I have a Palm M105 handheld which I currently hotsync via the serial port on my PC.

I'm upgrading the motherboard and other items on my PC and am finding that a lot of top motherboards do not have a serial port.

One of my options is to upgrade my Palm to a version that hotsyncs via USB so that I won't need a serial port.

Ideally I am looking for a new Palm which is not only able to run my existing software but also has additional memory and features e.g. SD card storage, bluetooth etc.

A possible alternative is a handheld from a different company, which uses the Palm OS and is compatible with my existing software.

Either machine would probably have to hotsync via USB.

Can anyone recommend a suitable handheld please?

Any information would be greatly appreciated. TIA.
