OK. Turns out I was finally able to reproduce my problem on the Emulator and fix it there. I had been convinced it was i705-specific, but it was, instead specific to the particular apps I had installed on my i705. Installing the same apps to the Emulator gave me the same problem there. Anyone want to buy a barely-used sync cable? :-) Thanks again for all your help, Paul -- For information on using the Palm Developer Forums, or to unsubscribe, please see http://www.palmos.com/dev/support/forums/
