First off, you will still need to make a cable.  While Pose will use one of
your PC's COM ports you still have to have it physically connected it to
another port on your PC to talk.
I routinely use the terminal program that ships with Windows to test my code
on Pose.  Just don't forget to connect a NULL modem cable from COM1 to COM2.
There are several serial examples using the serial port on the Palm
available, search the web or the Palm Knowledge base.
