Can I use Globalstar data services with my Handspring PDA?
If you can find a cable or an expansion card for the Handspring which provides a standard serial port, then you will find that the Handspring works very well with Globalstar. Unfortunately, Handspring does not offer these accessories, but Springboard might have an expansion card, and there are some serial Handspring cables being advertised on the Internet. Again, the only requirement is that the serial port be a standard serial port, including all lines and hardware handshaking. NOTE: The Handspring serial cradle will NOT work because it is not a standard serial port. There are instructions on the web for modifying the serial cradle to turn it into a standard serial port, but the modification requires a bit of soldering.
