Wireless RS-232 for Palm and Other Devices?

The Serial Anonymous Coward asks: "I have all these old RS-232 interfaced items (my palm pilot, trg pro, etc.) and i really like them for what they do, but can't understand why there aren't any dirt cheap limited range wireless serial ports for them? Just want a small dongle to hook into my desktop, and the same for my palm pilot--so in my house, within a small distance (50 feet, maybe more if possible) I can use this to browse the web, check my e-mail, whatever. I mean I don't need much faster than 56k, and less probably wouldn't be bad (how fast can a palm process the data anyway). I know the laplink people had a product like this years ago--didn't last long, I'd love to get a hold of something similar....anyone working on it for a hobby? I don't need bluetooth (but a serial -> bluetooth adapter would be fine)"
