RE: TN5250 emulator Se910a

["Carl Galgano" <cgalgano2@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

James, thanks for the very generous offer.  I think the phone is the Moto
A780.  It looks very cool, but even though it runs on a Linux core (kernel),
it appears the Linux part of the phone is locked, and it can only run Java
J2ME apps.  I did a quick google search and could find very little software.
SO I have decided to pass.

There is lots of software for the PPC and Palm OS platforms, and a decent
amount for Symbian UIQ, but I can not find a 5250 emulator for the Symbian
UIQ IS.  Mocha has a Telnet (non 5250) version for the SE P800, and a guy on
one of the forums at www.howardforums.com tried it on the P910 and said it
works fine, but it is not 5250.  I know I CAN use a Vt220 emulator, but
prefer not to if a 5250 version exists somewhere.  Mochasoft emailed me to
say the market is too small.

If the phone runs linux, tn5250 should work on it.  I don't have such a 
phone, but if you can point me to a compiler for it, I'll do whatever 
I can to make sure that tn5250 will build on it.

It's not the software that's free; it's you.
