I've tried the zoomer apps which aren't included in PalmConnect, and for the
most part they work OK.  Except AOL, which I wasn't able to get working at all.
Chances are the Datebook, Addressbook, and Notebook will work in the Ensemble
environment with a little tweaking of the environment.  BTW, this may represent
some kind of license violation on your Zoomer, and so please do whatever you do
after reading the license which came with your Zoomer.

I'm 99% sure that this won't work.

PalmConnect isn't all _that_ expensive, plus you get the connectivity features.
