I actually got a pocket pc recently and I've been playing with java on it. It would actually be possible to have a java bbowl on it, but it would require a bit of work since the newest java version on the pocket pc is about 1.2 and java bbowl currently need 1.3 or higher. I seriously doubt there are many people besides me and you that would like to see these tools (PBEM or java bbowl) on it though. :)

It is unlikely the PBEM tool could use much of its existing code base (delphi I believe) as I don't think there is anything on the pocket pc that supports it. I don't think the pocket pc even has visual basic and that is a microsoft product.

Actually I am getting my first Pocket PC this Thursday, with a Wi-Fi Lan card so that I can sit on my front porch and surf the internet, play MP3's over my wireless network. I would LOVE to see PBEM on the Pocket PC... or JavaBowl for that matter... would be pretty sweet.

Also if there was a Pocket PC/Mobile version of TBB that would RULE!
