Wow. That's a couple of hoops to jump through. is PD 4.0 just not compatible
with Newton or is it because it is in OSX that is causing the trouble. Did
you try hooking up via Ethernet instead of the serial adapter? If you have
the time and are up to it, I think posting the info in a step by step would
be great, for myself and others in the Newton community who are trying to
synch with PD4.0.
Great work!
