Hmm, it depends what you mean by "like".  What if there was, for instance,
a wireless modem connected to the serial port of a Palm III-style device,
and the OS supported PQAs running over it?  Or a Qualcomm PDQ-style device,
with or without PQA support?  Or a normal old snapon wireline modem, giving
you the same functionality although tethered?  Or some future Palm
VII-style device which used cellular networks, GSM, Bluetooth, or whatever?
Which of those fit your meaning of "like"?

Perhaps you want to know if PQAs run on the device.  (Check if there's a
"clipper" application, as the docs mention.)  But that doesn't mean there's
necessarily a wireless (or wired) internet connection... could have a
snapon modem, for instance, or could just be running standalone with
reference material formatted in PQAs.

You understand the difficulty of answering your question now, I imagine :-)
Sorry to muddy the waters, but I want to make sure you understand that
things are only just beginning... so again it comes back to "what do you
really want to know?"
