I have just installed a "Comfort Plus DSP Hands-free Car kit", apart
from routing the wires it was pretty straightforward.

However our Palm 680 (UK, GSM, unlocked) doesn't seem to know that
it's in the car kit when it's in the cradle. I have it set to "auto
answer" in Wired Car Kit but it obstinately acts as if it was not
plugged in to the car kit at all.

How is it supposed to detect that it's plugged into the cradle?

Well I think I've found one problem, the loudspeaker plug needs a very
hard push to get it fully into the socket and connected, now it's
properly in at least the loudspeaker seems OK.

However we're still totally perplexed by the way the Treo 680 acts in
the cradle. Sometimes it picks calls up automatically, other times it
doesn't, apparently without us changing anything in between. Are we
missing something obvious here?
