Experimenting with electronic commerce on the PalmPilot

Authors: D. Boneh and N. Daswani

Abstract:
The paper describes our experience with implementing an electronic payment system for the PalmPilot. Although Palm OS lacks support for many desired security features, we are able to build a system suitable for micro-payments. We discuss the advantages and disadvantages of using a PDA to make secure payments as opposed to using a smartcard or a desktop PC.
