OS-wise, the i705 looks much like a Palm VII.  In particular, it supports
the InetLib for communication through its radio link.

The Push technology is handled by the OS invisibly to the device
applications.  If something is pushed to the device, it is caught by the OS
and turned over to the Exchange Manager for delivery to device-resident
applications.  The most typical usage scenario would no doubt be via MIME
type, but I **think** that creatorId is also supported (somebody on the i705
team would know for sure).

Any application that runs on a VII should run on a i705.

My guess is the latter, but that's only because of what's been reported so
far to me.  It would be good to know for sure, though.

I got an email from a user of an app of mine (which uses NetLib) over the
weekend saying that it wasn't working with the i705 wireless access.  That
symptom is consistent with what I've seen reported before with the Palm
VII series, so it seems logical that InetLib is still needed.
