I have created a program under PalmOS already opening a socket and trying to connect to say google.com, and it will not connect because i can't seem to get it any sort of connectivity to the internet via the Emulator.

In the Emulator/Simulator, you must check the "Redirect NetLib calls to Host TCP/IP" setting. Then it will connect through your Windows internet connection.


> Lets say i had a real palm pilot in my hand with my application on it, where would its connection come from?

There are a lot of possiblities...
- WLAN
- Connection via Bluetooth or Infrared to cell phone and then GSM/GPRS
- Bluetooth Access Point
- Modem attached to serial port
- ...

Do Palm's support any sort of 802.11b network cards?

The PalmOne Tungsten C does, several Sony Clie devices do and there is a WLAN SD-card for newer PalmOne devices.


I wrote e-mails years ago with my black and white Palm III connected through my cell phone! I even synced AvantGo with my Palm III connected with a self-made serial cable to my computers external 28.8 modem. And you say PalmOS does not have connectivity!!
