Hi Laurent,
The message is appearing on the Newt! I'd never seen it before either.
I'm hooking up to my PC via serial port. I'm not running any other syncing
apps. I uninstalled Nokia Datasuite which uses the serial port.
I think the problem is at the Newt end of things - the obvious test, I
unhooked the newt from the serial connector, hit connect... and up popped
the same message "You can't start a connection while other communications
are in progress". Aaagh.
Anyone?
