David, I'm a little confused. Did you use the whole SSL engine or just the 
crypto parts. I believe just the crypto is all PGP and SSL have in common. 
I believe the crypto part is easy part (or at least readily available) and 
the SSL protocol is the hard part.

You also have to worry about an RSA license for the next year anyway and 
about RSA algorithm performance. Some RSA operations (signing and 
decryption) take 10's of seconds on a Palm.

Will, you might look at Certicom's SSL tool kit.
