How to Palm VII wireless?

How do I make a wireless TCP connection on a Palm VII?

You can't, without special software. The Palm VII transceiver uses a UDP-like proprietary protocol over the wireless link. Most of the details are undocumented and hidden from the developer.

One option is to use INetLib to GET and POST HTTP; this may be close enough for your application. See the PalmOSSDKReference? for more details on INetLib.

If you really need full IP support, BroadBeam Corporation has a product called Smart IP which provides this. In addition to the Palm-side software, you need Smart IP server software, which the Palm connects to over the wireless link. This server does the wireless-to-TCP/IP translation.
