I've used a KPC-3 (no plus) with APRS...no problem. I believe the
extra firmware is required for use with no PC. I don't know what type
of setup you're using, but if your palm does the APRS stuff, then it I
assume it can format a message and tell the KPC-3 to send it....no
problem.

Hello all. Me again. I'm still looking into the whole APRS thing and I have
another question. If I do go with APRS, I think I will be getting a Handspring
Visor Prism with the Magellan GPS Companion. Since the GPS will be directly
conntected to the palm, I will only need to connect the TNC to the palm. Will
the KPC-3 be ok for this? From what I've read, it will work, but I believe that
the KPC-3 is only capable of working at 1200 baud. Is this a major deal, not
being able to communicate at 9600 baud? Should I just spring for the KPC-3+?
