Howdy --

I'm trying to figure out how to get my Tungsten C to authenticate onto
my institution's 802.1x-protected WLAN, but the only 802.1x client I can
find for PalmOS is the Aegis client, which doesn't implement the
EAP-TTLS protocol our network guys selected for our wireless deployment.

And -- mentioned as an FYI rather than an effort to stir up trouble by
heretically mentioning a competing platform here in this Palm forum :-)
-- I can't even get my iPaq 5450 to authenticate properly using Funk's
Odyssey client.  It didn't work at all with the original PPC'02 loaded
on the iPaq, so I upgraded to '03 and waited 'til Funk released Odyssey
for PPC'03 around T'giving, and now I can authenticate, but when I
power-off (i.e., sleep/suspend) the iPaq and then power-on again, half
the time Odyssey reports it can no longer find the built-in WiFi
adapter, and the only way to fix that is to reset the whole device.

So unless somebody out there has a magic tip, it appears that there
doesn't exist any PDA with *built-in* 802.11b which can do 802.1x
authentication via EAP-TTLS.  Any magicians out there?  :-)  I've got an
application that's ready to go, and colleagues here and elsewhere who
want it, but I gotta have a PDA with built-in WiFi that can do 802.1x
via EAP-TTLS.  No built-in/802.1x/EAP-TTLS, no application.  Woe is me.
