Newer palm devices have exactly this behavior. They also appear to the system 
even if there is no hotsync active. Older models only appeared while pressing 
the button on the cradle. Newer devices exactly disappear and appear again 
with different endpoints which are used for syncing. I am not this familiar 
with the usb subsystem, but i guess if a process like pilot-xfer claim 
the /dev/ttyUSB1 device node, it is not going to disappear and the new 
endpoints will appear then as /dev/ttyUSB{2,3}.

Which version of pilot-link do you have? The pilot-link version 0.12.x 
supports syncing via libusb which should fixed this ("LiveDrive") issue.
For the socket address just use "usb:" instead of the serial USB device node:

pilot-xfer -p usb: -l

If this doesn't help, you should report this issue to the pilot-link-general 
mailing list.

best regards,
Daniel
