Thanks for that Brian - and understood that the security limitations are 
the ancient support PalmOS has for network/modem sync-ing.

Personally, if it's not my 
secured-home-WiFi-network-where-I'm-the-only-user, I use the built-in 
Mergic VPN client to bring a VPN connection up first and then run the 
network hotsync over that. Doing a full sync over Bluetooth is just 
painful. :)
