As per the note above, the chances that *anything* in Ethereal that it 
doesn't already do is on the horizon are close to zero.

The chances probably aren't much better for Wireshark, even though it's 
actively being developed:

	1) I don't know whether the Windows CE version of WinPcap is actively 
being developed - it's not a project from the WinPcap developers, it's a 
side project;

	2) I don't think anybody's looking at porting Wireshark itself to 
Windows CE;

	3) such a port would probably involve significant UI changes, similar 
to the ones made to create Zethereal from Ethereal (Zethereal is a port 
of Ethereal to the Sharp Zaurus, which has the advantage that it's 
running Linux so the code that talks to UN*X Just Works; the UI code was 
changed to use, I think, QTopia), due to the smaller screen size.
