-If your palm is not working you could try to change the symlink 
-created in 60-pilot.rules - change the tag KERNEL=="ttyUSB[13579]" to
-KERNEL=="ttyUSB[02468]".
+When you connect your Palm handheld, watch /var/log/messages - the visor
+module should create two ttyUSB devices. Depending on your handheld
+model you will need to use either the first or second of these as the
+--port argument with pilot-link based programs.
+
+Some users like the convenience of linking this device to /dev/pilot.
+To do this add SYMLINK="pilot" and one of either KERNEL=="ttyUSB[02468]"
+or KERNEL=="ttyUSB[13579]" to each line in 60-libpisock.rules, depending
+on whether you need to use the first or second visor ttyUSB device.
+N.B. This is inherently unreliable since another driver could create an
+odd number of ttyUSB devices before the /dev/pilot symlink is created.
