RE: PDA 5250 Emulation

["Carl Galgano" <cgalgano2@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Bob:
I also had trouble using the Mochasoft 5250 emulator for the Palm on my Kyo
6035.  I did however use another telnet emulator for the Palm called
pTelnet, that worked very well.  It did not support 5250, but the VT100 was
pretty tolerable.  Is set up many macros in it for commands, so it was
pretty functional.

I now have the Samsung i300 smart phone, and the Mochasoft Palm software
works PERFECTLY on it.  I wonder what the difference is?  The Samsung unit
is color, but the battery life is not as good.  But the fact I can use a
5250 emulator made buying the new phone/pda easier to swallow.  Plus, the
i300 works MUCH better at my house, which is a little bit of a dead zone for
PCS service.  BTW, the 6035 works on Sprint or Verizon, right now the i300
is a Sprint ONLY PDA/phone.  It is a cool device for you techies out there
who need to do remote support.

Note:  The Mocha TN5250 client does NOT work with the Kyocera
SmartPhone (6035).  This is a combo Palm OS pda and Cell Phone (which I
truly love!).

Mocha has TN5250 clients for PAlm OS, Windows CE, Nokia 9210 among
others.  I
use the Palm OS version to access a 400 from a Visor with a VisorPhone.

See http://www.mochasoft.dk/

That is more convienent for frequently used stuff, but the TN520
clients also
provide scrolling of the portion of the screen in view if you only need
ad hoc
access to the system for things like responding to message queues or
running
occassional programs, etc.
