The problem could instead be with the add-on software you use to get Cyrillic.

Do a "view log" and see what language your device is reporting when you do
a sync.

If it says "0", that means English, and we are just dutifully listening to
that value and presuming that the character encoding is Roman.

Look for a line like "6/27/04 2:49 PM Setting Hello Response, type is
PalmSyncTypeSlow, language is 0 (BladeLanguageEnglish)" in your Missing
Sync Log.

Also, please answer the following:
- Are you able to sync Cyrillic with this same device using a PC?
- If so, did it require modified/updated conduits, or were you able to use
a "stock" copy of Palm Desktop for Windows?

Is this all the time? Or just when using non-Roman text in the memo?
