IBM has introduced specific iPhone/iPod touch support in Rational HATS
(Host Access Transformation Services), so that's one nice option. More
information here:

That'd be a universal approach -- the only client requirement is a Web

IBM could probably pay some 12-year-old $50 to write it between classes at
grammar school.
My nephew (he's 12) told me last week that he was upset that his Java
teacher didn't even know how to properly set up the IDE to write and debug.
I felt really old.

I'm not sure about Android (being a WebOS person), but if you're
worried about the Terms of Service, Verizon dropped the price of the
Palm Pre/Pixi mobile hotspot to $0. Previously they charged for it.

There is a TN3270 Lite app for the iPhone. Coincidentally, someone was

John,
Android apps like the free "EasyTether Lite" can be used to tether
your laptop to the cell data network on most Android phones.
The app is basically a NAT router written in Java, and doesn't require
