HP 48SX Connectivity?

Upon launching conn3x, it pops-up a dialog with instructions on key-sequence to initiate server mode (on the 48SX, [Rt-Shift] [PRG]), then click OK, and conn3x then proceeds to open.

In the lower-right pane, it prompts "Doubleclick to try to reconnect". Doing so launches the splash screen again, you can see traffic on the machine, and the conn3x app opens with PC folder tree/folder contents in upper Left/Right, and 48SX Home folder/contents in lower Left/Right panes. This takes more than a few seconds.

One can then drag-and-drop items from the PC to the 48SX; a transfer progress dialog opens and shows packet-by-packet progress. One can also remotely delete files, etc.

Notes:

I'm using V3.0r4
The COM port must be properly set upon program entry, as I don't believe there is a 'Connect now' feature, though clicking the "Doubleclick to try to reconnect" prompt may have been the intended way to do so.
