- I have the Connectivity Pack cable. Can I print from it using an adapter
cable (or gender converter) I could buy from the local PC store down the
street?

No. There are cables that let you use a parallel printer from a serial
port, but they are
relatively expensive. Perhaps a better solution is to use a desktop
compuster as an
intermediary. There is shareware available to let you do that.

- I have one of those TDK 2MB SRAM cards from Surplus Technologies. Can I
access it using the PCMCIA slot on my laptop?

You should be able to.

- Do you recommend Intellink or the new Connectivity Pack software for
moving
data between PC-based PIMs and OG?

I've only heard one review of Intellink, and it wasn't a good one.
