Answering my own question:
IrSetDeviceInfo (ir_ref, (BytePtr) "\202\2\0Palm eSquirt", 15);
First byte is 0x82 which means 0x80 -- another hint byte follows & 0x02 --
this is a PDA
Second byte is 0x02 which means IR_HINT_FILE
Third byte is 0, which means ascii encoding
Rest of it is the nickname string.
Gotta love those IRDA specs ;)

for an IRDA app... What's the correct format for the XID string?
