I'd like to ask a question about the palm pilot, I'm finally able to
convince myself that it would help my low level of organization.

I see an ad for a Palm IIIx, and supposedly they actually have them and
can ship today.  They list a couple of different options, and I'd
appreciate a comment about, well, if I need them, or if they're fluff.

There's options of a 3 pack replacement styluses, leather carrying case
(I think this one's really unneeded, unless they're fragile), modem
cable, AC adaptor (do they use a commonly available voltage, like one I
can get at Radio Shack?) PalmIII cradle windows (this one's a complete
mystery to me), and a HoySync cable for PC.  I intend to use this in
conjunction with my home FreeBSD PC, and I don't think I'll probably
need any other comm for it.

Suggestions as to what I oughta buy are needed.  What's the HotSync
cable, is it supported by the palm pilot software in ports?
