And time to try it with the Palm Pilot... won't work without an easy fix(the III and the Pilot share a different case and cradle, but the pin out is exactly the same )
Remove a small screw (underneath)

And remove the front part of the cradle:

The circuit board (2)is now available:

The Pilot will slide into and use the Palm III cradle without any problem,...hotsync done.
