	There appears to be some problem getting the sync to start,
with USB under FreeBSD. The Palm is supposed to be the first device to
send a packet and initiate the sync, but for some reason ColdSync
isn't seeing this.
	I've asked Palm for details on the early stages of the sync,
and perhaps that will shed some light on the problem, but for now my
official position is that it doesn't work. You may want to buy a
serial cradle.

	Just so you know, here's the proper incantation:

	listen usb {
		device: /dev/ugen0;
		protocol: net;
	}
