Do you know how to develop Dune apps in Flash Lite?

If the answer is yes, I might have a job for you. I need remote access (preferably over HTTP, but surprise me) to the product ID of the device. I did some reading on Flash Lite but failed to grasp the bigger picture of it all. All I know is that as a Flash developer, you have access to the "ExtCommand" class which defines this function:

public static function getProductId():String;

Anybody up for the challenge?

I have written tiny C programs that run on the Dune and respond to HTTP requests. No Flash crap needed. The user would have to manually run a dsf (or at least have telnet enabled, to allow remote installation) to install this program on his/her Dune. Once installed it will stay on System Storage and always be active.

Alternatively, if the Dune has telnet enabled, you could script a telnet session to get the product ID. I've done something like this in Ruby using its Net::Telnet package.

If you are still interested I do have some ideas to get the product ID over http (using cgi-bin and shell). It is also possible using a DSF file.
