So Palm's IP stack can't have either.
To check all addresses in use on a subnet one would have to ping each one. Doing a ping broadcast is even worse; it can cause a huge utilisation peak when all the receivers reply and thus stopping other traffic in that time; various OSs chose not to respond to broadcasts for that reason. -- Alan J.
