That's a cool way of doing it. I would guess, sense these are going to be
laptops, I could do something similar by just storing the graphics on the
hard drive and then storing something in a cookie that maps to them? My plan
is to stay away from graphics in general sense these are mainly function
oriented apps.

Yeah, stay away from WAP. What a bogus thing that is. We're doing wireless
gaming and have standardised on Palm.net architecture. Basically you have an
HTML browser but you download all the graphics to the palm at the very
beginning using a Hotsync. After this all you do is send the palm an html
page referencing the graphics that are already loaded on the palm. The
upshot of this is that you can deliver nice rich looking pages with pretty
sophisticated functionality just by sending a "web clipping" that contains
text and links to graphics already on the palm. Our pages are about 2k each
which really isn't bad. In addition, any static pages like rules, privacy
can also be downloaded just once and then stored using a hotsync along with
the graphics.
Because you're using HTML you don't have to really tweak your servers or
configs like you would with wap, and you can repurpose all your current
content.

Any of you guys have any recommendations for building cf apps for wireless
clients (connecting between 14 and 16 kbps)?
Thanks,
Rick
