Scott, another idea. I know that it's not what you want, but consider it 
nevertheless.

All the virus scanners for PalmOS that I am familiar with don't update their 
definitions directly (i.e., not by connecting to a virus definitions database 
distribution site with the PDA). Instead, they have a conduit which runs on the 
PC, takes care to download the latest virus definitions and to put them on the 
device during a HotSync.

Not as good as being able to download directly from the device - but probably 
good enough, given that there hasn't been a need for new virus definitions for 
this OS for years and that just about everybody HotSyncs their device at least 
once a week. And, while working on the PC site (from the conduit), you can 
easily implement whatever comminication protocols you want - it's basically a 
DLL running under Windows.

Regards,
Vesselin
