Weird, my Handera 330 (PalmOS 3.5.3) connected via wireless survives a
TCP connect nmap with no problems:
simond@laptop:~$ nmap palm
Starting nmap V. 2.54BETA30 ( www.insecure.org/nmap/ )
All 1549 scanned ports on palm.internal.irrelevant.org (192.168.253.3) are: closed
Nmap run completed -- 1 IP address (1 host up) scanned in 25 seconds
