Tools for the Ipaq PDA.

I was just wanting to know if there are any decent network tools available for the Windows Pocket PC 2003, OS. I recently purchased an HP Ipaq, it's a sweet PDA, with built in Wi-Fi and built in keyboard.

Mini-stumbler doesn't run on this system, so does anyone have a program they could recommend, to retrieve basic network info, any type of network info tool.


Thanks in advance,

Irongeek: For future reference, try not to post in thread's with post's that have blinking date's. This mean's the thread or post is old and it is usually frowned upon when an old thread is brought up. Just trying to help ;)

Sorry, just wanted to relate useful information. If a thread is old, but you think there is new information about the same question should you just post a similar question again with a link to the old thread?

Thanks for the new info. Just got my iPAQ shipped off to HP so when I get it back I'm gonna be lookin for some new toys.

If you just want a PDA for network diagnostics go with a used Zaurus 5500. You can run all sorts of apps on it:

Wellenreiter II
Kismet
Zethereal
Ettercap
Ngrep
TCPDump
Nmap
Nemessis
OpenZaurus
Change your MAC Address

I got mine about half a year back for about $200 with Wi-Fi card.

I have a hp5555 it was just doing some weird stuff so I sent it back to them. Called them yesterday and they sent a box today. Should be back in a day or two I think. The other day they had a new HD for my tablet mailed to me within 12 hours.
