Off topic a bit, many apologies

Has anyone gotten the Brando serial cable to work on an n760? By that I mean a real n760 not an upgraded n710 (though I am not sure if that makes a difference). I am asking because, obviously, I have an n760 and the cable does not work. Brando has been very helpful but he does not know for sure if the cable works on n760s. Any input is much appreciated. Thanks!

WORKS GREAT!

Connected to my Qualcomm 860, I hot-sync with my home PC to send a receive mail through Outlook; Surf favorite sites using Blazer; update Avantgo's CNN news in less than a min from connect to hangup, and run a bunch of web clippings. All done with the above phone and a Clie710.

You will have to get your phone cable from the manufacturer, but once connected, it's all good.

Good Clié Cable Source

Got my Clié - to - cell phone cable from thesupplynet.com. Works great with the Clié and LG TM-510 phone. Nice and compact, good quality and fit, easy to follow instructions.
