Do you have any preference for the mobile operating system? Windows Mobile 5 is an obvious choice: lots of handhelds already have it, it is a well-understood product with mature development tools available, and it is a reasonably open system. On the other hand, linux ports to PDAs are common these days, and, depending on your available developer talent, may present a more economical product development path. If you are contemplating a WiFi airlink, be sure to do your due diligence on the topic of RF propagation--early reports of SIP over WiFi are sobering. If you are thinking of multi-airlinks, either WiFi && Bluetooth or WiFi && cellular, it is best to reference what the handheld manufacturers are doing in this complex area. Take a look at PCTEL's Roaming Client work for guidance. For a good summary of the issues, look at the table of contents of an industry report on mobile handset convergence: http://www.disruptive-analysis.com/sip_and_ims_handsets_toc.htm HTH, James Hanlon _______________________________________________ --Bandwidth and Colocation provided by Easynews.com -- asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
