Palm Pilot Demo Setup

Follow these two steps:

   2. Install Handweb (or any other browser for palm pilots) that you like on your system.

Steps to download and install the Palm Pilot Emulator:

Download the Palm Pilot Emulator from http://www.palm.com/devzone/pose/pose.html for Windows NT. Next, you must obtain a ROM Image File for which you need to follow the instructions on http://www.palm.com/devzone/pose/pose.html.

Note: Be sure to get the ROM file corresponding to the Emulator OS release.

   1. Extract the Emulator and the ROM files using WinZip.
   2. Click on the "Emulator" program in the directory where you unzipped Emulator and Select  "New Emulator Session".
   3. Click the Browse... button to specify the path for the ROM image file. Set it to point to the location where your ROM image file is located.
   4. Save the configuration

If all goes well, you should be able to see the Palm Pilot Emulator on your desktop!

Steps to install a browser on your Palm Pilot

You need to have a browser running on your Palm Emulator to do anything meaningful on the web. So you need to install one.

Preparation: Palm Pilot Configuration

Right click anywhere on the palm emulator and choose Settings|Properties...
Check the "Redirect NetLib calls to host TCP/IP"

Now you should be able to specify URL to your demo just as you do on a browser on your computer. Enjoy!
