Nothing I would think is strange, it does communication via the serial port,
but that is closed normally according to the documentation examples. Also,
when this error message is displayed, the screen reset button does not work,
I usually have to do a hard reset. My device is a Palm III with 2Megs
memory and running Palm OS 3.3.
