Okay well after browsing the internet for data loggers, I figured out I have most the stuff for a data logger right at home! My nifty palm m100 and 2 hotsync cables. So I've seen the Datalogger wiring schem, and to be honest, im lost. What would I need to buy from radioshack to hook this up? I know some kinda of interface between my palm cable and the Diagnostic port, I know the basics of soldering, but thats where my electronic knowledge stops. Any insight could be helpful ie: Connectors needed, where to solder what...Thanks!

First off you would need the software. If you want to save yourself head ache go to pocketlogger.com and brows around.

Got the software, no problems. Pocketlogger is just an arm and a leg price wise.

Did you ever figure this out? I have my palm coming so I wanna get this going also

You will need a 3 wire seriol (SP) cable (for the diagnostic port in the car) and a cable for the palm that is a seriol cable. That or make things easy and poke around on ebay and fine a cable for your palm. You will come out about the same on price. I think I got mine that has the M500 plug on it and the diagnostic plug on the other end with my software for $35 bucks or so shipped and that saves you the headaces.

Here.. I acually found the guy on ebay for you. He builds them spacfic for your palm.

I was looking at those earlier. See my thread in the newbie section. I found a few from 6 bucks, 17 bucks and that last one you posted up. Guess I'll spend the 30 or so and get the cable. Thanks for the help.
