PDA Development using Delphi

[tjcusick]

Does anyone have a demo or know of a website that I can look at for PDA development using Delphi?

I currently work with Delphi 2007 and would just like to start tinkering around with PDA development.
I tried using google to find something but there is nothing readily available on the subject. so if anyone out there has any experience creating PDA programs using Delphi I would really like to talk to you....

Thanks very much

I think there are two main PDA platforms: Palm and Microsoft. There are three platforms if you include Symbian which is the dominant mobile phone platform.

Winsoft produced a Delphi style development environment, PocketStudio, for the Palm operating system. I believe PocketStudio was actually written using Delphi.

PocketStudio is available on a 45 day free trial. I downloaded it a couple of years ago and it looked promising but I never had time to investigate PocketStudio fully.

About a year ago, I asked the UK Borland people if Delphi was a suitable vehicle for developing for the Microsoft mobile platform. They told me it was difficult and suggested I looked at JBuilder instead to produce Java applications.

I am pretty sure that Java is the way to go because you should be able to get portability across the mobile platforms.
