Is it real to connect palm keyboard to PC rs232 (on ms dos)? I`m own old HP 200lx that's have a rs232 port, these handledPC work on ms dos, and i searching info about keyboard connection on rs232. HP 200lx can connect with Apple Newton keyboard + driver, but which hard to find nowadays :(

That looks like a cool device!

Can it conceivably be done? I suspect yes. Do I have any idea how to do it? Nope! It would probably also need a special driver, in addition to figuring out the wiring.

Sorry I can't help, I hope you figure something out and can keep the old hardware alive.
