The problem is that the PDA won't be running J2SE, but instead J2ME which
it appears no one here is familiar with. In a previous thread I mentioned
that it doesn't have the java.sql package, but it is available as a JSR
(with more limited functionality).
The bottom line is that the information requestor is going to have to do
some digging himself to try and build or run the postgresql jdbc driver on
such a platform because no one else has the motivation, knowledge, and
resources to do so.
