If it were the com driver, shouldn't it affect both Christer and me, 
or could it be modem dependent?

I don't think it's this, as the 115200 works OK on the i386 machine. 
Unless the serial port on the Jornada is picky. I was wondering if 
there is a config file somewhere that sets up the tty to match the com 
port.

Now I am even more frustrated that my own doesn't work. I wish I knew 
of some way to troubleshoot this.
