You DO use the SDK, you just are choosing not to use the "official"
environment (CodeWarrior). By doing that, you choose to have a
slightly more difficult time getting set up (very slight) because
you don't have everything in one, neat, InstallShield package
(I've worked on that casually, but am not there yet) and creating
forms, etc is a less visual process, though there are some tools
out there (like Palm Visual Builder) that can help a lot. Once you
are comfortable with the resource description file that PilRC uses,
you may actually *prefer* the non-visual approach. I know I do now,
though I do still use PilRCUI a fair amount :-)
