The ones that work have a 12 digit serial number. The ones that do not work
do not have it.
Also included in the list of the ones that will not are all of the
Handspring devices (I may be incorrect, one of the new ones may have it).
Unless you have a compelling reason to require that unique serial number,
you should use the Palm User Name instead to identify it. Its not unique, of
course, but in my time developing software for Palm (about 4 years now), I
have not yet encountered any duplication that wasn't done on purpose.

Subject: 12-digit serial number (ROM)
According to Palm OS . Programmer's Companion Volume I:
"Some Palm T devices, beginning with the Palm III product, hold a 12-digit
serial number that identifies the device uniquely. (Earlier devices do not
have this identifier.)"
I have tested to retrieve this serial number sucessfull with models m505, Vx
and Symbol SPT 1740. But I have tested on Palm m100, palm III and Palm IIIe
and I did not work.
Can someone help me?
