RE: 5250 on Blackberry

One of my customers demo'ed a version that I found listed in one of the
recent (a few months ago), i-Series magazine.  It worked pretty nicely
considering it was such a small screen.  Not all F keys were readily
available - they had to use alternate keys to bring up a small menu to get
the keys to work.  It was agreed that it would be good for IT staff to have
for emergency use only - not everyday work processing.

The price was pretty good (not that high) especially since it would only be
used for non-everyday use.  If I can find the article I will post it but you
may want to search on your own since my time is pretty tight.

Anyone try using any kind of 5250 emulation on a Blackberry?

I understand they will run Java apps. Anyone know of a Java-based 5250
emulator?
