A little further detail on how this works for local files...

I created a basic HelloWorld .jad and .jar file.  It runs fine on the WTK.  

I copied the .jad and .jar files manually to my Palm device (to a memory card and to the device itself), but I do not see the application on the device.  

Is there any way to specific the .jad file for a local file on the Palm device?  On a Memory Card?  I tried leaving off the http:// on the URL but this did not seem to work.  

Any ideas?  Thanks ahead of time.
