Well coat me with honey and tie me to an ant hill!  I guess it doesn't
work!  I rely so little on hotsync anymore that I guess I just hadn't
done it, although I would have sworn that's the way I got Handyshopper
on to the 755p.  I guess maybe I did that before the Vista laptop
arrived.  

So, the only way to install is to email a PRC to oneself or perhaps to
copy it to the card and then move into RAM?  How sloppy of Palm to leave
us in this position.  Vista's been out for awhile.  One can hardly buy a
computer without it, and there's no way for mere mortals to install any
Palm stuff on a brand new computer??  Very sloppy.

Speaking of sloppy, I guess my understanding of what Quick Install is
was pretty sloppy.  I always assumed it was a different best from
"regular" install since it has a separate icon.  

Guess not.

Cheers,
Don

Don,

QuickInstall won't even run for me in Vista.  I'm not sure how you are
getting it to run...
