Most cellphones with IR do indeed support OBEX - it all depends on the phone to be honest... my T39 sure does - I can send it appointments, address book and to do records from my Palm direct to my phone.
Alexandre, the code in the Datebook sample that uses ExchangeMgr will work just as well for phones as other Palm devices. The Exchange Mgr will use IR unless you tell it to use something else (like Bluetooth). ... Actually I've just re-read your original question - you want to transfer records from one Palm to another Palm via a cellphone link...! This will require use of NetLib, not the ExchangeMgr. Using a Palm as a server can be done - but from many aspects it's kinda flakey. Your best bet would be to have both Palm's connected to the internet and send over it, instead of trying a direct Palm<->Phone<->Phone<->Palm connection. I'd grad a copy of Greg Winton's "Palm OS Network Programming" for lots of samples on using NetLib... Cheers, Gavin.
