Does this module support the advanced features documented on this page (http://www.aircable.net/AIRcable/CLI.html)?  The docs mention an "AIRCable Zaurus2",  but it's not clear whether that's what you have on hand.

If so,  it would be vastly more interesting than a mere "dumb cable replacement".

I wanted to thank Stephen (aka Streamline) for kindly donating of one of these AirCable devices to Cacko ROM project!  

It's nice to have people supporting Zaurus community!

Have you been able to confirm/disprove that the "CellConnect" model supports the "Command Line Interface"?

Using a C860, can you tell me how to talk to one of these adaptors? I've tried using minicom at 115200 8N1 to /dev/ttyS0 but I can't get a response from it (but the LED is flashing). Any help appreciated!

what's so special/wrong with the C3000? It is just its USB connector?

Speculatrix,

there's nothing "wrong" with the SL-C3000. You just need to keep
in mind that in all previous models we had the proprietery so known
"SHARP I/O port".

This port provided serial / usb / charging and JTAG functions depending
on the cable you use.

With the SL-C3000 this changed completely. The physical connector is
still there, but only for JTAG purpose. No USB / serial etc. any more.
SHARP did this, because now we have the new and shiny Mini-USB
connector with client / host capability. So why should they care about
our old cables ?

But this also implies that every device that used the SHARP I/O port
will not work with the SL-C3000. The AirCable is for the SHARP I/O
port, so it won't work with the 3000 model.
