Its not likely. Some licensees may sponsor their own APIs, but writing back to flash tends to be OS-version and flash-part specific. >2) Must one license the PalmOS source to learn how to do this?

They have a development kit built around that. I think Symbol has something for their devices too. -- Ben Combee <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> CodeWarrior for Palm OS technical lead Palm OS programming help @ www.palmoswerks.com -- For information on using the Palm Developer Forums, or to unsubscribe, please see http://www.palmos.com/dev/support/forums/
