Can the Ipaq be used as a dumb terminal?

Anybody know if the Ipaq can be used as a dumb terminal for connection to devices with an RS232 interface? Or know of any software that will allow this?

Thanks in advance

No reason why not, it has a COM port. I would do a google search; there are a number of sites packed with pocket/pc software, shareware and freeware.

My sentiments entirely......Why not?

But can I find any software.......No

Perhaps I am searching for the wrong thing.
