RE: Security?
For one, doesn't all information have to be accessed via a network and/or stored internally in the device and not on external/removable storage media?
Are Palm OS devices still holding up strong in the healthcare world like they were a few years ago? Last time I asked around, there were numerous doctors & nurses using (usually) T|C or T|T3 era devices...

WiFi
With it, they can take advantage of the hospital's infrared, WAN and wireless connections, ensuring that critical information is always at their fingertips wherever they are - inside or out.
Too bad those docs are stuck using AT&T's data connection instead of WiFi. Most hospitals have excellent internal WiFi infrastructures these days and yet discourage "cellphone" usage. Guess the docs are exempt from that rule!?!

RE: WiFi
Fairfax Hospital VA has the large sign in front saying to turn off cell phones. Most doctors offices have signs saying, " due to sensitive medical equipment please turn your cell phones off".
The last time I overnighted at the hospital none of the staff minded my phone.
Maybe their coffee pots are shielded from the phones now.

Security?
* Did they remember to defend the various caches?
* What kind of security measures do they have on the server that would prevent someone else using a Treo or other device from accessing PHI directly? e.g. Defense against Hacking.
