Anyone out there know if a converter exists for a Handspring Visor to
allow it to fit into a Palm slot. I received a hand-me-down GoType!
keyboard from my dad because he lost his Palm Pilot, but my Handspring
Visor has a different receptacle type. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks!

The Palm and Handspring cradle connectors are completely incompatible. The
only keyboards that work with both brands are the IR link type.

No, but you can buy the excellent Targus Stowaway keyboard for the Visors
for very little money these days. Put your GoType! keyboard on ebay and buy
a Stowaway. You won't regret it.
