I don't mean to sound rude, but you're a while out of date here. :)
We've moved on from the synce-serial stuff. synce-hal handles WM2003
devices very similarly to WM5+ devices; there's no need for all the
synce-serial crap any more, they just work when they're plugged in. With
synce-hal , HAL triggers hal-dccm to load, and it works fine with WM2003
devices.

I'm not sure of the status on password protection, though. I haven't
tried that.
