It boggles my mind that after all these years of web development, and
PDA work, that there isn't an easy to find solution/suggestion for
running web apps natively on the Pocket PC's. It would seem a natural
match in my mind for geeks and their toys. Any pointers people have on
even just PHP running on Windows Mobile(Pocket PC) 2003 would be
appreciated. Another thing to look at is AppWeb, though it hasn't been
ported to the Windows Mobile platform yet, and I haven't figured out how
to compile it for that to see how hard the port would be.
