Hi

We need to develope a mobile application where client can be Palm or
PocketPC device (preferably PocketPC)
and the Server is Oracle 9 on Sun Solaris.

Some data will be logged into PDA device and stored in the local database.
Thereafter it needs to connect to Oracle and INSERT into it.

We do not want to use any third party sw as far as possible. The client does
not have App Server (so web services is not possible)

If we have to use Palm device what are the solutions?
If we have to use PocketPC device what are the solutions?

Please suggest various options that can be implemented.

Our preferred platforms are
a.
PocketPC 2003, .net2003

or

b.
PalmOS and AppForge MobileVB.

thanks and regards

Just create a web service that'll talk to Oracle db and call it from
PocketPC.
