IR communication between a Palm and a PC
Dear Developers,
I am currently working on an application that requires me to transfer data between a Palm and a Windows PC using the infrared port on my PC. I've taken a look into the commapi, but have not had much success so far with establishing communication and transferring data. I was wondering if anyone could give me any ideas about how to accomplish this and I would appreciate it greatly if someone could send me some code that I could take a look at. My email address is chaffee009@hotmail.com and thank you all for your time.

do you have to do it in java? its just that i know theres a lot of development tools for the Palm, including one that uses visual basic (AppForge, check it out... think its at Appforge.net).
Sun released a micro edition of the jdk, just awhile ago, so that might help too..look into that. I dont know much about it really, except what i learned from skimming a book at a bookstore. from what i know though, it works well with Palm devices.
Well, what I am primarily trying to do for now is transfer data through my IR port on my PC to the palm and receive data from the palm into the IR port on my pc via a java program. I don't really need to write any palm applications, at least for now, but I will remember your comments when I get to that point.
