Hi

I have found that the Cables Unlimited #USB-2920 works well with my K3.  I 
wanted a cable specifically USB 2.0 and Vista compatible.  I have a XP 
laptop and my desktop is Vista I also have a OQO palmtop that runs Vista.

This adapter looks somewhat like a flash memory drive with a USB connector 
on one end and the 9 pin RS-232 connector on the other. I comes with a male 
to female USB extension cable and a disk with drivers for Windows 98, 2000, 
XP, Vista and Mac. Several other adapters I looked at did not indicate they 
would work with Vista.

I had no problems connecting my OQO through my WiFi network to my K3 with 
this adapter running Vista. I ordered the adapter from Buy.com for about $14 
plus shipping.


Thanks
