Is the PCMCIA-232/4 compatable with Pocket PC/PDA?

I am interested in integrating a pocket pc or pda (no moving parts) with the pcmcia-232/4 for some pseudo-realtime applications (anything rs-232 is pseudo realtime IMHO). The Pocket PC will collect/manage data from the rs-232 and issue commands to the rs-232 ports. I would prefer to use winCE as my OS (not my choice but I did not make the requirement)and a simple high level language to control the ops (again, high level languages are nearly always pseudo-realtime IMHO).

What would NI recommend as far as obtaining compatability of the pocket pc/pda, pcmcia-232/4, and win CE?
Also, does NI have any "high level" language support for managing data and issuing commands?

Thanks,
KTM

LabVIEW PDA (http://sine.ni.com/apps/we/nioc.vp?cid=12219〈=US) is the recommended high level language support for managing data and issuing commands. It was developed for both Palm OS and Pocket PCs. Currently there is not a pcmcia-232/4 driver written for either the pocket pc or palm os. If you could find a PCMCIA serial card with driver (dll) written for the pocket pc, it could be interfaced through a call library function node.
