So now I guess my question is this: What version of a Palm would have
the 4.0 software I need WITH AN INSTALLER THAT CAN BE RUN ON A SYSTEM
WITH OS-X 10.5.4? I've seen M500, Treo 650, Zire, Centro and Tungsten?
