0.1.71-5 Debian woody backport, 0.11.7-2 backport.

Actually, the treo 300 is showing up as 082d and 0100, like a plain 
Visor.  Here's what shows up in /proc/bus/usb/devices:

T:  Bus=01 Lev=01 Prnt=01 Port=00 Cnt=01 Dev#= 12 Spd=12  MxCh= 0
D:  Ver= 1.00 Cls=00(>ifc ) Sub=00 Prot=00 MxPS= 8 #Cfgs=  1
P:  Vendor=082d ProdID=0100 Rev= 1.00
C:* #Ifs= 1 Cfg#= 1 Atr=a0 MxPwr=  2mA
I:  If#= 0 Alt= 0 #EPs= 4 Cls=ff(vend.) Sub=00 Prot=00 Driver=serial
E:  Ad=01(O) Atr=02(Bulk) MxPS=   8 Ivl=0ms
E:  Ad=82(I) Atr=03(Int.) MxPS=   8 Ivl=1ms
E:  Ad=03(O) Atr=02(Bulk) MxPS=  64 Ivl=0ms
E:  Ad=84(I) Atr=02(Bulk) MxPS=  64 Ivl=0ms

There's no "Palm" or "Handspring" anywhere, so no match to anything in 
product_names.  Perhaps a more involved patch is required?  I'd be glad 
to help...

Thanks,
