Palm Stuff: Can It Be Better?

1.  I wanted to know if I could improve the way my system works with my 
Palm.

2.  Today, I was able to successfully set it up with Kpilot.  It works 
so that as look as Kpilot is open, it will hotsync whenever I press the 
button.

3.  Yet, when I use pilot-xfer and jpilot, I have to time the execution 
of the syncing from the program after I press the hotsync on the Palm 
since the computer generates a /dev/pilot node for it each time it hot 
sync, but it will go away once the Palm stoppes trying.

4.  I wanted to know if there was a way to get the /dev/pilot node to 
stay, if I could somehow refer to it with something that does stay on my 
system, so that pilot-xfer and jpilot are happy without doing some kind 
complicated timing procedure each time.

Thanks for whoever help.

Very Respectfully,
Piko A. Neal, Jr.
