whats this about having a gravis stinger being able to hook up to a ipaq? i read this at
http://www.mindscam.com/index.php it looks sweet and it would make it alot easier to play emulator games. so what exactly do i need for it because his post is very brief over there what is a Compaq serial cable (not USB) to connect to the Stingerand a DB9 gendor changer and how would a compaq serial cable connect to a stinger? thanx

You'll have to buy a serial cable to plug in the base of the iPAQ. Then you'll need the adaptor (DB9) so that you could plug the Stinger to the cable.

Ok, now it loaded. I think that's the one indeed. Why don't you hopp over to the Gravis site and look around? I'm sure they'll say what you'll need to hook up the iPAQ.

I read somewhere (gues it wasn't at Gravis, then) an article WITH photos of an iPAQ hooked to a Stinger. Could have been at Dale's page, but I'm not certain.
