As a serial manager newbie, I just looked up this Old and New serial manager business and found potentially confusing information: Companion Vol.2 p.94 - "The old Serial Manager API is available on all versions of Palm OS; however, it only supports RS-232 communications and low-level IrDA communications." Reference p.1383 - "NOTE: The API described in this chapter is obsolete if the New Serial Manager Feature Set is present. The API is still supported for backward compatibility; however, the Serial Manager APIs are preferred." It could be made more clear that "obsolete" really means "subject to removal without much notice" as opposed to just "isn't as cool as the new API that does the same stuff and more." -slj- -- For information on using the Palm Developer Forums, or to unsubscribe, please see http://www.palmos.com/dev/support/forums/
