I am able to sync my Palm T via bluetooth, but the way I do it is not by setting
up a serial connection. Instead, I set up a PAN connection (giving my palm pilot
a local ip address and my computer another) and then do a NETWORK hotsync (vs
serial over bluetooth) using the IP address of my computer. I tell Jpilot
(pilot-link) to listen to "net:all" (or is it "net:any"....)...
I did this because I read (somewhere) that a plain serial over bluetooth
wouldn't work for some odd reason...

Yup, kpilot also is able to listen to net:any
But... I never managed to get a PAN Bluetooth Network Connection from my palm.
PAN with pand between two Linux Boxes work (one as NAP the other as PANU)
works, so I assume by Linux Bluetooth Setup is correct.
What works is a dund connection via bluetooth an ppp.
But my Zire 72 does not offer to do a 'hotsync' via this ppp connection. Only
'serial' aka 'local' or 'modem' connections are selectable from hotsync.
How did you manage to sync via IP?
