-====== Palm support ====== 
-Hal Landry has done an incredible amount of work creating a native Palm application to talk to a DSMLink ECU.  We thank him greatly for this!  He has provided install notes and instructions on the DSMLink user's support forum. ​ I'm pretty sure this was done (at least originally) to limit distribution only to those with a registered copy of DSMLink. ​ We'll honor this until he tells us otherwise. ​ If you're a registered user, you can access his [[http://​www.dsmlink.com/​forums/​showthread.php?​t=1024|Latest Palm App thread]] on the support forum. 
- 
-I will at least copy this section from his notes for those considering the Palm application on your own hardware. 
- 
-===== Supported O/S Versions ===== 
- 
-  * Palm OS 3.5 and, including SOME versions of 5.0 and above. 
- 
-===== Supported PDA Models ===== 
- 
-  * M100, M105, IIIc, IIIxe, M5xx, and SOME Tungsten models (2g DSMLink only). Honestly, the best units are the old style like the IIIc and IIIxe. 
- 
-  * They can be had for cheap on Ebay or www.half.com 
- 
-  * If your PDA supports color or 360x360 resolution, the app will use those features. 
- 
-  * Non Palm brand PDA's, might work, but there are no promises. 
- 
-  * If you are using a PDA which is not listed, and it does work, let me know so that I can update the list. 
- 
-  * The IIIc/IIIxe style PDA is preferable because the sync cable connector offers a more reliable connection than the style used on the M5xx and later model units. 
- 
-===== Connection ===== 
- 
-  * You will need a serial sync cable, a null modem adapter, and a gender changer. Assemble these and plug them into the DSMLink adapter or the RS-232 cable which came with your DSMLink.
