Does anyone have any idea how the AOL software on the zoomer
accesses the PalmAddress info.

is it reading the file directly?

or is it using the GEOS IPC (can't remember the GEOS name...IACP...anyway...)
to launch PalmAddress as a server?

for those who don't know what I'm talking about...when you use the AOL mail
you can press the [address book] icon and get an alphabetic list of all
the names in the PalmAddress Book Document and then when you select that 
person (or persons) AOL will pull the aol-id or their e-mail id from the
document and use it to mail to that person.  this happens pretty fast so it
made me wonder how they doit?

also has anyone noticed the Zoomer (w/AOL) will talk to you when you have mail!
