FreeBSD and Sony Clie

[Victor Gregorio]

I have been meaning to post my solution for a while now. Brent from the
freebsd-questions at freebsd.org mailing list helped me with the birda
command. 

The command that worked for me is: 

/usr/local/bin/irs -d /dev/cuaa1 -y /dev/ptypv -c -e 

I can then connect via serial device /dev/ttypv at a rate of 115200.

Thanks Brent.
