Hi,

Is your device cradled? You cannot use the USB and serial ports
simultaneously in this case, I think. If your PPC has a "serial/USB 'Y'
cable" then, you might be able to do it. Otherwise, I'd suggest that you
connect to the PPC using either a wired or wireless connection for
debugging. Personally, I use a wireless (802.11b) card.
