Palm's on the road

[Fritz]

No, not some plea for amputation, but a plea for advice.
I have a T3 (and keyboard) that I want to use as a diary (etc etc etc).
I'll use back-up SD cards, but really I want to get the info from Palm to email / web.
I haven't (and don't want) a mobile.
I know a bit about computers and software but am far from expert / nerd.
I have been trying (on Brighthand) to seek a way of accessing the palm from an internet cafe - obviously I can't synch as they won't have the software or allow installation.
I've read of two possible options - both using the SD card - one for the PC to read SD card in Palm as a 'mass storage device', the other as a 'card reader'.
See http://www.palminfocenter.com/view_story.asp?ID=5478 for card reader, and http://www.synclive.com/cardexport2/ for the software for 'mass storage device'

The question is does anyone have a practical experience of these - or another bone fide method of getting text off the palm and onto an internet PC ??(without mobile).
I'm concerned the above may only work if software installed on PC - ie back to square one. I want a solution so palm will connect to USB in ANY PC and be picked up (card at least) as accessable 'mass storage device'(like a Scan Disk pen drive) using software or whatever on device not PC.
Tried a search here - if the answers already here please point me to it.
It must be possible - but how ?
I'm sticking with the T3, but I will be taking pen and paper just in case :-0
Cheers in advance, Fritz
