Thank you Marco. You got me excited for a while. I re-booted in OS 9
with the minimum extensions and tried to sync my Newton, but, alas, I
got the same error message. :( I'm beginning to think it will not
work.

BTW, I don't have a Palm (who needs a Palm when one has a Newton?) so
I can't disconnect it. :)
