I'm not sure about the statement: "My PDC was Palm Zire 21 which is the same processor as your Palm 31." Perhaps that used to be true, but the Zire 21 here: http://www.palmone.com/us/products/handhelds/zire21/details.epl has a 126 Mhz TI ARM and the Zire I have is fitted with 200 Mhz Xscale Intel ARM processor http://www.palmone.com/us/products/handhelds/zire31/details.epl Best, Michael
