Some were some weren't. We used to stock ones that had it in the visor end. The 
current ones we stock have the electronics in the DB9 end.

I don't have a clue what you are talking about.  You cut off the visor end and 
put the Athena connector on wired properly to the TTL level RS232 signal. Done.

Ehh, but they all eventually plug into a standard PC type USB port, so as I 
stated before, I wish there was something more universal. i.e. something that 
had a PC type USB port and a DB9 on it. Every Palm that handles USB has a cable 
that goes from whatever connector is on the Palm to a standard USB connector 
readily available. So there are no cabling issues as far as getting the signals 
to whatever is going to convert the USB signals to serial.

Now how about getting back on the topic of *solutions*...
