[Elecraft] Palm Contest Logging Setup?

A palm device seams like a likely candidate for a portable contest-logging,
but three
things are needed to make it a workable hardware platform.

1.   A keyboard for fast data entry.
2.   External power connecter.
3.   Connection to radio control port.

I am interested in any input on how to get all three of these at the same
time.

A GoType! Pro Keyboard for Palm m500 series devices has 1 & 2 covered. It
also
has a USB port for pas-threw hot sinking. Is there any way to use this port
to
connect to the radio while using the keyboard?

The Pocketop Keyboard connects to the Palm using the inferred port. That
would
leave the universal connecter available for the serial and chagrining
connection. Unfortunately, this keyboard does not have number keys.

Is there an inferred to serial port adapter available?
