Accessing WebDAV on PDAs

Saqib Ali asks: "Nowadays, WebDAV (Web based Distributed Authoring and Version) is becoming very common in large corporations. We are also adopting WebDAV for file sharing. All the major operating systems support WebDAV, however I was wondering if there is any support for WebDAV on PDAs. I think lots of people will be interested in WebDAV support for PDAs. Does anyone know of a WebDAV client for PDAs? Especially for Pocket PCs, since they have Pocket Word and Excel? If not, I would be interested in starting a Open Source project for implementing this. Any good ideas on how/where to start?"

Top Gun SSH [offshore.com.ai] is open source, but it's for the Palm - I don't know if it'd be a good starting point for what you're looking for, but it works.

Well, this is not really the best of advice, but it is an option nontheless.

You could always mod your PocketPC to run Linux, if you've got one of the 'supported' models. I've got a Toshiba e310, so no conversion for me.

You could give Mocha Telnet a try. It has SSH and Telnet. It's what I use. License is $25 for single user.

Well, I use the built-in screen keyboard right now myself; not the most elegant solution, I assure you.

I'm considering looking for a keyboard/case combination for mine. Though, in the end, I might wait until AFTER I upgrade next so that I can pick up something with wireless LAN.

Depending on what your needs are, you might be better off with a Zaurus. By your commentary, I'm guessing you're somewhat high end on the tech scale, so a Zaurus might be just what you really need.

Brevity was never your forte, was it? ;^)

Have you tried Linux Familiar or Intimate ?

[i-neo]

I own an iPaq, and I've tried the Familiar [handhelds.org] distribution as well as the intimate [handhelds.org] which is a full blown one.

I'm pretty sure that using the last one you may have tools that are WebDAV enabled.

Furthermore, that's all open source. Linux rocks.

PerlDAV

[nufsaid]

It isn't a really user friendly solution, but couldn't PerlDAV work? Although that depends on what you specifically want to do. Provided you can get a perl distribution for your platform of choice...
