Hi Steve,

I don't have the Star Sapphire... as the Novag protocol is the same for all
their computers, I suppose that most things would work but one of the most
interesting features (in my opinion) could have problems : the capture by
CEBoard of evaluation, nodes/second and line.

There are two things that vary between the Novag computers that I have tested:
1) the communication speed : 9600 bauds for almost all of them, 57600 for the SD
2) the format of the feedback message from the computers which is even different
between Sapphire and Sapphire II.

We have a common friend who owns both a Pocket PC with a serial interface and a
Star Sapphire and I'll ask him to do the test.

Connected Novag's regards,
Alain
