Let me try to clarify.

UltraLite IS a database on the palm.  It is NOT a client that will
connect
to a database on some other device.

Having said that, it has the ability to exchange data (synchronize)
with the
major RDBMS out there including:
Sybase
Oracle
DB2
Microsoft

It does this via HotSync, Serial or TCPIP.

It does not yet support HTTP, but this is planned relatively soon.  I
believe with the Palm 7s, it does not support TCPIP over the wireless
portion.  If I am wrong on this point, can someone on this newsgroup
correct me.

You can still use TCPIP if you are in the cradle.

We are using Novatel's Minstrel devices.  This is a cradle for the
palm that
allows TCPIP communication over cell lines.  We have been using these
on
golf courses for truely wireless synchronization and real time
updates.

Does this help?

I have also posted this to our newsgroup we host.  Please ask as many
questions there as you like.  You can also get some other customer
feedback.
