I bought Catapult from http://www.beiks.com/ for $99.
It is a nifty little palm software installation tool that
will present the user with an interface you are looking for.
Much cheaper to buy this than to spend time trying to write
my own installation program.
It can install files on the palm along with conduits and other
PC files. I think the demo version (free) is limited in that
it can't install conduits.
