I avoid the USB problems by getting serial cradles for each of my devices. I run the latest Palm Desktop Software. I also bought a 4-way manual serial switch from Belkin. I plug all the different cradles into the switch box and then plug that into my computer's serial port so I can HotSync with any cradle without having to pull out cables. Another advantage of using serial cables is that I can use the pilot-xfer program to manually install and retrieve databases and programs without performing a full HotSync.
