Don't think you can use your Psion 5 as an IR adapter to direct to the PC, although I did find software to sync with my old Nokia 8210 (Urgh!). Hope this helps...

Hi,

Dunno if you have already got your IR adaptor by now, but hope this helps anyway:

I just bought my serial-IR adapter form www.expansys.com for £25 (ex VAT). Works great.

It's mean to be tiny!
You connect it to the IRDA socket on your motherboard and mount it somewhere internally that has an opening
I suggest you put 2 holes in one of your 5.25inch covers and put it there
