Can anyone shed light on the potential relationship between Sun's Jini and CTXS' ICA? I read last week's Fortune story on Bill Joy's latest marvel, Jini and its potential as a lightweight, universal client advertising and control program for network-attached devices. Yet I couldn't infer clearly its competitive or integral relationship to a distribution protocol (or delivery boy as Mike says) like ICA. Thanks. dd

Mike: Citrix as messenger seems great to me but I was under the impression Citrix needed wire. Wrong? Both CDMA and GSM can carry data and the whole purpose of the CDMA 3rd generation is rapid data transmission. As of now thought that Palm Pilot - by far the most popular PDA - uses its own proprietory system and MSFT is promoting appliances (not very successfully yet) using Windows CE. Guess I still am confused how rpt how Citrix acts as messenger in wireless. Would appreciate words of wisdom. Chaz
