Anti-Virus for PDAs/Handhelds?
Does anyone know if antivirus programs exist for PDAs and handhelds? Specifically, I'm looking to protect my Palm TX. It has WiFi and BlueTooth capabilities and can surf the 'Net and handle e-mail.
I look and look on some of the better software websites, and I see anti-virus programs for Palm handhelds, but the last time any of them have seen an update has been YEARS.
Is PalmOS just something that hackers, etc., don't bother with?
What about firewalls?

There may be a AV program, I think Norton made/makes one for PDAs (depending of course on which pda you have).
Firewalls aren't needed *if* you aren't offering up services that you don't want to allow people to connect to, no matter the platform. unfortunately, windows offers up so many services by default that you *must* have one on a windows machine.
All that said, my PDA runs Linux, so it really doesn't matter to me...0
