Palm Zire 31 (USB) as serial terminal via USB-serial?

[Douglas Tutty <dtutty@porchlight.ca>]

I've heard reference to being able, in a pinch, to use a palm pilot as a
serial terminal.  Of course, those palm's predated USB (and presumably
USB serial port dongles).

I'm wondering if anyone has heard of being ale to do this on a Palm Zire
31 which has a USB port not a serial port.  It would make sense to me
that its possible since you can use a USB serial port with the console=
kernel parameter.

Also, is there a non-commercial Palm OS community?  Something like
debian-for-Palm would be great.  Any links welcome.

Thanks,

Doug.
