My WinXP disk has died on me and i have to wait for a few weeks to be able to afford a new one. This is quite annoying as I now cannot install any software on my Clie NX70V

I am stuck using a Linux machine right now.

But I do have a WiFi card. So I could browse to a palm download site and download software. but there are problems...

1) Most of the software comes as a Zip file. i dont have an UnZip installed

2) Where would I put the PRC file even if i could get hold of one?

3) (A Linux question) Can I get Samba for my Clie. I could cope with mounting a drive on my Linux box...

Are any of these questions overcomeable with a WiFi card?
