-> I know that can be done with IntelliLink and Palm Connect, but is there
-> any other way to transfer files?

A PCMCIA card drive will probably work since the Zoomer apparently uses
standard MS-DOS file system on PCMCIA cards.  See
ftp://csd4.csd.uwm.edu/pub/Portables/pcmcia.devices for a list of
makers of card drives and other PCMCIA devices.

It might be possible to run standard MS-DOS communications software
that can be configured to not use a keyboard such as MS-Kermit, Zip
(not PKZip), and others.

-> 	What type of Type II PCMCIA cards do I need to purchase for my
-> 	Zoomer?
-> 
-> There are 12V and 5V, correct?  Which type does the Zoomer use?

Those are two of several types of flash memory cards.  I think the
Zoomer can use either.  There are also SRAM cards, modem cards, and
others.  See the recent file I sent to the list on this topic.
