Are you think like maybe a wifi enabled PDA? I have not looked at them in several years but there use to be several out there. Dell had one HP had several I know the HP was a pain to get setup the first time but then the user liked to play with the settings, so it may have been more user issues than PDA issues. Both would get email both used Windows Mobile one was on 3.x if I remember the other was on 4(?).
