Re: Palm PDA <--> as/400

["John Earl" <johnearl@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

At the Interaction 2001 (COMMON Australia essentially) conference,
there was a session by Troy Bleeker (IBM Rochester) on using PDA's
with iSeries.  Troy demonstrated with a IBM Work Pad (it's essentially
a Palm) and showed a couple of ways to use Palm OS's with OS/400.

If you want I can fax you the handout - or if you're going to COMMON
in Minneapolis it looks like he's presenting there as well -

A good launch point on the IBM website is www.ibm.com/pvc

Hope this helps...
