I just got an HP 200LX palmtop (came half a week early...)
I don't have a serial cable for it; it takes a special 10 pin plug at one end; standard RS232 at the other.
I have the pinout, and I read a suggestion of cutting up a 2.5 to 3.5 HD cable to make it.
Has anyone any experience with building a serial cable for the 200LX?
Anyone know a good source for parts for the project, now that Radio Shack is no more? (I thought about trying Element 14 online...)
Does anyone know what the 10 pin connector is called, if anything?
Could I maybe make the adapter from a 9 pin serial to motherboard cable?
Any info anyone can share I'd greatly appreciate. Thanks.
